In memory of those at Virginia Tech- Whitewolf01

When I heard of the shooting, I immediately wanted to help ease the pain of those poor families that had to deal with this tragedy. I thought of a poem that expressed what meaningless words and sypathies could not...hope...light...love... This sudden loss of life brought the nation together, in more ways than one...so please...when you read this poem...say a prayer for everyone, because together...we are one...

The day the Rain Turned Red-
In memory of those at Virginia Tech-

Tell me rightly,
Tell me why,
The heavens let loose a dark grey sky,
and 33 souls died,

The day the Rain Turned Red,

Answer my questions,
Answer my cries,
Speak the truth, tell no lies,
As my heart bleeds inside
For the young men and women who lost their lives,

The day the Rain Turned Red

A candle's lit,
A rose is placed,
In memory of those lives he did take,
Rocking the nation in his wake,

The day the Rain Turned Red

Tell me rightly,
Tell me why,
The skies opened up as the angels cried,
and welcomed the spirits too young to die,

The day the Rain Turned Red

Tell me rightly,
Tell me why,
The heavens let loose a dark grey sky,
A country shocked at the souls it lost,

The day the Rain Turned Red

Say goodbye,
To the oned that died,
As we will never forget,

The day the Rain Turned Red

Tell me rightly,
Tell me why,
The hevens let loose a dark grey sky
People mourned and the moon did cry,
When those 33 souls died,

The day the Rain Turned Red.
