Best Poem part 2

Stop the Violence
By Paulette Ray

A breezy night in May
walking across the street, he was coming
I was saying in my head "not today"
he saw no one so toward me, he started running

I saw him with a gun in a black hoodie
he shot me multiple times and there was pain
he couldn't just kill me could he?
I knew it was the end of the game

After he was done
he decided to watch me die
he thought it was fun
but I was wondering why

The next day the news revealed that the suspect was not found
From the heavens down in my moms living room, I heard a whimpering sound
