Maleek S — 14 year old boy
And I will never allow it to be
Ive seen too many mothers
Fall to their knee
Children on break from school
Unable to enjoy the sun
Fearing the fate
Of a cold, cruel gun
A mother so tender
whispers final words to her son
"I'm so sorry this happened to you"
"I tried to protect you"
And there was nothing else to be done
