Why did this happen?
I walk to school in my small, blood red
 dress while a bag in hand.
 I see my two best friends, they were in
 their blue dresses and a 
 backpack in hand. 
 I smile at them while walking to my little class.
 My brother is in there reading his book 
 and staring up at me.
 
 
 
 
 Pow! Bang! Scream! As I hear these noises,
 all I can do is watch the people
 running and getting shot. I see my first friend
 get shot as the blood gushed out.
 I started to cry as my best friend hit the 
 ground. I could only stay under
 the desk. I’m only 7-years old and 
 seeing this terror around me.
 
 
 
 
 As my brother gets shot, I finally stood up
 waiting to see how hurt he was...
 Bang! I scream in pain as I see the world
 flash around me. The world goes black.
 As I wake up, a picture of my family and friends 
 flash at me. I see a bright light 
 coming towards me and all I could do is 
 watch it as it whispered, “Come
 young child. I’ve been waiting...” As I follow
 this light, my brother and friends are waving at me. 
 I smile and start to cry.
 “Young child, you are safe from
 harm and you will watch over your family.”
 I see a hand pull me up to this white
 place and this is my final life. Ending at seven
 as a small angel.
 
 
 
 Now, I watch over my family cry at the 
 scary sight of the shooting.
 I miss them but I will always be with 
 them as a guardian angel.
