CRYING OUTLOUD
by
Anne Strausser
GUNS, LETS FACE IT THE TRAUMA'S NOT FUN.
What makes the desperation so loud...
Running the streets, Betraying your life,
taking away the life of another is heavy.
Not realizing, the outcome on the world,
from your actions is deadly.
Why chance the odds when it comes to guns,
there's no room for mistakes.
Be responsible, keep them locked up and safe.
If you're running learn to stay in place.
BECAUSE ONCE YOU PULL THAT TRIGGER,
A WORTHY LIFE WILL BE NO TRACE.
Do something good with your life,
make yourself proud.
But please, ... Don't pick up any gun for crying outloud
