Why Me?

Tragedy crept up on innocent people,
Because some forsaken soul was touched with evil.
We can't get back what we had yesterday,
And we feel like things will never be okay.
We lost our fortune, our happiness, and the ones whom we love
There's no one there, for a reason we can't think of.
I say "WE" because you are not alone,
A million others cant believe it, they can't condone.

All of the memories and recollections will be with you in every way.
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger,
Even though the ones you love aren't with you any longer
Don't ask God "WHY?!", don't condemn him from your life,
Just ask him to guide you through the day and the night.
Hold on to the precious moments you've shared,
Let go of the pain and agony you've beared.
I send my condolences in this time of need,
But remember, never ask the question "WHY ME?!"
