The Night Our Lives Changed

Our lives were perfect
We lived a normal life
I was happy when we met
I enjoyed being your wife

We loved each other always
Enjoyed living our lives
Everything changed one day
That night when we died

We went out to an affair
Everything was alright
The evening turned to a nightmare
We were both filled with fright

Chaos and screams heard
People running for cover
Our minds were blurred
I just held my lover

Shots were fired there
Nobody had a chance
The shooter had no care
We would be part of circumstance

We died that night together
Not knowing what happened
Our lives were not better
Our families now feel saddened

What happened was a tragedy
Many lives were lost
So much pain in many families
So much pain at what cost

Author's Note
I wrote this because of the Las Vegas tragedy. I imagined this could have happened to anybody who was there.  October 2017.  May all who were affected find peace.
