Tortured
A friend dies in an instant
At the hands of one trusted
Taken away forever more
Not able to settle the score
Vengeance and sorrow take hold
The young life willing to fold
A single tear wafts down the cheek
Not once able to speak
Wanting to run and hide
Fear from the terror inside
A happy world gone in a flash
Forever to be covered in black
