The Echoes of Tragedy

Title: The Echoes of Tragedy

A moment frozen in time,
An unsuspecting campus engulfed in despair,
Echoes of a man’s twisted mind,
As darkness descended upon the air.

Dreams once alive, now shattered,
Innocence forever lost in the fray,
Tears shed for lives that mattered,
A haunting legacy that will stay.

Amidst the chaos, heroes arose,
Their courage unyielding and brave,
In the face of danger they chose,
To protect and help, their purpose engraved.

Yet questions linger in the aftermath,
Why did he choose this path of sorrow?
A glimpse inside a troubled psychopath,
Seeking solace in his actions, we borrow.

A community bound by resilience,
United to heal and mend,
Though scarred by a senseless violence,
In unity, we will transcend.
