He was there, in the crowd.
People, choked with emotion,
gazed at him with admiration.
He was proud, yet so humble.
Weak, yet so powerful.
Soon, harsh reality replaced the
pleasant oblivion.
The trigger was pulled, and in
the midst of chaos two bloody
hands grasped life, just a moment,
before it slipped away.
Then all was done.
And thousands of dreams were lost
because of one person's insanity.
