The Lockdown of June 10th, 2005
This year was not a rather pleasant one
Some kid tried to hang himself
But in the end, luckilly, he didn't succeed
And now just two weeks before schools out
We're in lockdown
For who knows what reason
We have to stay at school an hour and a half after it ends
Along with the hour of sixth period too
Some people are scared
Some think it's a joke
And others don't know what to do
Then after we get home and watch the news a bit
We find out that some kid thinks it's cool
To come to school and play a prank
On everyone in it
They say he brought a gun to school
But it turns out it wasn't real
He and three others make everyone
Wait in wonder
They bring in the SWAT teams to check
All our classrooms
We weren't even allowed to get our instruments
If we had one
We had to leave at exactly four o' four.
That was probably the most scary thing that all of us will have to endure.
And as I write this poem about what happened that day
Four kids are laughing at what they did that day.
That day was June 10th, 2005
That day will never be forgotten as we live our lives
I bet all of us will remember that day
When we were kept in silence for two and a half hours total
I'm sure the news will never forget
Friends weren't even allowed to say goodbye
Or see ya next year.
Yes we'll see each other on Monday
But some kids will think about it
Over and over throughout the weekend
And maybe a few will cry
