Paul Bell

Assassinated

The newspaper blew in a twisting fashion

 

Stopping only to hug the wall

 

The words jumped out

 

Assassinated

 

The night already black

 

Such an important man

 

People wept openly

 

They arrested a man

 

Though, he died too

 

Time went on

 

Mystery built up through the years

 

They all had their own theories

 

Films and documentaries proved one thing

 

Death was cold in the afternoon

 

People always say in conversations

 

What were you doing that day

 

The newspaper blew in a twisting fashion

 

Stopping only to hug the wall

 

The night we said goodbye forever

 

The words jumped out

 

Assassinated

 

Just how I felt.
