Ne Puero Gladium
Never give a child a sword
Nor give them a gun
For to so shall begin only this
A cycle of neverending grief, heartache and pain
Darkness forever
No light ever to enter or linger in a room
In a room where a lonesome parent crys
Mourning this advice unheard and unheeded
Ne Puero Gladium
Never give a child a sword
Nor give them a gun
For if you do
Forever with regret as your constant companion shall you live
2008 Ramona Thompson
