A Legend Died Today.

I have nothing but sadness in . When I am sad, I write even worse poems than usual. Yes, I know there were so many other people lost their life today, but I cannot get the image of head of a father looking down at his scared little , knowing he could not save her.

Did they know
Could they know
Did he hold her hand
And put his arms around her
Did he lie her and tell her it would be alright
Did he believe it would be
After all, he was Kobe
The legend on the court
A hero for people everywhere
Arguably of the greatest of all time
Nothing bad could happen
And yet, somehow it did
The world seems so bleak now
So empty
Too much loss and sadness
Too many questions that will never be answered
But I hope there was time enough to tell her
All the things he wanted to say
It may somehow take some of the sting of knowing
A legend died today.
