    You gave your place in fastest way.
    You went running prone
    Returned supine
    With hopeless locked eyes.
     
    Olympics is a festival no one should die
    The tragedies are tragedies no one can avoid.
    If it was man made
    Must get punishment.
     
    Man made mistakes
    Gave others reward.
    Inefficient Hands
    Signed your unexpected death!
     
    We are in tears
    Can we forget?
    Pains remain decades
    For every innocent death.
     
    We do pray and say,
    “God helps your mother and no one else!”

    We pray for Armenian Team rewards with a safe return to their city and their beloveds.
