Analysis of How do you kill someone?



How do you kill someone? I have seen dead people a dead man in a shower a girl prone in a field. How do you see the light  of human life and end it? What is life something that makes a body move and laugh and cry. How do you end that light you saw in her eyes? She needed to take a nap and she laid her head in your lap in total trust and you ended that light. Why would you kill that life and never hear them laugh cry sing dance? Why you kill someone?
