• you left our world
    clinging tightly
    the school locked down
    the yelling around

    only fourteen
    middle school ending
    high school in the fall
    barely lived

    we heard the news in english class
    two of your best friends
    bawling, 31 year old man crying

    you were a jock
    yet you stood up for those being disrespected
    not one to hold back
    we have no negative memories of you

    may you rest in piece
    a tribute to you
    may you rest in piece
    tribute to a dead boy
