Shroud
March 28, 2013
Please tell me it's not true
Tell me it was a mistake
This is a joke too cruel
I cannot be awake
Don't repeat it once more
That won't make it less
This paralyzing core
Of pain deep in my chest
Her tears, her voice are real
His mother gasps for breath
Never felt so surreal
The reality of his death
