just another dead body

by Antwan Fields - Aries

just another dead body lying on the street
staring up at everybody that he meets
just another moment of silence for someone that had his life
brought to an abrupt end
another funeral that we have to sit through
another family that gets shredded
its not just another dead body
its
someone
you
and 
i 
used 
to 
know.

Reason for writing:
