Shawn
Shawn took a handful of pills and jumped in the river
Sunday morning January 12
They found him cold near the birches
There is no comfort in this world
I remember the night I tried to find you
Who is brave and who’s crying in the dark
Everything I’ve ever known is you
Everything I’ve ever loved is you
Is there light wherever there is dark
Comfort when the pain is hard
Strength when you’re at your weakest
Morning when the night is charred
There’s a fountain singing you a song
I can't tell the lightness from the black
I’m drawn to the water just like you
I’d take your place in on the rack
If you hear this say a little prayer for me
This cell is not the streets you've run
My back is failing with this cross
Scarred and waiting for the sun
