the 27 club

in a week a young man
should turn 29.
he should celebrate another year,
and that energy that he always has
should shine, because he is happy.

but that young man
will never turn 29.
not in a week, a year, or a century.
he is stuck in the sands of time.
forever caught on film.

his life simply ceased to exist
at only 27.
he won't be coming back.
not in this life.
we don't deserve that.
