R.I.P. Jr Stolzenburg

i wish i may i wish i might
ask u why that night
why did he stand up
why did he fall out
and slowly stumble about
as he laid there on the road
as silent as can be
his friend looked and said how can this be
when his friend placed his hand upon his chest
he said i felt him breathe as the ambulance came
he was running out of breath
the next morning was his death
