Granite Shadows
In the heart of Granite City, where the streets run cold,
A story unfolds, heavy, untold.
East 25th, where the whispers creep,
A man met the night, eternal sleep.

The call came in, a voice full of dread,
“There’s a shadow hanging, a soul has fled.”
Blue lights flashed, sirens screamed,
A scene too real, like a nightmare dreamed.

The block stood still, the air was tight,
Neighbors peered out into the night.
Who was he? What led him here?
Questions lingered, thick with fear.

The badge took notes, the tape was strung,
A life cut short, a song unsung.
No name released, no story clear,
Just the weight of loss, heavy to bear.

Granite streets, they hold their pain,
Echoes of sorrow in the falling rain.
The city watches, the truth unfolds,
In the shadows of Granite, where stories are told.
