Shot in the dark...

Shot in the dark,

He made a mark.

No one knew what he wanted, 

if only his last wish was granted.

Captured in the alley, right from where he began, 

Trying to evade them, he always ran.

Picked up a gun when he was fifteen, 

In one of his neighbourhoods, kinda green.

Grew up playing with aunts & cousins,

They expected him to bring home trophies, in dozens.

But who would have thought he's the same kid from the park,

Where he was Shot in the dark...
