Ryan White (December 6, 1971 – April 8, 1990)

There are very few words that could fit in here. I believe Michael's come closest. 

Ryan White 

                           by Michael Jackson

Ryan White, symbol of justice 

Or child of innocence, messenger of love 

Where are you now, where have you gone? 

Ryan White, I miss your sunny days 

We carelessly frolicked in extended plays 

I miss you, Ryan White 

I miss your smile, innocent and bright 

I miss your glory, I miss your light 

Ryan White, symbol of contradiction 

Child of Irony, of child of fiction? 

I think of your shattered life 

Of your struggle, of your strife 

While ladies dance in the moonlit night 

Champagne parties on chartered cruises 

I see your wasted form, your ghostly sight 

I feel your festering wounds, your battered bruises 

Ryan White, symbol of agony and pain 

Of ignorant fear gone insane 

In a hysterical society 

With free-floating anxiety 

And feigned piety 

I miss you, Ryan White You showed us how to stand and fight 

In the rain you were a cloudburst of joy 

The sparkle of hope in every girl and boy 

In the depths of your anguished sorrow 

Was the dream of another tomorrow.
