Darkness.
Countless lives gone, families shattered.
Silence.
Months since we’ve heard the sound of laughter.
Crying. Shaking. Coughing. Grieving.
Life can be ever so deceiving.
Behind the masks there are faces
People starving for their loved one’s embraces
Hatred.
Hoards of people unjustly hurt because of their color.
Division
The country is collapsing. When can we win?
Killing. Looting. Hurting. Dying
Life can be ever so deceiving.
Our dead brothers and sisters. Remember their faces?
People starving for their loved one’s embraces
