BLACK continent where it all began
Love born and bred within
Africa weeps for her children
Cold, bloodied, and greedy hands
Keep them from her warm embraceLIVES abruptly snatched away
Ingenious plans to bring about pain
Viciously trying to achieve their gain of
Ensuing a hate so deep that the
Spirits of ancestors rage from the beyondMATTER only in the meantime
Attention will soon shift
Thinking that time will heal this wound
Time is up, the wounds are still fresh. Put an
End to an endless pain. Cleanse the soil,
Reclaim the land, and restore the balance.Hey yall! BLACK LIVES MATTER today and every day. That's it.

Anywho (or is it anyhoo🤔), did you like it?
What did you get from it?
Leave some thoughts and see you in the next one 💖
