Dear Mama From: Trayvon Martin

You made it easier for me, now I can spread my wings. yet you made it harder for my brother, he can barely breathe. I'm here with my lord enjoying my life. yet my family on earth is not feeling Alright suffering from migraine, stress, and chest pain. thoughts of suicide, so much on their shoulders. as I'm here watching my mother getting older. my brother, my dad is crying on her shoulder. she's so strong, so brave, so undefeated. no matter how the trial end, she's my queen. mama you been under so much pressure and stress. I been trying to tell you my souls laid to rest. not for you and my father, I guess. you wasn't there but you know the truth. God have given them visions to you. but rest assure mama ,I'm near you everday. yet It's tearing my heart to pieces to see you hurt this way. I see you laying in my bed, just to be close to me. smelling my clothes for sweet memories. grandma, cousins, aunts, and uncles. put on your helmets, put on your armor. the devil is fighting extremely dirty. with his lies, arrogance, and schemes. in the courtroom head high as a king. but the real king is next to me. the life I live is what I dreamed. yet my family is living a nightmare. I'm in heaven, their in hell. dry your eyes mama, justice will be served. you and I both know, what I didn't deserve. was on my way to kiss you mom had my skittles and tea. tried to keep it moving, but the devil harassed me. every tear you cry I'm here to dry your eyes. wake up and love each day moma. and most of all pray moma. rip trayvon
