Poem
I love you he said I love you so much I'm never letting go You can't share a love you haven't given to yourself yet So, I dug up the dead pieces of my heart and replanted them Love is the only true form of justice, everything else is just a paper copy And within these printer mouths comes Assumptions that move faster than bullets Opinions that bleed more than bullet wounds Prideful persons pulling triggers like they're picking filters We live in a shoot first society, with dead beat apologies So, I figured I might as well shoot my shot, without knowing that the red beam behind me wasn't from cupid Renegades running for some time now but not from fear Aiming toward change, because social agendas fire at the truth Social schedules would have you believe freedom is a symbol One that flows like winds on a cool fall day under wings The wind moving through her hair like my fingers But the wind that helps a so-called symbol stand Is the same breeze that supports a flag assassinating what it doesn't understand So, the only thing I comprehend is one of my wings comes from you The worlds idea of freedom lives in a cage that travels like a circus Just so you start to believe that your surroundings have changed Why is positive change less common than pistols I think guns were born from fear, that's why it makes them nervous while pointing it at someone Shooting periods and exclamations at nouns simply wanting to survive Protection is just an excuse for the trigger finger to smile, yelling expletives (gun sound) Are you starting to get the picture No, well come here, let's take a picture A photo that goes beyond hate and gives people an opportunity to see the soul that fills the pitcher A real thirst quencher they choose to ignore until inconvenience wants a drink The world will still have the same stains no matter the era, progression, or geography So why not add more love to the discography History always repeats, so I rather make it consecutive with you Making moments into years of memories from Monday's spent with you We need more love in the world, right? Can I start by sharing with you I know our eyes just met but true love breathes like a waterfall True love is when the pitcher is full but doesn't stop pouring And, Black love has an undeniable glow Black love builds empires, and they don't want another Rome In turn they'll say: stay green while planting lies to sow deceit So, if I must die from cracked concrete Ima die, not just for you, but for we Death comes no matter what, but loves leaves legacy The casket closes its eyes, but they'll still see Through the black evanescence we showed the world a heart can still be married into the last name eternity They'll shoot physical bodies, but they'll never kill the divine Our love is lyrical, our love is academical, our love is spherical, but most of all spiritual These words from him kept repeating as she let his spirit go The tears flowed, into the puddles of blood so much so The red became diluted by sadness, anger, revenge, and forgiveness all at the same time She cries hold my hand one more time Then she feels a transparent squeeze reminding her of his smile so kind p.s. she chokes on I wasn't ready to let go...
