This poem is not for contest. My cousin was murdered shot in the face this month and thankfully the killer was caught. He was in his fourties' while the victim my cousin was 29. He was buried this week.
Bullets have no eyes In the mourning a son won’t rise No plan in life for demise Black men hear our cries Stop shooting killing each other We need love not hate brother Time unwinds while you slang Dealing in death please change One mother and father miss The hope denied by this Feud so rude and senseless That dude who killed their kid You think you had reason to End a life will bring misery blue For you have to face the truth Humanity is lacking in you You can never undo evil deed No matter what you plead At night your closed eyes see His eyes as life leaves he bleeds Now your family members know Who you really are in your soul A killer despite reasons why In a cell of a jail you will reside When you choose to kill a man You turn from God’s holy hand You do the devil’s work indeed You become a slave never free So we lost you too you see No longer an asset to be No longer in the community Not free to thrive and dream Can you at least give back By deterring youth from your path Can you tell truth and testify Reasons bullets have no eyes
