The many suicides of black men

The many suicides of black men Black men deserve love too Even if its just a simple 'I love you' The world tells them they have to be tough But enough is enough If you're complicit In being a witness Of their mental health issues Don't be confused If they choose suicide Don't be surprised I mean you didn't care when they were alive So dont you dare cry How many times are we going to let this happen? How many times will we as a society ignore them? Because our black men deserve better They deserved to be treasured Because if we don't we'll lose them forever As a society we can let them suffer But we can be their protectors
