Poetry BLM – Temitayo Oshiyemi

Some, just want to live,

Some just want to give.

Some may be begging on their knees 

Saying please. 

.

He couldn’t breathe 

The police just deceive.

If a black human being dies,

Does this mean that we have to hide in disguise?

.

I say no!

We have to show!

Show our anger for the events that happen in our lives. 

The events that include weapons like knives. 

.

This has to STOP! 

I don’t want to see the black community drop.

I want the black community to rise,

And I want to see that happen with my own eyes.
