The Inner Shout #Rhyme #Unapologetic

– A close friend helped with the title, and the artwork. Shoutout to her. –

A heart in question,
its intentions, unclear.
To some, it is genuine,
to others, it is feared.
.
Damage that is immense,
running deeper than a holler.
Weary of passionate voices,
disguising filth, and squalor.
.
Why trust your voice,
that’s been falsified by many?
Why let it flow,
these thoughts worth a penny?
.
For years, it’s just been us,
a community standing alone.
Degraded, tortured, and killed,
yet forced to just move on.
.
Accepting a half-assed life,
forced onto us, by you.
Ignored, and made silent,
when we tried to speak our truths.
.
Why now, and not before,
do you wish to share our passion?
Fighting for a better life,
as we started rising from the ashes.
.
Why stand beside us, now,
where you stood on us, back then?
Why reach to protect our six,
when you were never a helping hand?

😏 You won’t like it, here. It’s dark. 😏 😌I am unapologetically me. Embrace me, or, let me go. 😌

    1. Thank you. It’s what I feel deep in my heart. I will never know the true pain because I’ve never experienced it, nor will I, but I try my best to learn, and understand more, each day.
