we have guilty people walking free
innocent people walking in heaven too soon
today,
i could be the mother watching the murderer of my son walk free
a child who did nothing wrong that day
it was not the wrong time and wrong place for him
yet one man's wrong actions towards him
and today that man has been given freedom
even if he stole a child's freedom (for no reason)
justice does not seem to be fair
where is the common sense
i am sick to my stomach
today,
the world doesn't make sense
i am heartbroken
the tears keep rolling
today,
i think of my boys
my innocent boys
i fear this world will swallow them up
today, is a sad day for everyone's freedom.
this is not the greatest country in the world
freedom, liberty, and justice - not for all
i am discouraged
i am losing hope
i can't stop crying
help me understand
**********
let me end with a quote from miami gardens mayor oliver gilbert: "Let us honor Trayvon by working together to build a world that never allows life to be lost to ignorance, indifference, or idiocy."
may there be peace on earth for all sooner rather than later
RIP Trayvon Martin
