Still We Rise


You might believe it was

Love

But do you even know the meaning?

The lessons of

Unconditional love

Acceptance

And forgiveness

Have you ever experienced

Love?

Because your love was like

Poison

Seeping within

And destroying kindness

That stood within its

Path

Do you remember?

The love you showed

The love of digging and eating trash

As if I was a burden

Or even an animal

Your love was hardened from

Day one

There was no chance more


Could be given

Because you forgot long ago

The meaning of unconditional

Love

There was no love when you

Did not defend me

When you said there are other

Other black families

Who stole your heart?

Will you tell me?

For I did love you

And look up

Towards you

Was my love not enough for

You?
