Breonna Taylor and George Floyd both matter
Don’t feed the divide created for us
Some say, black woman, you’re not targeted like the black man
Creating resentment
But we are in this together
Don’t minimize our pain
The same attacks, different angles
When you die, we die too
Black man comes from our womb
Your every battle becomes our wound
Even when wronged we protect
When rejected we reflect
The love that you deserve
A love like no other
Tell me if you know that a king lies within a queen
Tell me you know that our eyes have tears from slavery
The scars of abandonment
When at times we are victims and not believed
Thank you Meg
For sharing your truth
Black women can’t protect everyone else and not be protected ourselves
We rise
We fall
We pay the cost
In spaces of perceived power that can strip us of humanity
Tell me is that what you mean by better off?
All that glitters isn’t gold
We take hits when we serve
When we give to a world that does not give back
Do you see yourself in us ?
Thank God for the men who do
Black man we love you and salute you for your vision
A mind with eyes to see truth
Safe haven
A king within a queen
Blood on our tongues
Weapons in our hearts
To fight for you and us
Stand for something
Don’t fall for the lie
You are our reflection
It’s you and I
Amazing
