How it tears the soul to pieces.

All black,like batman,
Weeping through the night sky.
Mourning,

We could fix this and turn it into morning.
Blue,Pink White is morning. 
Everyone dont have to try 
But their mourning 
The ones who do 
It's morning time. 

Morning 
I'm not at a funeral, 
It's the wonderful blue skies ,
Clear lake,
The full green trees,
Morning . 




-Jeremiah Myers

My breathing slow’s as I see it’s a new day
I mourn today and I mourn tomorrow
There is no change in our society
There is no justice in our society

One day I will wake up with no mourning 
I will wake up to a world where my skin does not over speak me
Where we could all come together and see each other as one
Morning where there is no mourning
A life where there is no fear, for the fellow people that wake and talk like you
We will overcome this tragedy

My response was that everything is going to be okay even with covid . I'm waking up to news that is happening in the world on the t.v. The miracle in my morning is that I get to see another day .

I'd rather have loyalty than love cause love really don't mean jack
See love is just a feeling 
You can love somebody and still stab them in the back 
It don't take much to love you can love somebody just by being attached
See loyalty is a action
You can hate me and still have my back
Back to back Back to back 
I couldn't bare the shame of seeing you not having my back 
You make me feel like i have no more love to give
Heart cold had to buy a sweater

They were always in my life but it starts to get to you more when you're older and actually understand what's going on.i feel like i lost a piece of myself every time somebody leaves because they were a big part of you and the whole family.
