Words From Freed Slaves
Poem By: Omarr RaSharjd Lee

We all believe in freedom,
We all believe in love,
We all believe in blessings,
That come from above,
We don’t believe in hatred,
In fact,
We don’t believe in pain, but
Prayer seems to always make bad things change,
We always had hope for a better day,
We always had dreams of leaving our plantation, and
Going far far away, and
Now,
We can say,
Free at last,
No more hurt, and
Pain,
From the past.
