My words are asphyxiating
I cant understand
the weight upon me.
I didn't deserve this,
you kneel on
me like a ill treated dog..
Do I bark, no..
I plead for your humanity,
but you just stare with emotionless eyes..
Who cares if I cant breathe, me..
my family, a daughter ill never see,
but you just ignore...
Its not fair that I'll never hold her again,
close to my slowing breath...
Could anyone help me, they just sleep..
until I cant breath...
Who cares if I cant breathe...
the flickering of racism shown
to burn brighter than my last breath..
I matter, I lived, i died. but know that i couldn't breathe...
and it matters, Mum.....
