Black & White Poem by Amal Alawar

#‎BlackLivesMatter‬ ‪#‎BlueLivesMatter‬ ‪#‎AllLivesMatter‬

Why do words change when we grow?
Color was for fun and art to show 🎨
Today the word is heavy, it's not as bright
It's not the Rainbow 🌈 it's Black 🏴 and White 🏳
Today the word Color is all over the news
Breaking our hearts 💔 leaving a bruise
Black or White 🏁... it doesn't matter! ! !
We're all humans from the same platter
All these deaths igniting a fuse 🔥
No one will win, we all will lose 😕
Open your eyes... HURRY WAKE UP
Stop the madness, break the death cup...
