I too am human.
And exist with human needs.
At one time I believed,
Those needs I had...
Were in the pleasing of others.
And that was okay,
Those days are long gone.
But those days long gone away,
Today I will not address.
I can not breathe, I said
while the police was
choking the life Out
of me.
The giving, the taking with its heartbreaking,
Has been done with the best of my time invested.
I too am human.
And it has taken me a while to digest it.
Mentally destroying Black people.
But here I am.
I can't breathe, I cannot breathe.
You hear me? ! I said, I can not
Breathe!
I Am! human too. Isn't
that Enough.
To you I'm worst
Than an animal locked up in
A cage, that has no purpose
No voice, no life, no
Freedom. If you can hear
My cry.
Don't …
Push...
mute!
