Silent Voices
They see but do not hear
Voices raised only to be silenced
“They do it for fame or attention, they do it just because-”
“There’s no such thing as racism in this world anymore.”
These voices are raised only to be silenced
They shout, they scream, they all tell a history
Of struggled of pain, of the injustice of equality
Yet met with the indifference and denied validity
This injustice festers, seeping into every pore
While blind eyes claim they’ve seen this all before
The echoes of anguish reverberate loud,
From past generations, a sorrowful shroud.
Their stories buried, their truths brushed aside,
Their battles for justice and equality,are all equally denied
But the flames they ignited refuses to let out
It blazes anew, refusing to be contained.
Each voice that’s been silenced finds strength in the crowd
All allies stand tall, their conviction unbowed.
For Black lives matter, a resounding decree,
An anthem for justice, for all to see
It’s not just a movement, it’s and ongoing fight,
To dismantle an unfair system that hinders what’s right
So hear and truly listen, lt empathy regin
For change starts with acknowledging the pain
Together we march, together we stand
Towards a future where everything is fair.
