It's Time To Say...



It's sad to think that is still live in a time,

where I could be killed for looking the way I do.

It's hard to imagine that all those greats before me,

protested and died for this ''better" place, only to see from their heavenly seats,

nothing changed.

It's painful for me to die one day and leave this place to my children,

only to know they and their children will suffer here.

It's only right for me to say, no more.
