You have born silently, privately
As an unknown
You have gone loudly , publicly
As a very well known
You have shown something Bad
Happening around the world
You have borne the greatest pain
Which was unbearable with lot of strain
You have asked for nothing
but want to breathe
They have done nothing
Except grabbing you by keeping underneath
This is not the first neither the last
That is due to ignorance of science, it goes fast
Where melanin does not dilute equally
There they forget how to behave peacefully
Either colour, race, gender or poverty
Further many odd factors add to make a fake novelty
Being a slave of own may not be able to understand the reality
Seeing inside with the wisdom of eye if ,
Knowing same blood and bones may not fight for inequality
Whatever happens, things may not change in future
Whoever comes to power may not
Demolish this averse nature
Comparison brings unwanted issues
Not only the white even Black life matters
So, George, Good bye not only to you
Racism, apartheid, poor thinking, ill treating, comparing with arrogance too
May this world be filled with humans with more humanity, love and peace
May your soul, be prayed by the whole world to Rest In Peace.
