Trying Times

• 

These are trying times

with senseless crimes

and empowered minds

fighting injustice against humankind

These are trying times

of just getting by

and voices seeking to amplify

These are trying times

as the system classifies

and the media try to deceive our eyes

These are trying times

with poverty on the rise

and with time itself facing it’s demise

These are trying times

crippled by a global pandemic

and rescued by screaming Black Lives Matter.

These are trying times my friends

as we all pray for a happily ever after
