by ReNay and Ravin
Grief carried
born in misunderstanding
As grieving was not taught to me
So my grief carried cries of anger
cries swallowed by silence
The silence increasing the burden
Yet it is justified
My mind weighs heavy
Conscious that my sorrow
creates discomfort
My people’s humanity
Sacrificed at the altar of contentment
Suffering at the hand of silence
And yet the silence is still justified
