How many poems
shall we pen down
to find meaning
in utter cruelty.How many streams
of salty tears must run
on the faces of mothers, brothers,
fathers and daughters
before they heal.How many words
must be said
before we are heard.How many souls
must find peace
before their given time.How many more names
must become hashtags
Before this unjust cycle of violence ends.How many Black Lives
must be unfairly ruined
Before one matters.Sincerely, anyone
tell me!
How many?.—Israel Olorunnisola

Even though it's not trending anymore, Black Lives Matter. Always mattered. Always Should.
