We Honor You

I’m speechless today

I have no words to say

I feel so blue

just thinking about you

I’m voiceless today

I don’t know what to say

Everything is strange

I don’t know about you

I’m drowning today

I’m overwhelmed

Still blue

I’m thinking about your struggles 

All you went and are still going through

So, on this … Black History Month

I honor some of the women 

and You…
