Breonna.

Breonna.

Shot without a case, a human disgrace.

How can you say this wasn’t about race?

Her body cannot be replaced.

Breonna.

A mother’s screams fall on deaf ears, as the sirens turn into nightmares.

Crucified because her skin wasn’t fair or because you didn’t see white in the middle of the night?

Breonna.

Damn. The story doesn’t change she was asleep in her bed before ya’ll shot her dead.

A vibrant young black woman trying to make a difference in this world.

She probably gave CPR to several white girls.

An awarded EMT who gave life to others but that doesn’t matter when all you see is color.

Breonna.

My heart breaks daily for your mother and for those who loved you like no other.

Your dreams were taken, and I don’t want to know why.

I want to see those who fired bullets into your flesh behind bars for the rest of their lives.

I want your memory to stay alive and I want your spirit to thrive.

Breonna.
