because
of love
Choked
because
of color
Left tied
to a fence
A symbol
of separation
Crushed
to the ground
on which
we all walk
Would they
have accepted the crimes
against them
if they had known
the destinies
of their deaths
Their ends
so much pain
so little air
their horrors
pulled us
together
All loves
All colors
embracing
We become
the halos
they never
wanted
