I know you
from another land
head in hands crying you were
for the past had placed it's weight on
your shoulders and I told you
"just be free" and you began to
give birth to wings and caught a wind
of seafoam green and....
......took flight.....................
You were majestic........
yet your tears continued to fall
raining on the world
and the soils bled
cause time had to heal the wounded spirit
and God placed you on his clock so you
did it in his time
to learn his lesson
transferred fiber optically
and dancing on my retinas
and resting in my mind I saw
you donned in another vibe
God gold tipped your wings
and your pen tips told me
"Aminata's gon' be all right"
and I smiled
as you flew
on God's breath
as the tears evaporated
with time.
