He Had a Dream

He had a Dream
Yet it's still my Nightmare...
The stares slicing
The blank faces stabbing
The uncomfortable glances
He had a Dream
Yet it's still my Nightmare...
The oppression surviving
The hurt unwavering
The want of just mere chances
He had a Dream
Yet it's still my Nightmare...
The bullets piercing
The graves revealing
The gone too soons
He had a Dream
Yet it's still my Nightmare...
The divisive names
The apoplectic diction
The pseudo banters on the news
He had a Dream
Yet it's still my Nightmare
