The Last Poets

When you go home
tell them for us-that,
today,
we write our best.

we write for love
write,
in the name of
Freedom.
Tell them-please
that,
we write for
peace,
justice
we write for them.

Tell them
that-
for their tomorrow
we write our souls out
Today.

It sounds so sincere and deep. Expression is very inspiring because not everyone can express thoughts in words! Beautiful x!

I love the ending bit...

"Tell them that-
for their tomorrow
we write our souls out
Today."

So true...
and I also say that:

"we write to leave our mark, but more so a legacy for generations to come, explanations to the deepest that caresses their souls"...

I so love the way you write :-)
