50 Word Story Contest Week #20: "Race" (My First Entry) 💜

in #fiftywords7 years ago (edited)

"I’m a dying man"
Said he as he lay there in pain.
Yet there’s no room for me in this place.

Wouldn’t you if you could child,
Try to find me a space?
Her eyes leaked from disgrace...
There was no room for this man here,
Because of his race.

I found out about this challenge through @literature-trail on Discord! The word this week was "race" and instead of talking about accomplishments or great feats, I decided to use my voice to speak out against oppression and racism. We are all the same and I believe in spreading love openly and equally with everyone! Sending out love as always to all those who read this! 💜
