Amen! My son , too, was taken on July 14, 2001 with a bullet in the back from a Boston, MA police officer. To this day I have not received the clothes he wore, or the autopsy photograph which the police department has and still kept. The police claimed self defense when the medical records show the entry wound over the right buttocks.
@@trulyjordd it’s the truth ….. the truth is hard to accept! These kids murdered are kids that murder and in gangs they are horrible kids with negligent parents that are unfit to properly raise them to not kill.
Wow... You know, I always thought that my poems had to rhyme to sound good. I'm realizing now, that they don't. I love that in poetry you can speak from your heart and whether it rhymes or not, it's still a poem. I appreciate her for putting this out into the universe.
Powerful poem I understand it but you have to know Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice so we all didn’t end up in hell. His destroyed us off once and before doing it again completely he gave his son. Jesus prayed to see if he could save us without going through that and god didn’t move not one time while he was being murdered to give us a chance at eternal life that’s true love. The devil reigns over this earth until Jesus comes back so it’s filled with evil and only gonna get worse
The whole poem was magic. but the last line had shook.
He's not the only one with a murdered son.... Just... Wow

My dad was murdered in his early 20's. I was a baby, only 1 year old. I really wanna give my Nana a hug now.
My father died when I was one too. He died at 19. He was protecting my grandmother when they both got shot.
wow. I have no others words. except maybe that as always Dominique's poems are as powerful and as raw as ever.
I like Dominique's poems pull on your heart strings and tap dance on your soul. She goes deep. I love it.
that ending tho DAMN! left it raw not to be ignored.
Who's cutting up onions in here?

I had that same feeling until I heard this poem. Honestly it was so good I didn’t realize until you pointed it out that it didn’t rhyme. 🤯
Yes! It's called prose poetry. And it can be even more beautifull than poetry with rhymes
she is the epitome of feminine
beautiful
strong
passionate
loving
pained
and refusal to stay down
Her voice is so soothing
Update it has been 7 months and I've probably listened to this 200 times and it still gives me goosebumps
