Tell My Breath From the Wind

I went for a long walk in the rain
I walked until I couldn’t tell my sweat from the rain, the rain from my tears, my tears from blood
Until I couldn’t tell my breath from the wind, my mask from silence, my feet from the marching thousands
Until I couldn’t separate my soul from the injustice, my soul from the search for justice
I walked to turn my soul into a prayer for justice
My soul into a demand for justice
We all marched to turn our souls into a demand for justice
We are the demand for justice
We demand justice.
