I Only Need One Day

by ayanna   Aug 12, 2008


I wish I could have my cousin back for one day.
Take him from behind those bars to release his pain.
Let him breathe the air that I inhale.
Let him view the trees that I see.
God please give me my cousin back just for one day.

Locked up just because of what a F boi had to say.
No freedom; no justice.
Our precious time flies by with a three day weekly visit.
Ear to ear face to face but with a stain glass window blocking our space.
The hardest thing I have to face is watching him walk away.
God please give me just one day.
