#Never Broken



Pray for this broken family
to heal and find forgiveness,
the whole world feels your pain-
we ask God to be our witness,
they've taken a man's life
and haven't showed remorse,
they will never break our spirit
with unnecessary use of force,
still you want us to be fair-
you want us to show reserve,
then give justice to this family
who you didn't protect & serve,
Pray for this broken family
to find strength to carry on,
Tyre will never be forgotten
I'm truly sorry that he's gone.
                             
                              Dedicated to Tyre Nichols.
                                     By. Michael A Watkins.
