Finally Free
Depths of water consume me,
Finally I am free.
Here and there I hear my name,
But to us slaves were all the same.
Better to die today than live for tomorrow.
Within clock-works home, no time to borrow.
My time has come finally at last,
Death wont judge us for our past.
Iam welcomed into a warm embrace,
God has brought us to this wonderful place.
I was a slave, now I’m free.
The depths of the ocean engulf me.
I wrote this for black history month last year.
