Mourn, Grieve, Exhaustion

BREATHE

Protest, Stand Up, Speak Out

BREATHE

Silenced, Beaten, Killed

We Will Breathe

Weep, Yell, Curse

BREATHE

Over-taxed, Over-looked, Over-worked

JUST BREATHE

Underestimated, Unseen, Unwanted

BREATHE

Challenged, Choke, Confined

TODAY WE BREATHE!!!

Sea breeze clears my mind as the waves washes the tension away. Belize my native land that breathes creativity and uniqueness with every ray of sunshine. Written words my way of standing up and speaking out.
