Verdict: Not Guilty but Do Me This Favor!

"We the jurors find George Zimmerman not guilty of all charges," they read
Nawww, you ain't hearing thangs, that's just what they said.
I know that there are shocked faces and some jaws laying on the floor
"No Justice. No Peace." is what you chant at the courthouse doors.

But do me this favor...

My mother and father, brother and family have been through enough
Though we may not like the outcome...in God we have to trust.
The God I know makes no mistakes,  my purpose on earth was complete
I just thank you all for standing by the side of my family in their time of need. 

Mama thank you for being so strong for me
Thank you for all that you do
Know that with every moment you're not seeing my face
I'm still right there standing next to you.

Dad I know this was a heart breaking moment
But know that I have a smile on my face
The fact that I'm gone and never coming home
Means I'm with God in this most beautiful place.

Bro you're the best...dude and I miss you
Wish I could wrap my arms around you, hug & kiss you
Man keep the faith and know that I'm here
Still lil' bro...so no need for the tears.

I just ask that all of you know that we made progress
Though the outcome was hard for you all to digest
We must all keep the peace and let it be
I'm home now...God set me free.

Love,
Trayvon

I'm sitting here watching HLN and waiting for the verdict in the George Zimmerman Trial. I can't help but to wonder how Sybrina Fulton & Tracy Martin are feeling. So I write:

Sybrina & Tracy,

No...I cannot say I understand because I do not know your pain
I cannot imagine me losing my son the exact same way
To sit and wait on the outcome of a verdict that will never replace Trayvon
I'm just asking God to be with you as the jurors come back into the courtroom one by one.

Know that you have a trial angel that's flying high
Know that Trayvon is wiping the tears as you cry
Know that Trayvon will be with you no matter where you go
Know that Travyvon has made it safely home.

I am so sorry for your loss.

Your Trial Angel Trayvon

As I sat here on July 5, 2015 watching Sybrina Fulton (mother) and Jahvaris Fulton (brother) testify in the George Zimmerman trial (on behalf of their son & brother) I wrote:

Hey mama, I see you on the stand
Just wanna say I'm right here holding your hand
Just relax and the let the truth be told
The emotions you feel, just let them be known
Mama, I'm with you through every aching minute
I've asked God to speak to you and He said, "I've already did it."
I asked that He give you the strength to make it through
I asked that He do the fatherly things He do.
I love you an...d will always love you...know that
Just wanted to say, I'm here with you...so just relax.

Love,
Trayvon

and...

Hey bro, I see ya' sitting up there on the stand
As I did with mama, I'm sitting here holding your hand
Man you're looking good and you're doing good too
I wish I was there...man, bro I love..I love the hell outta you.
I'm sorry that I had to leave ya' so soon
If I could turn back the hands of time, I would be right there with you
If I could wipe the tears from your eyes and the pain out your heart, I would
I know my death hasn't been easy for you but it's all good.
God has called me home and that's where I reside
Know that I'm always with you living up above the sky.

Love,
Trayvon
