What happened to protect and serve? Did that not include me and the likes?!

My name is Atatiana Jefferson you took my life, at my home, with my nephew, in my community, Why was I Killed

Xavier Graduate, bachelor in biology, worked in pharmaceutical sales, productive citizen, Why was I Killed

Planned to go to medical school, support my family, the next role model, Why was I Killed

Did all the right thing, living my life, as God intended, Why was I Killed

At home, my community, minding my own business, wee hours of the morning, no violence happening, Why was I Killed

Not a threat to anyone inside or outside, playing a game with my nephew, you never knocked, Why was I Killed

The door was opened, why didn’t you knock, call out, but you shot me unprovoked, Why was I Killed

You open fire through my window, you may have heard movement, that’s what humans do, Why was I Killed
