This is me
Half Black
Half White
In a society that doesn't take that into account
A society that sees me and assumes
I am fully Black
Which is not bad
but in a society that doesn't care for those who are darker
It makes me wish I was a little bit lighter
This is me
Loving boys
Loving girls
In a household that doesn't want to believe it
A household that shapes and molds me
To be what they want
Which is not bad
But in a household that doesn't accept the real me
It makes me wonder if they truly love me
This is me
Many mistakes
Many grudges
In a body that won't let me move on
A body that can't let go of the past
This is me
Which is not bad
But in a country where freedom is supposed to be granted
It makes me become hateful
To those who won't let me be me
But the biggest person in the way of that is
me...
This is me
A cowardess girl
A girl who can't speak her mind
In a corner of shame
Letting fear of judgement consume her whole
Which is bad
But constantly being looked down upon
because of her skin
or her sexuality
or her past
Is making her confidence disppear
The confidence for her to stand up for herself and yell
THIS IS ME!
