Melanin

Dive in this sea of melanin pain. Where you’re called names based on your body because no matter what you wear, it’s always the same. What’s my name? Do I have a man? Why am i playing games? No sir i’m just trying to move along. I don’t need any friends i know you mean no harm. I’m a loner from birth, people come and leave most of them were jerks, and others with too many tricks up their sleeves. I always ended up getting hurt and now you preach.. to the choir that you’re a good man and treat me like I deserve then how come you disappear whenever you get succured? Right, because a real man leaves and won’t say a word while he watches you bleeds ;Self destruction is among the outskirts. Pull yourself together, you’re a black woman you can endure any weather...see thats what they tell us but i say fuck that im angelic. My life should not be hectic, why do i have to get pregnant? Why do parents treat us like we were hell sent. Born with no innocence but suppose to help them get the benjamins and gain power in leadership and come out short in the end. I think it’s time to take away the pads and pencils and start to rewrite and declare our win.
