Love Me
Why not love me for who I am?
You could start by not stereotyping me.
Never keeping account of
my mind, my body, or my soul.
It’s wrong
wrong because all you do is play games.
Playing cards.
You play the race “card”, but it’s not the same “card”, and
the “I’m a authority figure ‘card”.
Scared to have kids because of you
because you continue to whip us
You literally whipped my ancestors
those whips left scars so deep
that it pierces through the current generation’s souls.
I want to be you
to be in your shoes
to see how it is to be privileged
be you because I want to live that sweet life.
Only because you made my life hell.
So why not love me for who I am?
and not the person you made me to be.
My mind,
my body,
And my soul.
