Racism has been here for many years,
But still hasn’t changed much,
The damage it has created,
To the cause of controversy it has led to,
Through every open door,
Shattered by the disappointment of the color of racism,
Seeing that Black and White has no boundaries,
Racism to me holds ignorance and naïve people.

Will racism ever change for the greater good?
It began with slavery to segregation,
To colors being freed,
Yet still having racism being done in hushed tones,
Although colors and whites were allowed in the same place,
There were still glares,
To be so naïve and ignorant closes a lot of doors for new opportunities.
