You ask so much of me.
To explain who I am...
It's close to impossible.
There's not just one thing
that says "This is me."
Many things define
The one being I am.
Anger is pointless
Anger can thrill
Anger is useless
Anger can kill
Anger is consuming
Consuming like hate
Consuming your soul
Consuming your fate
Stay calm and breathe
Skipping rocks on a still pond
not knowing the depths or how long
as it breaks the cool surface
it sinks into a rink of uncertain
getting knocked down
wave after wave
Take off your glasses
Before another second passes
Exchange them for rose colored lens
The world proably bends
from negativey to creativy
I bet you gained a different perspective
Born looking “white”
Grew up looking “bright”
Born to be a gift
Grew up on feelings I could not lift
Born to be beautiful
Grew up to be judgmental
