When the world started to fear me,
And I it.
When the color of my skin
Came before any of my intentions.
When I realized I no longer had control over what happened to my body.
And I became just that-
Dear Optimism,
To be honest I recall receiving you not too long ago, just last year
You came from motivational speeches made by Tony Robinson
I am sorry.
i am sorry for shredding you to pieces when you deserved to be cherished.
i'm sorry for the six years of abuse i put you through and thought that you deserved.
Sitting alone on the grass late one night
Admiring the starry sky shining so bright
I could not help but be in awe of my God
Who created the heavens and man out of sod
