Brown Skin
As brown as mud
Rich Mahogany...
Look at me with blind eyes;
Try looking beyond this outer guise.
There is a person inside me,
Just like the one in you.
Some people call this skin black
But it’s brown, deep chocolate brown
Maybe with a hint of caramel
This brown skin
My brown skin is not as radiant as the sun.
Is it dull and lacks luster,
but I love it.
Sorry.
But I love it.
You can never put me down because of
My brown skin
It’s Mine. Not Yours.
I'm in this skin.
Disgrace...Me...look in my eyes.
I will never concede
My brown pride.
Embraced.
Sun..the earth..Orange..Luna..sea.
Blessed people, identify me.
