Black is phonemal

December 10, 2015

Black is phenomenal

To the color of my skin,

The texture of my hair,

The eyes, I use to stare

Black is phenomenal

I am not light,

But dark

I am not pretty,

But beautiful

Black is phenomenal

Black is creative,

Black is Black

And if I had the chance

I would never turn my back,

To the ones who say black is ugly,

That to be beautiful, you have to be light

I shall face them full heartedly with a smile on my face,

and grace through my waist as I walk to the close-minded people

And say

Black is phenomenal

You cannot break me down, so that I may think black is whack

Because in my heart I know black is will never be that

Black is phenomenal

They break us down so that we may hate ourselves and our color

But little do they know, we aren't so different from eachother

Black is powerful and so am I

Our sole country was built upon the blacks

And thus the world, Without darkness there wouldn't be no light

Without darkness you wouldn't be able to see the future so bright
