Dear Society...

Dear Society, why hate on me? No matter how I wear my hair still so hard to please. Dear Society, why can't I be great? Shall I lighten my skin & lose some weight? Dear Society, do you think I'll be successful? Although poverty runs all through my blood vessels. Dear Society, will I ever get a choice? Because I'm black & a woman I feel I have no voice. Dear Society, why is it knowledge you assume I lack? I can still be educated as well as being black. Dear Society, why must I be viewed as angry & possessive? All I want to do is share my opinions in a message. Dear Society, why wouldn't I love me? I'm beautiful & as black as can be.
