Karawe
Kinky they say,
Too curly to be cared about.
But the coil is my culture;
Constantly defined unattractive,
Under-appreciated efforts,
Tragically tainted tries.
A constant pain within my eyes,
And many unheard desperate cries.
As my securities die,
And my curls fry,
I look up to the sky.
As I cry and wonder why,
Why does society have to lie?
