Love is colorblind


You tell me you love me and say love is blind give me your heart and i'll give you mine, but the thing that truly makes me tick are the stares that we get because were force to grow up in a society that will never fully forget. I am black and you are white and your parents see this and pick a fight you come reassure me there's no difference between you and I. Society needs to learn that love is colorblind for thats what you taught me.
