My Biracial Son

Dear my biracial son, 

I love you, 

Your father does too. 

There will be many things I can’t protect you from, 

Society being #1 

I will protect you as best I can 

and raise you up to be a man

You are black and you are white 

The things they say to you will not be right 

You will be tough 

And you will be strong 

You will succeed 

You will overcome 

As a mixed race you will never be fully accepted, and for that I apologize 

BUT continue to look forward passed rejection. 

You are MIXED but, you are not mixed up!
