What I Have


I do not have pale white skin with pink cheeks,

I have a mocha colored face and even darker brown eyes.

I do not have a sky blue corvette with black leather seats,

I have a dull blue altima whos paint fades with all their lies.

I do not have a nice big city with warm, bright, inviting lights,

I have a town filled with booze and lots of drug abuse.
