My skin does not define me
What defines me…
Is what is in my heart
My race is not the problem,
My religion is not the problem,
My gender is not the problem,
People are the problem
We live in a society
Where people don’t understand
We were all born to be different
But to love each other
People are like flowers…
They are all different
But they are all beautiful
No matter the complexion of your pigment
The world fears equality
We were all born to love each other
No matter the cause
