I am Mexican.
I am latin.
Or as YOU say ;
I am "illegal"
Black hair, brown skin,
A "wetback, go back to your country brown"
Spanish speaking mess.
Angered to a point I couldn't explain.
Tongue tied, bruised lungs.
Causing me to sit down and tumble these thoughts in my head.
Persuading myself I didn't belong.

Crazy how much racism there is around still. I was out with my mom and this woman completely discriminated us.
