DEAR BLACK GIRL,
The next day he tries to remind you
That you'd look more pretty If you lighten your skin.
Leave that boy,
He wasn't ready to love you either ways.
You should have realized,
You didn't need anyone telling you how pretty you were.
You are enough,
A work of art.
God designed you with a mixture of clay, honey and chocolate.
Everything so sweet and dark.
He made a mark on you.
A creature he designed specially,
With skin so unique and pretty.
Body so golden.
But you wanted more.
You craved a skin so light
So you decided creams were the best
To bleach your melanin
Did you know you were hurting ?
And you were only cursing out to God who made your body so unique.
You should have learnt to love yourself.
Every shade is beautiful
You had a purpose.
He didn't create you without reason.
You were only leaving yourself damaged.
Only hurting your own self.
You let the mirror make you feel bad
With the thoughts of your own self.
You felt like you were a demon,
Sent from hell.
Have you forgotten only God makes human?
But you screamed a different question.
Why black ?
Why that ?
You hated your skin.
So you tried to make it fairer,
Thinking it would be clearer.
You only played yourself.
You can't lighten what God didn't give to you.
You forgot God combined a mixture of clay, honey, mahogany and magic to your skin.
Everything so imperfectly perfect.
You forgot you were a creature placed at the highest bid.
All colors were good.
So either black, yellow , brown
We were all beautiful
All shades are unique
God didn't make a mistake
When he created you,
He saw beauty
Something you failed to see
Or realize when you stared at yourself in the mirror.
You are a princess
And your prince is waiting elegantly
For you.
And if he isn't the one for you.
Yours will come.
Don't settle for less,
Don't stress.
Don't wish for any skin
Love what your In
No one can rock you better than you
You are magic.
You are art.
Ever perfect.
Gods imperfect perfection.
You were enough
whoever tricked you into believing you weren't ?
