Black

MY COLOR IS BLACK

I THINK I’M DESPONDENT

JUST GET OVER IT, THEY SAY

I WISH I COULD FIND THE WAY

ONLY ONE PERSON BARELY RECOGNIZES ME,

ONE THING IS, I KNOW THAT’S ME

I THINK I’M A PROBLEMATIC CHILD

DRAWING A CRAZY PICTURE

WRITING A CRAPPY POEM,

BUT SOMETHING SILLY IN THE WORLD

THAT MY PARENTS GET ANGRY FOR

I THINK MY LIFE IS BLACK

BLACK ARE THESE DAYS

AND THE ONES LYING BEHIND

PRODUCE A FAKE SMILE

NOT WORTH THE FIGHT,

I THINK I’M BLACK

MY THOUGHTS ARE BLACK

MY BEHAVIOR IS BLACK

MOST OF MY LIFE IS BLACK
Student here MY FUTURE IS EQUALLY DARK
