Strange girl, in a strange world.
Couldnt control herself.
Her emotions ran wild.
She cried herself to sleep that girl.
Feeling misunderstood.
Then he came along.
She was happy.
Something she hadn't been in awhile.
She clapped at sunsets.
Everynight, she dreamed of something big.
Bigger than herself.
"Love" she would say.
She knew it would come one day.
Then it came.
Hit her like a rock
On the side of her skull.
They talked about there futures
Together
How they wanted children
One black one white.
Then one night it happened.
The tears came back.
He broke her heart
Over her black skin
And she'll never forget that.
It took her hours to stop crying.
But it never stopped.
Maybe on the outside
But never on the inside.
She was confused.
"Why does skin matter?" she'd ask
Time and time again.
She'd see he was with someone else
And the tears came back
More fierce than ever
She kept a knife next to her bed
Always hoping she'd get up the nerve
To pull it off
She's better now.
Thats what she says.
She dances to music
And sings outloud
Better than ever.
But the scars will never leave her.
