Greater Than

I am not defined By the color of my skin I am a universe within Expanding I am more than eyes will ever see Oh what wonders abide Beyond the horizon

Thank you so much. It is sort of a response to something that I've heard throughout my life, that I'm 'acting outside my race'. People are so much more than the amount of melanin they were born with and the cultural boundaries they were raised within. Explore, find beauty, be happy. ??
