Blinking
Never noticed that my skin was such a funny pink
All I see is pink, that is until I blink
Then I begin to see black
Though it may not be black, its not a proven fact
I love to stare into the darkness
Everyone close to me knows thats where my heart is
As I blink I see them both
Such a beauty they both behold
Alone they are so plain
but when they are together I cant contain
the joy i have inside
When i close my dark brown eyes
The two colors were ment to be
The only two colors i can see
While society doesnt think the same
out of this many beautiful people came
Never knew color ment so much
I mean they feel the same to the touch
Color doesnt matter to me
and a role model is what im trying to be
for all the kids who see a different color when they blink
telling them selves they're wrong to even think
No matter what color you love
We will all end up together blinking above.
