Colour of Souls

What’s the colour of souls
Does it match
The colour of our skin
Does that equate to racism
In the heavens above
What’s the colour of our souls
Does it match
The colour of our hearts
And pulse
Red with passion
Or is it
Black and dead
Like the body it departs
What’s the colour of my soul
Does it really matter
When life ends
And 
I cannot breathe
