Our Black Is Beautiful

Our black is Yahuahs definition of beauty..
Not a beauty we must become but the righteous beauty 
of our creation.
It's strength not from the clouds but it comes from the 
powerful image of our creator.
The brightness of the sun cannot match or outshine the 
gift our births have given us.
Standards of beauty..wrongly set by ones who
consider themselves to be the standard.
Understand, we are not constructed from bits and 
pieces of any other. 
Remove their labeled lies that everything black and dark 
is a weak taboo.
When indeed we are the epitome of strength and power.
It is the female melanin that is their very existence.
The more we realize who we are..why we were created 
then we will realize our black is..will always be..has 
always been beautiful.
~Shalom~
