The Loving Kind

We love we cry we laugh 
we are the loving tree 
we grow and we know 
I'm brown he's creamy 
we are broken but we are 
one our love tormented 
since 1958 in VA.
our love hated taunted
buying groceries we are
the loving kind silky brown
blending over vanilla here
in America what is right 
what is civil what is kind
we are different my heart
dance with my mind here
today the very same pain 
racism exceptional loving
what we bring to each other
is love we are the loving kind
