Truce

Truce, written by Poet Angela Khristin Brown If I were to tell you what someone told me, I might miss a detail or two. I hold inside broken dreams, broken lies, broken promises I step aside. Black and white Im rage, love and hate like two birds in a bush. With all the rage and madness What am I left to do. Thoughts of suicide, race through my mind from time to time I racing time. Black and white I heard the rumors A thousand times I ain't goin no where, I break down in cry. My tears flowing into the river of life. Black on white building blocks of promise we live in fear danger is near. Black and white I'm afaid of the dark I can not trust I do not know this course of history. Black and white have become the colors no one understands. we are in troubled waters pointing at words of blame at one another waiting in the waters of pain you hating me I am not like you I hating you You don't know me well enough to spread those rumors. Black and white in all hatread love and war the rumors spread got our feelings hurt, by the words being shared in truth and dare, we are both confused and unaware, we failed to forgive we dared to learn to channel our hate in goodnes and health we build these walls we made these walls we bcome these walls we tear down these walls we rise, we fall life is not a game we love, we hate one in the same I must define my purpose with the words needed to say letting go
