Being Black Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION
by Adeyemi Adisa, United Kingdom May 17, 2004
Environment   Poetry

  

Being black means being proud
To stand and say what you feel out loud
When people's words strip your dignity
Have no fear
You have your own mind
Words can be so full of hate
We know now there is no time to wait

At times
I feel so alone
But just where can I call my home?
People fight for pride alone
But one question stands
Where does it end?

When love wins through?
Hope that is not a dream!
Others like me will want to stand proud and free

When I examine myself, I see writing as the only way to express my thoughts and have been wasting no time, however little, in ensuring that I express myself. This is an inspirational thought, potentially instilled in each and everyone of us, but the ways we express ourselves is the difference. I hope to meaningfully make use of most of my time and positively share my thoughts with others. You can check out my site (www.yemmmmy.co.nr) for more of my articles and poems.
