http://penastory.com/2016/02/04/melanin/ When you look at the sun You see how it shines on you And everything you do And yes, they are all Black I came yesterday I wrote this piece for you And all the things you did And it was called Black So then I took my turn I know I shouldn’t have done that Still it was Black Your skin, Actually, your bones and skin Turned into something beautiful Do you know? I love you so Black, I ran my life I fought the beast for you Oh! what a thing to do ‘Cause you were all Black I made a dress I made a dress for you Fine linen and colorful cotton And it was all Black Your skin turn into- Something beautiful That’s why I’d bleed myself for it It’s true It always shone on you, they never lied It was always Black Find more interesting stuffs on www.penastory.com 1 Like
