black people verse

Africans
Black people
I love you
I love y’all
Melaninated people
Whoever y’all are
All around the world
Y’all are the greatest people
On earth
And some of you don’t see
How great
How original you can be….
Black people
Are the first humans who breathes air….
The world knows it
But do you?
Do y’all?
Black race doesn’t know
How magical we are
Til we found out later
Like years down the road
When maybe it’s too late…
Or not…..
It’s why everybody wants to copy
Us we’re the mothers and fathers
Of the humanity….we don’t know
This fact very much cos we’re all in every
European business
In other races’ business
While we roll our eyes at each other
In a disrespectful way
Cos racism, yes this damn racism
Taught us that we should hate each other…
Meanin that we’re not allowed to
Unite….racism programmed us….
You know what else that programmed us
Her sister cousin colorism
Ain’t that some shit, huh?
Got a lot of nerve to go
On a diaspora war
Between each other
When we’re still in the battlefield
With white supremacy….
I can’t save my people
I know i can touch souls of my people
Who wants to learn
And read my poems
Sayin
That’s the lady who speaks the truth
From her left handed pen
From her iPad screen keyboard
Of her heart
Cos
She loves black people
And she doesn’t mind writin
Poetry for them….
And yes it’s goin to be problematic
Somebody will say somethin
Like don’t post or something
I didn’t listen….
I still write….
I’m another voice for black people
Who are scared to say….
Maybe one day
I will pass away
And have my poems go viral…
So then I could be famous in that way
Though I won’t see the results
The aftermath…
All I’m doin is inkin the truth on paper
For black people…
Like I said before I can’t save them all
I can’t change their minds
At least I do somethin
For the ones who love to read
And enjoy poetry
And understand white supremacy….
I love black people, my people….
