Break the surface

Saturday, September 30th, 2006

Break the surface
gasp for air
Burden on my shoulders
drags me down
Deep down
Dark and cold
Filled with filth
filled with dirt
no light
penetrate this deep
no sound
penetrate this deep
no warmth
touch my soul
creatures lurking
in the dark
Creatures touching
me everywhere
Days go by
months go by
weights add up
suffocate my core
try to breath
need of air
muster my strength
from the core
break the surface
take a breath
see the light
of the world
in that moment
and sink back
to the deep

My skin color matters?

Constant gaze
Piercing stare
You Turn your head
Whisper hate words
Hold me in contempt
Think you are better
You say
My skin is light
Think you are better
In your small mind
Treat me like dirt
Like shit on your shoes
Smile in pretence
When in need
Talk in pretence
When in need
Your heart is cold
Your soul is cold
I give a damn
For your hate
I give a damn
For your fate
I walk away
With my head
Held so high
Like a lotus
Floating in the pond
My heart is light
filled with love
filled with peace
Still there is
A place for you
In my heart
Quit the hate
see the truth
see the light
