The struggles of a mixed person
âYour not BLACK enough youâre to light. To be BLACK.â âYou arenât HISPANIC. You donât speak Spanish.â âYou arenât WHITE because youâre to dark.â âImmigrant.â âSlave.â âCracker.â âGo cut my grass.â âGo pick some cotton.â âYou are lucky your white.â âNo cops are gonna come after you.â âGo back to where you came from.â Even though I am also Native American so this is where part of me came from. âCan you understand what Iâm saying.â âOf course you have an A in Spanish look at you.â âYou donât understand what we go through.â My problems pile up more than theirâs because I get a comment everywhere I go because. I AM MIXED. But you have to be proud of what you are and where you came from. Donât let them fuck up your point of view on your cultures.
Like a Rose
I am like a rose I am wonderful to look at but harsh to touch I tried to warn them They didnât listen Why didnât they listen? I told them not to get close To stop before they got hurt But they did it anyway They got close They touched me Why did they touch me? Everything was going fine I am like a rose if you touch me it will hurt They always complain about the pain I warned them So I am going to warn you donât touch me Stay an arms length away I am like a rose
Are you a rose?
Just the thought of getting lost in a book makes me happy
Evil things disguise themselves as something so desirable
