I am labelled,
As an opposite colour.
Black,
The skin that makes hearts race.
I am labelled,
As a weakling,
A girl,
The leftover parts from the proud human beings.
I am labelled,
As something insignificant,
A child,
Growing still needs to be done, or are they strong since the day they are born?
I am labelled,
As a foul, different creature.
As a gay person,
Well, I am.
But look deep inside all this different people and then you will learn to treasure everything and everyone...
