Beautiful Black Beauty,
The sun swims in your skin.
Beautiful Black Beauty,
Your smile provokes my grin.
Beautiful Black Beauty,
Oh you, my dearest kin.
Beautiful Black Beauty,
You are not a sin.
Beautiful Black Beauty,
Don't frown, lift up your chin.
Beautiful Black Beauty,
Launch your galaxies from within.
Beautiful Black Beauty
You battalion of melanin.

Beautiful Black Beauty,
Du début à la fin.

Your palms are steady,  strong and soft.
Lay them down my soul's vibrant flows.
Let your hands clap to my vibrations
The braille of my biology spells out signs
In soul language
Steady, strong, soft.
Silently sound out that language -
Hold on to the memory of our vibrations

Unexplained, unintended but unbelievably indispensable;

Hold onto those vibrations;
They weren't made for language.
Steady, strong, soft -
That is the algorithm of our love.
Steady, strong, soft.

We are not the stars
We are not the future
We are not the past
We are not suture
We are not a problem.
We are not a solution.

We are not the beach
We are not the sea
We are not in reach
We are not a we
In this dim humanity -

You are just a you.
And I am just a me.

— The End —
