Black Girl
Oh black girl
Some call you a blackberry
Some say the darker the berry, the sweeter the juice
Some call you chocolate
Skin filled with the dark brown essence of beauty
Some lack the eyes to see your beauty
Some call you a kiwi polish
Undoubtedly you keep on polishing our lives
Some are clouded by the fine texture of ultramel
They forget that you’re caramel
Let the melody of your voice be the creator of good vows
For your beauty makes everyone bow
Oh black girl
Hazel eyes
So dark brown they never go without creating an arc of a smile on our faces
A beauty that is so real and so tantalizing
Some people choose to turn a blind eye on you
But babe you’ve got us running behind your back
Voice so welcoming like a morning chirping bird
You’ve suddenly turned into a bed of roses
A woman full of strength
A woman that brings turnt
A woman that is usually undermined
A woman that is a mine of gold
A woman that never ages easily, no matter how old.
Boldness is your middle name
Whilst others aim to acquire yellowness
Your aim is to remain cocoa-colored
Nut brown
Bronzed
Unbleached
Forever unleashing your extravagant cuteness
A woman that has forever stood strong
A hard worker
A hero
A pure beauty.
