Honey + Melanin

She is raw like cacao Carries a smell of cinnamon and honey Natural brown eumelanin skin Everyone judges not knowing what's within Sweet like honey, She cures any emptiness carried in a man Mix her with sunshine And she glows within Beautiful big brown eyes No one ever takes the time to notice her People only falsely label her and lack realization That she's the most beautiful and radiant brown skinned girl Sweet like honey Beautiful brown girl Never lose your fire Even when the sun may not shine, you'll still always blind them - Henessy J. Beltre
