Slit my wrists, I bleed red just like you But you only see My dark skin My skin life, these pores are my breath, My skin comfort, No one will hold me as tight as my skin, My skin home, I refuse to change it, My skin me, Let me love me

My skin
Slit my wrists, I bleed red just like you But you only see My dark skin My skin life, these pores are my breath, My skin comfort, No one will hold me as tight as my skin, My skin home, I refuse to change it, My skin me, Let me love me
Someone told me I should try bleach my skin to look prettier,i was astonished!!I never had a problem with my black skin.So i wrote this
