TOO BLACK By Unknown They take my kindness for weakness They take my silence for speechless. They consider my uniqueness strange They consider my language slang. They see my confidence as conceit They see my mistake as defeat. They consider my success accidental They minimize my intelligence to "potential." My questions mean I`m unaware My advancement is somehow unfair. Any praise is preferential treatment To voice concern is discontentment. If I stand up for myself, I`m too defensive If I don`t trust them, I`m too apprehensive. I`m deviant if I separate I`m fake if I assimilate. My character is constantly under attack Pride for my race makes me "TOO BLACK". You never can get to where you are going without acknowledging where you have been. So before I go, I want to say R.I.P. to all the friends and family members I have lost, You all will truly be missed. None more than my mother.You truly were and still are the wind beneath my wings!!!!!!! I love you mom!
