"Don`t tell me how to pick my friends, I`m good at that,
remember----I picked you"
"You don`t love someone because they`re beautiful. They`re
beautiful because you love them."
And the most important one---
SMILE, the sun shines on beauty!
I AM SPOKEN FOR...LOOKIN 4 FRIENZ

1 of my friends says... "Get 2 know me 4 me" this is so
true.. all 2 often we r immersed in the outer package and we miss
the inner beauty some1 has 2 offer us. Take the time 2 get 2 know
some1 for who they r! Not what they r. Don`t u know that a piece
of coal is really a "DIAMOND" in the ruff?

The Black Prayer (This is deep, so take your time.)
Lord... Why did you make me black?
Why did you make someone the world would hold back?
Black is the color of dirty clothes, of grimy hands and feet...
Black is the color of darkness, of tired beaten streets...
Why did you give me thick lips, a broad nose and kinky hair?
Why did you create someone who receives the hated stare?
Black is the color of the bruised eye when someone gets hurt...
Black is the color of darkness, black is the color of dirt.
Why is my bone structure so thick, my hips and cheeks so high?
Why are my eyes brown, and not the color of the sky?
Why do people think I'm useless? How come I feel so used?
Why do people see my skin and think I should be abused?
Lord, I just don't understand... What is it about my skin?
Why is it some people want to hate me and not know the person
within?
Black is what people are "Labeled" when others want to keep them
away...
Black is the color of shadows cast... Black is the end of the
day.
Lord you know my own people mistreat me, and you know this just
ain't right...
They don't like my hair, they don't like my skin, as they say
I'm
dark or too light!
Lord, don't you think it's time to make a change?
Why don't you redo creation and make everyone the same?
God's Reply:
Why did I make you black?
I made you in the color of coal from which beautiful diamonds are
formed...
I made you in the color of oil, the black gold which keeps people
warm.
Your color is the same as the rich dark soil that grows the food
you need...
Your color is the same as the black stallion and panther, Oh what
majestic creatures indeed!
All colors of the heavenly rainbow can be found throughout every
nation...
When all these colors are blended, you become my greatest
creation!
Your hair is the texture of lamb's wool, such a beautiful creature
is he...
I am the shepherd who watches them, I will
ALWAYS watch over thee!
You are the color of the midnight sky, I put star glitter in your
eyes...
There's a beautiful smile hidden behind your pain...
That's why your cheeks are so high!
You are the color of dark clouds from the hurricanes I create in
September...
I made your lips so full and thick, so when you kiss...they will
remember!
Your stature is strong, your bone structure thick to withstand the
burden of time...
The reflection you see in the mirror, that image that looks back,
that is MINE!!
So get off your knees, look in the mirror and tell me what you
see?
I didn't make you in the image of darkness...
I made you in the image of ME!

keeps her from seeing his face.

eyes on his facial features. Her dream has always been the same.

present and future. His back is always to her and when she does
