The Darkness Of The Skin And The Darkness Of The Mind Poem by NikMorgan The 2nd

The Darkness Of The Skin And The Darkness Of The Mind

Rating: 2.7


I am what I am
I see no need to apologise
What is it ‘bout me
That makes you so despise
I’ll be who I’ll be
Regardless to how you generalize
The madness of mankind
That is what you epitomize
I hope the world can see
Your philosophises are built on lies

I hate you cause you’re not perfect
Meaning not at all like me
I hate you cause you’re poor
And I’m as materialistic as can be
I hate you cause your different
Intolerance is my decree
This is my country
And you are a refugee
But mostly I just hate you
It stops me hating me
