Black Soul

Drink it away.
Forget it.
Push it down.
Hold it back.
Don’t let it show.
Whatever you do,
Don’t let your black soul shine too bright.
They don’t understand.
They don’t get it.
So hold back.
Fake your smile,
Paint it on.
Red lips,
Powdered skin,
Colored hair,
Bolemic figures.
I wish I were you.
It’s easy for you.
To live.
I can’t breathe,
I drown in your good fortune.
Thrashing in the waters of your success.
Tsunami’s drinks my strength,
You swallow my pride,
Chewing on my self-esteem,
Just to taste the bitterness.
Beating my confidence,
‘Till it bleeds,
Hemerages on the floor.
A step to fortune for you.
Oh well,
I never had a chance.
I never would have been anything anyway.
Or maybe………………
