Melanin- Dripping with Honey

in #poetry8 years ago (edited)

Skin dropping down in thick fresh honey
Folding down tons of stars
A galaxy of strength molded in firm faith
I am an anatomy to be glorified
A glaring star of the sun

My skin invades symphonies and melody of hot notes, played by the ebony skin of my ancestors
My skin carriers thousands of battle filed in shout of triumphs
These scares tell the tales of my heritage
These marks are stretch that lead to the ocean of my faith

I am dark like the inky clouds
I am beautiful drowning in firm inky stale
My curves are round, firm and unapologetic
My hair screams in glorious strands to the goodness of the moon and she will not be tamed
She would stand tall and firm as a blooming flower
Singing hallelujah with the strongest note
I am fierce and original

Rooted in the dark soils of a firm blood line
I drip stars with each grin and wink
Infused with the dark cracked moon
I carry oceans of chaos mixed with vibrant spirit in my eyes lids
I carry golden mixture and streaks of the sun down the thighs of my body
And I am sorry that I cannot be measured by the slumps of reality
I am a perfect fierce shade of strength
My mother’s tongue is curved to the root of my pronunciation
Symphonies and melody of my skin sings solo of independence
For I am fresh chocolate cocoa

Love your colour, embrace your race
You are beautiful beyond measures
