Poetry

Its Just A Face

I don't agree with covering my face

I agree with covering my face

Everytime I see it

I hate it

I love it

I love that I have natural features

That people

Envy

Love

Want

Find beautiful

Yet when I see

I don't find it that way

But I know that whether you see my face

Or don't see my face

I'll haunt your waking mind

I'll haunt you unconscious mind

You'll find yourself begging for forgiveness

You'll find yourself pleading ignorance

You'll find yourself trying to make up for the lost

My words will serenade your soul in ways you've never expected.

If I can not beg for forgiveness

If I can not plead ignorance

If I can not undo what has been done

Then hopefully I can lead the way

To show you

Forgiving yourself is a starting point

To loving yourself

To changing for the better

To make a difference in the world

So I wish to hid my face

And I know

In doing so I give no justice.

In doing so I give no hope

In doing so I'm just cowering

And I refuse to fear
