You're Beautiful

'Too dark'

'Ugly'

'Fat'

'Black ass'

Words that cut deeper than a knife.

Can you believe it?

I'm being judged for based on my skin color.

You would think I'd be called;

Chocolate,

Beautiful,

Melanin Goddess,

or even thick.

But nah,

they just hatin' on me.

Just because I'm black I'm apparently not human.

But I know I am in every single way.

Their words can't bring me down.

Always tell yourself that you're beautiful

just the way you are.
