People can't fall in love with whomever they desire because society has made everything the race version of Romeo and Juliet.
"Naw girl, he ain't a Capulet... you know what's gon' happen if you go THATAWAY!!"
One day, when my hopeful chul'ren become adults and fall in love... i just pray that they find somebody they're compatible with ---- someone they can grow old and be happy with, share life stories with. And if they do seek companionship by a person of another race, color, creed, ethnicity, religion... or planet, then they'll be in that union free of ostracization, hate, slander, prejudice/discrimination and ridicule.
And i say this because this is what i go through. Now. Have been. And i know it will be like this for some time to come.
Like, why do we disguise and run?
The truth is there, but they still chastise and make fun.
Cuz all i wanted to do was strictly for the heart... you can see it in my eyes, i hide none.
What some may deem taboo, like its a shame, don't do...
Is a prize for one.
Don't matter if a die being shunned.
Trying to play to the worlds percussion, and this is just one guys drums.
And i harmonize, to express my qualms --- a song from my mind, and i stressed this long.
... but my cries are unsung.
