I believe a few words can open your eyes,
a few can break your heart and also...

Take time to think
for even a mad man thinks as he...

My black skin has people staring
in awe...

I have cried and wept,
believed and had faith...

In my life,
I have grown to...

Lately, all I hear
from the African...

I always wonder what
life would be like if...

She calms me down
with just her touch...

I hide behind fake lines
of being a proud African son...

I shed tears for all that has
been lost...

Laugh now, cry later
and smile always...

I scrolled through pages,
reading the lines of a book...
