Not all of me

Not all of Me

You may see my pretty face and light skin but that is not all of me
You may see my designer clothes and professionally done hair but that is not all of me
You see this stuff on the outside and draw conclusions about me spoiled or a brat
But that is not me
If you try to see what is on the inside of me
I will tell you I open doors for the elderly
I go to church every Sunday early
To make this long explanation a short story
I am a blessed black young woman who is trying to get an education
But still that is not all of me

    Nicely done! I really love the thought behind this... we all need to be so bold.
