Her beauty isn't measured by some European standard of what beauty should be but by her confidence and the fact that she is loving the skin she's in. To me, that alone is beautiful.

Lost

I stumble upon my mistakes

like a thief in the night

 

blindly

without a clue

 

episodes that repeat

as often as the rain

 

I am lost

somewhere

within a million raindrops

 

I exist

but to die

my footprint visible

only in death

 

I am

the progeny

of a thousand sons

borne

of a thousand daughters

darkened of the earth

 

I am

alpha and omega

pharos to the pharaohs

 

I am lost

yet

I am found

 

desecrated

and despised

spit upon

and scorned

 

I am

a constant reminder

of that

which you are not

 

I am

king of kings

I am black

and I am lost
