For The Love Of A Black Man

No one will ever understand,

my love for a Black Man.

From their,

personalized style

to their white teethed smile.

The strength of their frame

To the history behind their names.

Understand their,

past that is checkered

A Black Man,

A man I will always treasure.

The thick lips, the alpha spirit,

ooh,

the passion in their rhythmic lyrics

and,

I love them more than,

they can ever understand.

My Beautiful Smart Black Man.

.

.

Understand

Your,

struggle to break through chains

in a world that wants you shackled

the fear to be a man

when that man faces battles

battles that leaves him tired and weary

battles that judge him without a hearing;

A hearing that shows they cant love him so they fear him

A hearing that declares him armed and dangerous.

A man that can never change in-

A world

nobody will ever understand,

unless its through the eyes of a Black Man.

Never Understand

how The Republic

“for which it stands”

Still treats this powerful strong Black Man.

A Man that needs help carryin' his boulders

that are thrown on his broad strong shoulders.

Boulders placed, locked and chained.

Chains placed to hold him back again and again.

A Black Man that needs love

From someone whos paid attention

Who has took the time to stop and listen

Who shares the pigmentation of his skin

and

.

.

.

Nobody will ever understand

The way A Black Woman

understands.

They Cant ever comprehend

My Love for a Black Man.
