-True Colors-
 

Where the bluest of ocean meets pink skies on the horizon.
Rainbow Raindrops capsizing; The morning sun rising.
These interaction of hues, are of satisfaction to you?
You say yes, But I know your attraction's untrue.
The mixed green and light blue, of a mornings fresh dew.
The black night changing to, the white moonlight's debut.
Through and through; I cant see how one could draw this view:
That when its nature, its beauty. But when its skin, it's taboo.

All too true. We're Like a 'facial-formation', to be honest,
Our interracial-relation causes people to 'frown' on-us.
Cuz they keep bigoted minds shut-tight like an eye-lid
And fidget with the twines of anything hy-brid.
For they love the blossom of deep purple, and would never wish to fade-it.
But forget it was blue and red petals that came together to create-it.
May not fit-in ur-group if one's peach and another's brown
But we stick-to-our-'roots', since we 'hold eachother down'.
Feelings deep, you can't dodge it; you just can't dislodge it
Why must ours be a battle between love and logic?
Love says: "Ive been there since the first time you kissed-him"
Logic says: "You cant marry a muslim and a Christ-ian."
But forget-them, and fuck that whole world they exist-in,
For if we were resisting, look what we'd be missing.
Tho he has different hues in the hint of his face,
I wouldnt fix them to match; not a tint nor a trace.
Even tho if they did, we would be more accepted
But why wish change on somethin already perfected.
I see his true colors, and there's nothing Id trade
For together, we make the most beautiful shade.

Wow. You've seriously got a way with words. I mean, you rhyme things and you play with them and it doesn't even look like your trying yet you got such awe-inspiring material. And the subject matter itself, inter-raciality, is expressed through your veiws on how you see it and it makes others, in this case me, see what you see.

See, when you speak of the sea, I see what you see, see? Yeah...

Amazing.

Got no real comments on this piece....it was powerful, and er...well as i said, don't feel my words would do it justice...

...so instead i'll just say it was so damn well written like always...

...resp...

Madd respect for this piece. Tight wordplay and like he said, words couldn't do it justice....

Thank you very much Necro, V, Heisse...Mad Luv to u all for takin the time. I appreciate it. Thanks again.

that was sick as hell, for real!!!!! ive read alot of poetry an that shyt was tha truth...thats about all i could say, peep my shyt tho i wanna see what u would think its under has ne1 ever felt like this...

I can honestly say out of all the pieces i have read i would say this is the most beautiful one. I read poems from my gal friends and i love it. So pleaze do write some more i look forward to it.

How long did it take u to write it? I wish i could write like that but i have trouble gettin stuff from mind to paper.

Thanks a lot.
This particular piece I think too me about 20-25 mins to write.

I don't usually do this. As i don't excel at doing them (i.e. i stink at them usually)..

..but you want to do a collab sometime? I'm just intrigued by the way you write, yet reach such depth with imagery. And would like to play off that.

Anyway, if you don't, it aint no bother. Just an idea, one that is kind of fleeting at that....

PM if the answer is oui or si...

V, you've got mail.

Damnnnn...that hit a nerve wit me haha- it was so true, like..it was one of the poems u read, and u jus think-
the flow--on point... the topic--on point is was jus amazing, i dont know how else to put it, jus take it as the highest complement..

^Thank you. I really appreciate it.

One more time up

I have been wantign to get to read some of your shit but never got the chance until now. Your good real good.. (can't be better than me though *wink*) You know i"m palying we can be equal lol... OoNnEe

real nice man!

Thanks.

Somebody...Anybody..

This was probably one of the deepest ones I've read on here. Actually, it was the deepest. I completely agree that words can't do this justice. You need a hug for this one ;)

I liked how you compared the sky colors to skin colors. Wow, this one should be in a book.

"Where the bluest of ocean meets pink skies on the horizon.

You say yes, But I know your attraction's untrue.

That whole part there was very good. You made it so easy to picture real life with just words. Then I liked how that last line fit in there.

"For they love the blossom of deep purple, and would never wish to fade-it.
But forget it was blue and red petals that came together to create-it.
May not fit-in ur-group if one's peach and another's brown
But we stick-to-our-'roots', since we 'hold eachother down'."

I really liked those lines too. I wish I could say more about why I liked it but I can't. All I can say is that it was extremely good.

"Love says: "Ive been there since the first time you kissed-him"
Logic says: "You cant marry a muslim and a Christ-ian."
But forget-them, and fuck that whole world they exist-in,"

This part is something I kind of disagreed with. I mean, love is blind, so I'm not saying Christians and Muslims shouldn't marry. But, being a Christian, I can understand how hard it would be to do that. Both religions say not to marry someone of different faith. I dunno, I guess I'm just saying make sure the Love is real before going through with something like that. It would be a lot of hard times for both people.

"Tho he has different hues in the hint of his face,

Ah man, this was another good part of it. Damn, I wish I could explain more why I liked it. It went together very well. It couldn't be any more true.

I pretty much quoted your whole piece here, and I'm sure this response is going to be a mile long, but I feel it's the least I could do in response to such a good piece. The hug is always open for you but you have to come to me to get it :P

I just noticed your post to me in the "life through the eyes of a bird" post and wanted to say sorry for overlooking you :P It was definately my loss..hehe.

Legendary..You're my new best friend.
heh, Naw, but seriously..THANK YOU so much for that reply. That just makes it worth posting. I really, sincerely, appreciate it.

I cant even express the feelings I had while reading the piece, nor can I quote my favorite part from it. If I had to, I think I would be forced to quote the entire piece and then highlight it. Maybe underline some pieces.

This was dope, you speak so well with words and the inner rhyme scheme is untouchable by any other female netcee I've seen or heard about. This is truely the gift to others.

Well, enough flattering you. Do audio with me, and I'll be happy. You know how I love you GeGe, come back to the freak-nest whenever you have time.

I never post on the poety i just read them, but i mean this one took me away, i sat for 20 minutes after reading it just imagining you writing it, it had so much feeling to it, it wasnt just writing, that doesnt justify it, it was like alive, it took me away and nothing me or anyone could say or write could do justice to this piece... keep up the good work, ill definetely be reading up on more of your poety.
