BLACK

Black my favourite colout
i ask myself everyday, what is black?
black is the colour of my skin and the darkness of my skin.
Black always reminds me that i am an African girl born with the skin of my mother,
people say I'm black, but inside me i am proud of who i am, i am proud of my skin colour.
Black the beautiful colour of our Great grand mothers, No matter what people say about my colour, i will always be proud of who i am, i will always be proud of my colour
I will always rise for it
Black the colour of my skin.
