Am sorry if you are disgusted by my skin color,
It might be dark,
but the light beneath it
can render you blind,
it is brighter than the day.
Am sorry if am too small to feed your appetite,
the strength within
can kill a giant.
Am sorry if am huge to nauseate you,
too big is my goodness,
I can heal a broken soul.
Am sorry if am too tall,
I can see the bigger picture.
Am sorry if am too short,
My pride is as short as I am,
Am right where I need to be.
Am sorry if my voice annoys you,
I'll still shout Hallelujah.
Am sorry if am too poor,
The things on my radar are priceless.
Am sorry if I served you the wrong meal,
Forgive my manners,
This is no apology.
As long as your blood is red,
and the air we breathe is the same,
I owe you n o t h i n g.
