[bodytext] => I wonder what’s worst To see hate or to feel hate Sometimes I feel God made a mistake He brought me into this world without the ability to see The hate these people place against me I’ve never seen the face of my oppressors Or understood why I must receive the lesser End of the respect I give them I just wish I knew what I am They call me all types of names and treat me like dirt They give me scrapes of food like the dog has more worth They say it’s because of the color of my skin Why my life must come to an end But they are the ones with the eyes so why can’t they see That you all look black to me I wasn’t given the chance to see anyone’s face Or see why people kill because of race Oh God, please take me from this place Ease my heart with your amazing grace Take me from the people who want to destroy me Take me from these people who want to ignore me Ignore the fact that I don’t care About the color to your face or the texture of your hair Take me God, from this place I don’t understand Why I’m not allowed to be a blind man [comments] => 5 [counter] => 235 [topic] => 43 [informant] => thewordzwithin [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
