Slapping me,
over and over again,
with your words,
I hate feeling like we don’t belong,
your feelings for another is strong,
you have a fetish for another race,
I can see it in your face,
as you seem to lose your focus on me,
when u see one of them walking down the street,
I don’t want to hear you speak,
your words burn my skin underneath,
I don’t want to be a witness to your eyes,
as they stare at her with such delight,
I hate feeling like I am not enough,
I don’t look like them,
I don’t act like them,
I will never be like them,
I hate when u say my eyes look like theirs,
because I am not their race,
and I don’t want to be,
you make me feel like shit,
because you make me not want to be me.
