I just wrote what I felt, I would appreciate if you could tell me if I there's any mistakes in it, because i'm not that good at english, so... Thanks anyway..


Racism

When you call me names,
I don’t like it at all,
I want to scream loud,
But i’m too unsure.

How can a friend like you,
Still call me names like an immature,
Things and names which hurts me,
And make me feel so tiny.

I don’t know how to act,
Or how to express my feelings,
Only one thing i’m sure;
In this country i’m all alone.

I talk to my friends about this,
They don’t understand the feelings,
There’s only a friend who understands,
But she’s way too away from me.

I wish I could leave,
Forget all this and be free,
To my country where I belong,
Away from the people I don’t love.

This feeling is growing bigger and bigger,
Finally I know what it is called;
Only HATE can be the word,
To the people I despite for real.

Racism got the HATE in me on fire,
I can’t describe, it’s like a desire,
But the control is not mine anymore,
-soon you’ll feel the pain I’ve felt,
-... and much more.

the control is yours, turn the other cheek.... ''dont fight fire with fire''....you have a choice.....
