Changing Future-Poetry

Two different colors of skin
Black and White

Two Different worlds that we grew up in
The slave and the slave owner

When we were told that our society should be this way
But now… Things are changing

The future is coming
Yet we are still from two different worlds

Black and White
Two separate schools

I go to one where we are all white
You go to one where you are all black

I had new books
When You had old

The future is coming
We belong together

But the color of our skin still separates
But we intergraded

We are in the same buildings
In the same rooms

Yet our future is still changing
We need a point where we are one

Where the color of our skin no longer matters
Where black and white no longer matters

We need to live the same life
This is what was meant to be

We need to live up to what people fought for
We need diversity

We are ONE
