Being Mixed


Being mixed 
it was hard to come to grips 
with racism and to admit 
that it still exists 
was even harder yet...
My heart is pained
My soul is stained by this knowledge 
I know some of you cant understand
But it's like a blood war is going on inside my veins 
For I come from Slaves 
as well as Slave Owners....
I was made with the blood of two Races 
that have Hated one another for hundreds of years 
And it's become clear
in the past few days,
that it is still very much the case 
In far too many places for comfort
And I wonder.....
Will it ever cease to exist? 

I can only hope....
