Sharing You

Simply walking by
Saying "hi,
Do you need help?"
A family
With a cars hood propped and being examined

You wouldn't believe what happened...

They said "no
But thank you so much
That is different"

Different that I am white
And stopped

My heart dropped
Spun and broke in two

Oh Lord, what can we do
To show everyone love
All that you made
And to show you don't care about our color shade

Rather you made us all
Piece by piece
Before our eyes saw the light
Surely you had foresight
To make us right
And so why, do those who are white
Seem to gleam? To rise above
While other shades of skin
Are skirted
of opportunities
and of love

Lord,
This cycle please don't bless
It truly is a bloody mess

And not of you

Your love is true
And not condoning
Of others owning
Preference

We are Your beloved
"Red and yellow black and white"
We are all most definitley
Precious in Your sight

May all of this one day be right

Here in the land of the living
May more hearts be giving

Of You...
