Beautiful Black Man
by Victoria Z
Like a lion that stands over his pride
And has dominion over his land
You are fearfully and wonderfully made
Strong Beautiful Black Man
You are a centrifugal and driving force
That draws me deeply into you
You are everything that my heart desires
Your love I could never refuse
Even in those times when it seems
That the world knows not your name
I will always be there to remind you
Of your strength, your pride and your fame
Though most personify fear of you
Because of what they do not know
For it is not what their eyes can see
But rather what their hearts truthfully know
That your abilities are limitless
Your hands can accomplish any task
Even when it seems impossible
You always manage to show contrast
I am only trying to reassure you
That I am the exception to the rule
That I will love you no matter what
Win, draw, or lose
Even when you are feeling
That you have lost your place in this land
Sometimes being portrayed and even told
That you are less than a man
Dont you give in to anger
Please dont hold your head down
Exhibit your strength and your pride
Remember, you wear a crown
Because You are still a King amongst Kings
In my world, you are high in demand
Remember, I do love you no matter what
My Strong Beautiful Black Man!
