Colour ME Pride



Colour me, a mirror
cause i am a true reflection of the dream,be on top
They wash away my colour with the traditional black and white

Colour me evil , colour me a bad person
Society, colour me in the colour of your blanket 
masking your hypocrisy
Sometimes i am down
My reflection you distorted, in your eyes i am deformed 
But she whispers dont fall into their trap,
To be weighed down by tide 
Colour me pride

Colour me a rainbow 
Colour me the greatest person alive
Its never too late 
Dont give heed to deride
Colour me a brave person
The voice in my head

My life , down the drain 
No sun shine after the rain
in the raging storm, abide 
Melt in colour in their cultural rivers of hate
She whispers ,the voice in my head

Colour me weak ,Colour me evil
I go by different colours 
To them i am not human, i am a bunch of colours
I am a rainbow so colour me pride

 Any place would provide a better life for me as a queer person other than Africa. Zimbabweans are just so judgmental and institutionalized ...
