Sitting down I am, as tear starts to fall down my cheeks. I notice I am alone, and then a light shines in front of me, and I notice I always been alone. So why now, start to be afraid. Now I know where I stand it should be even easier to face the world. Every tear that I drop represents a hard time I had to face, and had over come it. If I ever break down I know I have to be even stronger then yesterday. To love with no thought, to open my heart once and never thought it would happen again, I would consider that a sweet miracle. How silly I was to believe it even mattered what others thought, or said. I control my life, and detriment where I will go, or where I would stay. I love him, even though the world is against it. I would fight with all my heart if I have to, to over come this world. Make them notice it isn't about your color, but whom you are. You can never control your heart, as for I wouldn't want to. The man I fell in love with is the man of my life. The one who made me feel safe, and never feel alone.
