Teenage angst they call it
A lost soul seeking refuge in words
She is a banana,they sneered
Yellow skin but white at heart
She has no mother cause she lost her mother's tongue.
Youre just a worthless piece of shit
the words rang in my ears.
to shake away the daggers pointing at me
i took the plunge
dived into the well of darkness
the burning voice ran like rivulets down my naked body
as im entombed in the womb
praying to be reborn
in a new life
to begin a fresh start
im coming,im coming
to promises where skin doesnt matter
when language wont divide us
im finally home
