Angeleena is a student from St.Mary’s Catholic High School. She admires how writers and poets dive into their own imagination. She also loves to listen to speeches; she gets really inspired by how each speaker wants to fight for what they believe in.
Colours Of Skin
I say to you today that the colour of one’s skin has no value
Skin is just a layer of tissue protecting one’s body
Judging someone by the colour of their skin, is just being shallow
Either light or dark we can only judge a person by their heart
Value someone by their personality
It wasn’t their choice of how they would want to look like
We are bonded together by chains of humanity
But our judgmental minds are blinding us
This whole mess in insanity
Look at life through a different lens
Live in a world where everyone blends
In a world where everyone is friends
Our home, the earth, is round
It has no sides or corners, no first or last
Green and Blue aren’t the only colours, the colours of our skin are included too
So let us be like that;
In a world where racism is put in the past
Where we don’t discriminate, but celebrate our colours
