Standing with the crowd <br />Why can I not be proud? <br />Since ages I have been differed <br />For the reason I am colored <br /> <br />My existence is similar to you <br />I sleep, I drink, I chew <br />Even I have an insight <br />It’s just that I am dark; you’re light <br /> <br />Don’t look at me with disgust <br />We dwell on the same crust <br />I ask you will it be right <br />To say we need day and no night <br /> <br />If you are a gem to your mother <br />I am a loved one too, my brother <br />I deserve no hate or despect <br />I am a human, please respect <br /> <br />To me and you a time will come <br />A day in the divine kingdom <br />A judgment without respite <br />For he sees no Black or White<br /><br />Preetam Shetty<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/black-or-white-3/
