08:02 pm - Playground
Livid splashes of red and yellow,
Bright colours hiding a tainted world,
A child's playground, a child's home.
A sweet young boy joins the fold.
Dark of skin, bright of eye,
"Get away!" The children cry.
The boy starts, his smile wears thin,
"Let me play, why can't I?"
"You're white as coal, you're not like us!
You're the monster, our mothers told us!"
"I am a boy!" he loudly cries,
This cheerful place, it's ugly grace
"I'm not like you, so fair of face!
But let me in, I'll show you games.
I'll teach you to play, to fly, to sing!"
"The door is closed, forever will be
How can we accept anyone not like me?"
From the mouths of babes, the dreadful truth,
Cruel angels softly sing,
"Get away, you can't come in!"
The colors are stripped, the boy sees truth,
An ugly heaven, the lies of youth.
Step away, child, from the truth of life.
They fears beings not like them or I.
He looks to me, tears in his eyes,
I shake my head, a quiet sigh,
The ghastly truth, the fact of life
We fear beings not like you or I.
