A Tone of Caramel

Two Sides of a Day

By Victoria CharliePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I am not your typical girl that you see on the streets.

I am not that beauty that’s in distress.

I am not a princess who lives in castle.

Yet, my story is told based on the color of my body.

Please mistake me not to be your average white girl with pale skin whose hair glitter in gold.

Neither are my eyes as blue as the ocean at sunset with a little hassle glow.

I do not come off as your black girl with dark chocolate skin and short curly hair.

Look across the room, you would see me in a caramel dripping skin tone, with a long, thick, and dark wavy hair. My eyes are golden like the warmth of the sun light
