Color Of Pride

For AJ, Jada, and Jordan

By Chantea JanesPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Born with the color of love-

Royalty at its' best;

In adversity,

My color of strength,

Surmounted when oppressed.

Raised with the color of love,

Society established it a label;

Three generations in a home,

Our color of faith set the table.

Lived with the color of love-

In a season full of pain;

My reflection

In the glass ceiling,

Which keeps my color chained.

I am the color of love

And the color of innovation,

I've shattered the glass ceiling

With my color of passion and dedication.

Yet, there's rage from diversity-

With love it'll soon subside;

I am living my life for tomorrow's unity,

I am the color of pride.
