Black Beauty

From Real Talk Always by Anthony P. Heard Jr.

Black Beauty

Black beauty is in the eye of the beholder
That young lust turns into truth as you get older
I believe that she is the bone to my shoulder
What she don't know one must teach and mold her
Her mind is connected to man's mind
Built by design to be just like ours
What differs is that there is a lot she still has to learn
About herself and life
Treat that black beauty
As if it was something to cherish
Because even the loyal to that man
If settled too much she will perish
It's the thing we do to our women that draws them away from us
It was our black women's strength that got us off the back of the bus
Hold dear to that queen and give her your all
And trust that she will do the same

Us men let what others say and our own paranoid ways come between
the
best thing that happened to us: the black queen.
