Dark dusky unlike the moon Not suitable for any groom Humiliated in every room Sunlight shines only doom Skin treatments plenty Face scarves twenty Saffron worth every single Penny High SPF sunscreen any



White glowing snow crowned Dark fading rain cloud frowned Nor black or white bleeding Wound Rather colourless ego can fall to ground Life saving whitening creams Not sweat and blood for every dream Burning dark leftover self esteem Conned by well planned scheme Dusky yet beautiful stereotype Lucky to have a fair spouse type Fairer sibling favoured hype Brown fingers rust tears wipe God given divine skin tone Beneath the dark skin honesty shone Wheat bread for a white bone Be marooned in a colour blind zone
