Dark like the nights sky
Like opal or onyx
Dark like your mama should of named you
Nubia or Ebony .
Obsidian is more like your skin
It is magical
And
magnificent
Skin so deep it can't be helped
but to call you chocolate.
You are
Dark like the nights sky
Like opal or onyx
you make the stars shine a little brighter
Your skin is that which holds more
Weight than gold.
Your skin is that of which is sun kissed
What a miracle
Skin as dark as yours can't be burned
From getting close to the sun
Dark girl
Don't you know
You are dark like the nights sky
Like opal or onyx
But that doesn't mean you can't shine
So don't you let anyone
Take your shine
Away.
