the skin i am in
I am Nasir 
 Hardworking, Bad, Brave, Aggressive, Talented 
 The Skin I’m in is intelligence 
 The Scars on the surface remind me of fighting that day and got cut by a pocketknife by a boy
 In my Dark chocolate skin eyes I see my life go by
 Like the wind in the air ad the floor 
 In my frown I feel like a man growing up
 In the sound of intelligence information everyday
 From my lips I say to stay happy and enjoy life while you have it 
 People outside me think I am a good friend and dancer 
 In my ears I hear people talk about me and my likes and how I look in the world my mom put me in 
 Inside my side of my skin and me I feel ashamed and self-convinced about what other people say to me 
 My skin may not show the real me because the real me will never back down and is brave, intelligence, and enraged and is easy going 
 Someday I will love my skin but just not today
