Oh! Dear Black Girl

Society discriminates the people of dark-skinned, and
yesterday I found a girl with complexion black
she was whining in sorrow
sad about what happened yesterday

In a polite way
I said to her
oh!dear black girl don't be sad
the whites hate the color black
but they eat the cupcakes with black

oh!dear black girl, the world is full of miseries
that's why everything here is temporary
oh!dear black girl, it doesn't matter
whether you're dark-skinned or fair-skinned
'cause beauty lies in people's eyes

Oh!dear black girl don't cry in pain
your tears will go away as soon as it rains
oh!dear black girl don't lose your hope
as nothing can hurt you
until you lose hope

Oh!dear black girl be courageous and fight
'cause discrimination will continue
until you fight with all your might
oh!dear black girl don't suicide
as life is a ride
where everyone has to sit side by side

Oh!dear black girl stand with a vow
that I will never be defeated
whatever may come
oh! dear black girl don't feel you are different
'cause different are those who say complexion black indifferent

Black girl with all the qualities of a fighter
fight on the field of discrimination
as discrimination will continue
until she fights for her rights

Battling and battling with all the evils
vanishing all the society devils
at last she won the war
and shouted for the removal of racial discrimination.

~ARUSHI SAHU


This prose is about a dark skinned girl who has been bullied cause of her complexion from all around the world. Wherever she went she had to listen one or the other taunt about her complexion. She’s is totally depressed….

But another girl tries to encourage her by saying that it’s what heart matters and not the complexion. And that’s what we all have to do. It’s clear that nowadays the racial discrimination is not increasing rapidly. But still there are thousands of people who are going through this racial discrimination. All we need to do is to become hope for those people and help them get out of this misery.

And together we have to eradicate racial discrimination from this earth….
