who listens
when brown girls cry?
who loves them
when they're lonely?
who offers sweet smiles
on days they don't feel pretty?
who understands
brown girl pain--
the special moments
the breakdowns
before the breakthroughs?
who walks the road
to their recovery
with them?
do we deserve
emotional pit crews
trained in instant repair?
who knows
what's wrong
before we reveal the frown?
who listens...
who loves...
who offers...
who understands...
who walks...
who knows...
