Posted by miss_vlovve on 2015/02/28 under Uncategorized I miss the get-a-ways we used to have! The way you would drive an hour just to pick me up after school on Fridays.. JUST TO spend the weekend with you and your family. I grew to love you and understand the way your mind and heart was set up. The closer I got to you and your family and friends just made me feel more alive. The more alive I felt when i was with you.. Only made me see how much I loved being there with you. And how much I could truly be myself. I wish I was with you now. I wish my parents didn’t have to find out so soon. The color of your skin shouldn’t matter. It’s not wrong to love you. So I’m gonna love you. Nothing will change that. The lies were made just for our sake. To be with you. Otherwise, if they were okay with you being black then I wouldn’t have to lie about where I was. In which we both were aware of. I’m 18 and you’re 25 so what? I have grown so much to what seems more like “Me Myself & I” could have ever gone through alone. I am stronger then I appear to my own parents who have sheltered me my whole life. That they should trust me enough to know who I would surround myself with. They may not trust the people around me.. But that’s why you make the effort to meet the love of my life.. In which I thought I had found plenty of times before. But I have learned more quickly then they probably would have ever imagined. Age is no accountability for maturity. Maturity comes with experience, comes with knowledge, and even when you recognize your own failures. I have somewhere I wish I could be.. But going through punishment because I was hiding my black boyfriend.. sure is fair. Although, for his sake I shouldn’t be kept away from him. I shouldn’t have to be left not knowing that he was told to never come near me again. “that its forbidden to see him again” I won’t allow that to happen. I may be wishing that I was with him right now. But i’m certain that I’ll be spending forever with him. So later is definitely worth waiting for. This sucks, life could be simple.. But So much for equality in America.
