I used to write love poems to white boys

 I used to write love poems to white boys


I used to write love poems to white Boys…

I didn’t think love was never about skin color…

Thought white Boys are the standard….

Somehow I wanted to be with a white boy…

He was in the tv series, romantic films…

He was a high status, not thinkin about a black boy…


Years later, I learned that the system has set up 

To create delusions of whiteness is so much better…

Young black women were conditioned to believe white 

Is always right…we keep chasin power and status..

For me, I wasn’t thinkin about power, I was thinkin

About romance, I used to get triggered by people askin

Why do I keep crushin on white boys a lot? What about black 

Boys?” I thought they were being racist…I never understood 

Why they asked me that…until 


I found out about the psychology and history of 

Interracial relationships, the mindset of lovin a

White man, why does black people leave their own 

Race and mate with white people? I’m goin to keep it simple 

As possible..Stockholm Syndrome, and self hatred..

I’m not goin through the list of why…we were conditioned 

And we see white is the greatest status in the world 

Since colonization….yet it’s really not….


I fell into that category…and I didn’t know at the time…


Not that I hate my blackness, I thought love 

Wasn’t about race…i wrote interracial marriages 

Poetry as celebrations…now I look at interracial love 

Differently ever since I learned about black history 

And the tricks of racism.. I watched a YouTube video 

Of a black woman married a white man, she said 

His family had to put her in her place.. she can’t be 

Too black…she had to act white for them to be comfortable..


I’m doin my best to explain this topic.

Cos it’s important..Especially for black women who 

Wanna date and marry white men…who think black men 

Ain’t worth it…for those who believe mix race kids will make 

Racism disappear…


Tell the truth 

Fallin in love with a white man does not give sistahs power…

Writing love poems to a white man doesn’t give us a status….

When you’re with a person who doesn’t look like you, 

People will always judge about your skin color 

When you date a white partner who still has racial ideologies 

And upholds white supremacy 

And you still love and hope this human will change…

You’re goin to be forever lost..


I stopped writin love poems 

Cos I taught myself that racism plays its role…

And white boys white men can never be trusted….

Now I understood the question….

I write love poems to black men 

All kinds of black men 

Black men who loves black women

How they protect them 

I type metaphors to tell them to protect 

Their masculinity….

Cos white supremacy usually turns the

Brothas into women…

And it’s not okay…


There’s nothin

Wrong with black men…

They’ve been in the same boat, too…

It’s why I advocate black love 

Healthy black love 

On social media 

By sharing black couples 

 in Instagram story 

And on threads


Racism is tryin

To erase it 

By continuin to encourage black people

To date outside their race…
