Gedicht über eine Beziehung zwischen einem schwarzen und einer weißen Jugendlichen in Namibia, geschrieben und vorgetragen von Mbakumua Tjaveondja


She asked, Who's your Juliet?

 

I said, I've searched around, nobody yet,

All I know is, hate ends and love begins here,

Guess we're all just looking for a happy ending somewhere.

Most things that last have the slowest start,

To get closer we had to go apart,

The first-time splitting up always the hardest thing,

The pain pierce deep like it was a javelin,

Black and white, like carbon and silicon,

That's a chemical reaction,

Like me, she studied law, law of attraction

Stalking a white babe, am I Peter Parker?

Easy to love but this times it feels harder,

Won’t want it any easier,

Get under my skin like Nivea.

I was only exposed to light women in magazines, don't judge me for adapting,

I don't even like women in magazines, but the west says that's the only vaccines I need,

I'm not perfect, but I'll say that I'm real

If it's real, say how you feel, cause

I don't mind saying' how I feel or I think about you,

Just as much as I don't mind saying I'm good without you.
