If one day you feel like crying.
Call me, I don't promise u that I will make you laugh but I can cry with you
If one day u want to run away
Call me,I don't promise to ask you to stop but I can run with you
If one day you don't want to listen to anybody
Call me and I promise to be very quiet
But if one day you call and there is no answer
Come fast to see me, perhaps I need you

This poem was nominated for the best poem of 2005, written by an African child:
When I born, I black. When I grow up, I black. When I go in sun, I black. When I scared, I black. When I sick, I black. & when I die, I still black. & you white people. When u born, u pink. When u grow up, u white. When u go in sun, u red. When u cold, u blue. When u scared, u yellow. When u sick, u green & when u die, u gray… & u calling me colored??
