People say there's no way this will work
We don't need their negative voice
Everyone around us is telling us no
We told them this was our choice
No one should influence us or our reasoning
We could care less about what they say
Race, skin color why does it matter?
We're in love and it's staying that way
The important thing is that we're together
Their world doesn't interest us now
No one on earth can stop this from happening
We've made that our goal, our vow

great poem
I love this poem. It's a lot like my style actually. I like the flow and the topic and the title was perfect. If I had to chose something for you to improve, it would be to add a few more descriptive words in there. Other than that, it was great. Take care,

Wonderful poem
So simplistic and so beautuful. Don't you wish that everyone could get along. I really like your poem it is exsactly what I have been looking for. People really need to realize that no matter your skin color, what laungage you speak, or how much money you have that every one is a person. I love what this poem says and it says it is a amazingly poetic way.
Congradulations your a finalist. Thank you for this great write! -
Beautiful poem
It's not the people who are in love, but the people or society around them in their unfounded beliefs. I thank you so much for sharing this with me and good luck in your challenge...

this was so true in meaning! i hate how nowadays people are resrticted by the beleifs they grew up with. i grew up with the thinking that the races shouldnt mix. after 16 years of that bull, i said enough was enough and i threatened to move out if my parents didnt change their way of thinking. thanks for having the courage to write this, it may open up alot of people's minds to new ideas!
