I hear the voises down the hall. "Hey white girl" They call out. But my color isn't all i'm about. I wish there was some way I could make them see. Why can't they just let me be. God made us alike and yet we still fight. Look at what our society has done! It has taught us to hate everyone.

Its a bit short, but you definitely get your point across.It actually reminds me of the Black Eyed Peas song "Where is the Love?". If you haven't heard it, its an excellent song. Anyway, you specifically reminded me of this set of lyrics: "But if you only have love for your own race Then you only leave space to discriminate And to discriminate only generates hate" You have a great message in your poem and its one that many people are trying to get across, but hate still remains and descrimination and racism will always be prevelant, whether we like it or not. It's like my Pastor at church always says "Nothing is more difficult to erradicate than unintelligent prejudice" Excellent job with this, though I would suggest running it through spell-check and such.

Although I can't fully agree with the poem (I don't believe in god) ... I do think this is very true. It's a little short, but I think if you expanded it, it wouldn't hold the same effect.
