Deep

Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)



This is Deep!

Deep like the roots of a tree!

This is too Deep!

Deep like the oceans and the seas!

Beauty is skin deep!

The words that you speak are deep!

The way that you are is Mellow!

The way that I look is Yellow!

The Secrets that I have I keep! 

The words you spit are simply Deep!
