Her


Her 4`11 stature should intimidate you

Her brown curly hair that can`t be tamed should be seen as beautiful

The way she walks in a room should be respected

Her

that brown skinned girl is a QUEEN

A Queen is defined as a female ruler of an independent state especially one who inherits the poistion by  birth

By birth

I was born into this role

From my mother she held a princess for 9 months

She birthed a Queen

A Queen is a girl who respects herself and others

A Queen is a girl who believes beauty comes in all shades , sizes, and defiitions

A Queen is a girl who has goals and aspirations

Never lets anything stop her

A Queen is a girl whose confidence shines just enough to not be cocky or concieted

A Queen is characterized as a person who has a noble character

ethical

puts others before herself

focuses on uniting all people

ability to smile , inspire, and comfort other people in good and bad times

A Queen knows her past , understands her present, and moves toward the future

Her

The girl who isn`t defined by what people think of her color and her race as a whole

Her

The girl never seeking definition from society

A Queen is a girl who doesn`t let her fears stop her from success

A Queen values education and knows what doors it will open for her

Her

The girl who used to not find beauty in herself , now doesnt have to be reminded she is beautiful by people, guys, or society

Never has to be reminded

Ever

That she is a Queen

I am so proud to speak about this QUEEN knowing she is ME.

<p>This poem was for an I am scholarship so for you to tell me I&#39;m not special is exactly what I&#39;m tryna get over day to day , the people&nbsp;in society who think I&#39;m nothing ,like you . So thank you ma&#39;am or sir for your disgustingly rude comment but it&#39;s irrelevant to the Queen I am. You wake up and realize who I am and who every other Queen is . We can all be Queens , idk who confused you and your one minded thinking but they messed you up. Thank you ma&#39;am or sir .</p>
