I Am


I Am

I am a young girl with a vivid imagination

I am a body marked with experience

A body marked with memories, suffers and life lessons

A body where these flaws didn’t matter when you are coated with some of the world’s richest melanin

I am a girl with a crown filled with wisdom

A strong, impatience, loud – spoken BLACK girl

I am a girl who soon realized she is worth much more then society believes

I am a girl who is allowed to place herself above ANYONE who disagrees because I know I am worthy of being FREE

I am a woman who soon believed to live FREELY I had to be unbounded from the world

I am a black woman with bass and power in her stride

I am a Black Woman when she walks by intimidation is the stain she leaves

I became a woman who is unbounded from the words

Unbothered

Unstoppable

I am a woman who was always a princess but became a

QUEEN

I AM QUEEN
