"I will Never Let my Crown Fall"
You see,
Once upon a time
There was this bright brown girl
With dreams of presenting her best to the world
But the task itself
would be like slaying a dragon
and she could only imagine
what exactly would be the elixir to find success.
Through an education and plan, passion and priority,
Our once princess, was crown QUEEN
But like all moments of triumph,
the dark past seem to pull the draw bridge of life
futher away,
No form of riches and gold
6 figure salary or humble praise
could stop society from forgetting to raise
the notion that their QUEEN
originated from
A single parent household
The poverty line
Abussive relationships
Rigid moments of Regret
Sad simple statistics that simply won't suffice
These very things
caused a kingdom
she loved
to
doubt if she had the means to present them the best.
When questioned
The bright brown queen replied,
"I will Never Let my Crown Fall"
