Reclaim
A college grad, a vet, and strong melanin rich queen
On the outside looking in, you think I got it all figured out
You see my accomplishments and drive
I seem motivated and always ready to strive
On the inside, I’m a scared little girl
Terrified of facing the world.
As I grow older, as I begin to reclaim my time.
Things are looking up!!
At this very moment reclaim my peace
I reclaim my JOY
I reclaim my SELF-CONFIDENCE
I reclaim my ESSENCE
The Essence of TIARRA
I’m RECLAIMING me!!!!
