Who am I?


I am a female of African decent

Not just any female of African decent

But a different one who is UNSTOPPABLE 

Not just unstoppable but also POWERFUL

I have more body fat than the average 17 year old but that does not stop me from being me

I am a DANCER but also a BLOGGER

A blogger with hope of being on Oprah and even on a build board

But also a dancer with the hope of reaching somewhere

But those aren't my ONLY goals

Being a world renowned chef would be nice

Oh how nice I could see it 

I am Arkeema right?

That is my name right?

Oh yeah it is haha

Arkeema..... yeah powerful and complete 

But haven't fully reached both to my desire

I require 7 outlets for my energy I'm just too much to handle they say

BOLD is what they say but INTERESTED is what I call it

BIG is what they call me but BEAUTY is what I see

Arkeema, that is me 

But Arkeema isn't only me so is Ayanna 

EXTREMELY talented and beautiful and even a beautiful blossom

Oh how cute

But also a beautiful back in Africa

Arkeema Ayanna oh yeah you didn't know that my name alone meant so much did you or actions, goals and dreams mean something too right?

I know you didn't that's why I am telling you

I am Arkeema Ayanna but you should also know I am a Chandler too
