Who Am I To Be?
Who Am I To Be?
Who am I to be if I am the success of a black woman? Am I the woman who hides behind her color, or am I the young black woman with African traits? Am I the young woman who descended from those of the African tribes? The one who runs with the wild, hunts for clarity and peace?Who am I to be if I wear my pants inside out or wear my toes and nails in vibrant colors? Am I that young woman who everyone frets and fears? No. I am a young woman who was conceived to the parents who no longer agree. I am the child of a queen, the sister of a princess, and a daughter of a man who has failed many times. Who am I to be if I say that I have once failed or if I am the success of a black woman. Am I the woman who hides behind her color, or am I the young black woman with African traits? I am a young black woman with the beauty and traits to those whom are discombobulated. Who am I to be?
