Who I Have Become
The Leaders of Yesterday have become Me
Their Skin and Bones have become Me
Their Heartbeat, Mind and Spirit have become Me
Their Strength, Perseverance and Determination have become Me
Their Voice, Prayers and Vision have become Me
Their Blood, Sweat and Tears have become me
Their Dreams of the Future have become Me
Who Have I Become
THEM
MY African and African-American Ancestors
who have Paved the Way and Molded Me to be the Best I can Be
As they look Down on Me
Is THEIR Reflection they See
