Strong Black Woman!

I AM a strong BLACK woman

from the FULLNESS of my lips

to the THICKNESS of my hips

When I WALK in a room

ALL eyes on me

because they LOVE to see

My head high

the SINCERITY in my smile

the PROUDNESS in my walk

the PROFESSIONALISM in my talk............

I've had a LONG fight

but I made it

looking to the future

of happiness and RICHES

I AM strong and giving

nappily BEAUTIFUL, not conceited

I try to be the BEST at what

I do

I try to be the BEST,

even PLEASING you...............

I am the BEST

"Strong black woman" on my tomb

when I’m laid to rest!

Playing Games

I’m not trying to play

I left that road when I was eight

Got on the road to “Don’t need that shit”

And took the “Never turning back" exit

I see what you think I don’t

You trying to play me, but I won’t

Fall

For the shit other girls do

Go through the changes when I really don’t have to

Don’t have time for games

I’m not trying to make a deal with you

On being your front, back, nor down low chick

Only calling me when you need a fix

I need a MAN to take control like “Charles in Charge”

Have big things

Packed real large

Big things don’t mean between your legs

Let me take a minute to explain

Not a big house

Not a big car

Not a big baller

Or a wannabe superstar!

Big future

Your mind

Your ambition

Your drive

You talk it and walk it

strive for perfection

I wish you could walk a day in my shoes

And see how you play

You would understand why I am this way

i don't think i could ever love someone

as much as i love u

i've tried the relationship thing

but it always comes back to you

will i ever be able to break away

this hold you have on my heart

it hurts so bad

to want

what u can't have

u only have one true love in your life

and my one true love

tried to make me his wife

walked away from everything we had

cause i thought he wasn't being the man

the man i thought i wanted

needed

my mind was not focused on his

dream and

now i'm left with a million pieces

of my heart

trying to get back what i had

from the start

the moral of my story

if i knew then ........

what i know now

i would be the girl

sittin on your throne

wearin your crown

but i was so blinded

couldn't see the forest for the trees

that i didn't realize

my grass was green

FEAR

The definition of fear is

the act of being scared

and sometimes I ask myself,

why am I so afraid....

I wish I wasn't so afraid

to go out into the dark

For the fear I might get shot

My mom did ~that one dreadful night~

Someone should have turned on the light

I wish I wasn't so afraid!

I fear that my daughter has seen

too much of my bad ways

Afraid that I waited too late to change

I'm scared that thru the womb, I passed the wound

and she can feel the pain...

Why do I fear falling in love?

So much hurt so much pain

been there, done that

afraid of going thru that shit again...

Afraid it will be the same!

I fear that I will never find

that one...

I fear that I'll be left all alone

scared I can't give my heart anymore!

I fear that I will leave this place too soon

afraid I won't get a chance to tell everyone,

I love you...

I'm afraid that my fears

will get in the way

of everything I need to do and say

I fear that I won't use my voice

and be all that I can be

but my greatest fear is

losing ME!
