I am a woman. Descendant of
Queens and
Goddesses.
I am the warrior who kept fighting
And the one who waged the war.
I am fire, water, air,
and earth.
I calm the storms
and start the fires.
I am generations of keeping this race from dying out
And no thanks for it.
I was not made to be silent
Or to turn a blind eye.
I was born to fight, to rule,
To change what I see.
I am a woman.
Do not mess with me.
This poem was inspired by my mother's boyfriend, and the way he believes I am nothing more than just a twenty-year-old child.
