Life, has always been a struggle
Getting up each day, choosing to smile and pray
Thank God! for another day; for loving us; helping us;
washing your blood over us; protecting our minds, bodies and souls
This journey has been tough. Nothing, handed down or given.
Having to work so hard; cry; fight. Family doesn't even care
about your well-being.
Unlucky, when it comes to love, between a man and a woman.
Still, you fight.
Striving to be a confident, strong you. Pushing oneself;
trying new things. Not afraid to relocate if stagnation sets in.
Re-inventing oneself, whenever it's time to move onward
It's a life-long reflecting ride. Keep reminding oneself, that
through these trials and tribulations, there are others who
might be having an even tougher time coping -
going through similar events
Always thinking and knowing "you have to be strong" -
you, can do it.
Hoping to set great examples for our sons and daughters
I'm a resilience; quiet; beautiful soul-
I am, a black girl that "ROCKS"
