open letter to black women

by EJPredeoux

Black woman, Don't let their definitions define you. Unless they define you, as "queen" nothing in between or nothing far-fetched of that word. You, Queen, are superb. You, are a work of genius sent to earth by the great man upstairs himself. Embrace your imperfections. God don't make mistakes. Black woman, love your faults. Love your flaws, and everything that you strive to change. Love them all. I would Kiss your stretch marks, I would embrace your natural soul. I wouldn't want you to have to hide behind make up, Take the mask off. Because your future is worth so much more. Black woman.
