“Untitled”
Some use titles just to fit in Others use them as a basis to self comprehend I prefer to fly free Taking every moment to get to know me Daily lessons Some harder to accept than others Striving to be strong like my pops But nurturing like my mother At times I feel so...
Blending
I just kept going Didn’t stop to consider who would be affected In survival mode So many signs neglected Didn’t stop to consider that there were too many transitions Too many for your mind to comprehend I expected you to adapt they say children are resilient Gifted as...
Start where you are
Sometimes in life, we can see the big picture, but struggle to see how we are going to get something done. We can see the end goal and get overwhelmed by the how. So what do you do? You start where you are. Take inventory of the skills, resources, materials, etc...
Take Charge

Queenin’
We're taught to nurture Allow you to suckle upon our breast Then expected to carry the load of the shit that you left You turn to hoes that don't mind bending over Make it clap Then resenting the woman that's been riding for you because she can't twerk it like that...

Deceived by Perception
