Check out some of her poems below;
..I AM AFRICAN... I AM BLACK...!
So
your beauty was there all along,
Hidden beneath your busyness,
they led you on to believing
that
you're not good enough...
You
told yourself to struggle to be who they like....
They
said that you have issues with yourself
And
could never win the wars in your mind...
They
called you imperfect...
You
we're bothered that these parts
that were imperfect would never let you meet
up to them...
Maybe you should be thinking of letting them want to be you...
You are gold, you are treasure...
Your flaws are what constitute your beauty...
Maybe you should be thinking of letting them want to be you...
You are gold, you are treasure...
Your flaws are what constitute your beauty...
You
really are imperfect...
Imperfect
is good, imperfect is life
you last longer and shine brighter under hard conditions
Nature made you well,
you last longer and shine brighter under hard conditions
Nature made you well,
she
couldn't have made a mistake;
You have to look into yourself
You have to look into yourself
and understand who you really are....
You
embraced flaws, you indulged your pride
you let your eyes see you in a whole different light
you realized how precious you really are
You are black, beautiful, strong and African
you let your eyes see you in a whole different light
you realized how precious you really are
You are black, beautiful, strong and African
