I am
I am a black woman
Smooth caramel mocha skin
Sweet
Addictive taste
to sample means to come back for more
Hypnotic
Sassy look
with a stare
I draw you to me
Loyal
Honorable
Treat me Right, I'll Treat you Right
I am a Black Woman
Nowhere near perfect
Lots of Flaws
Prideful I stand to hide behind a buffer for past and future pains
and heartaches
I am a Black Woman
Here I stand with no discriminations
against the enemies of
Jealousy
Racism
No angel I be but no demon will take me
