The Woman I Am

 

The woman I am

Raised by strength 

It is in me

Embedded 

The Struggles 
The Pain 

So I know I have to stand strong
A Black Woman
Representing my name given to me by Mothers before me 
I have huge shoes to fill

My job
To be the woman I was raised to be 
My job 
to raise my daughter to be the woman I have tried to be wished to be and at times failed to be
