Queen

 Chin up young lady

You are a Queen

I hear that word and it took me years to realize what it really meant to be called Queen

I felt flattered and proud when the word Queen was used to describe me

But still I did not behave as a Queen

I did not know what the word Queen truly means

Years and Years of behaving in ways unbecoming or a Queen

No respect for myself lost in the world

Being used and using

Still not realizing I was a Queen

Not even knowing what it meant to be called Queen

Bumping my head into hard walls

Making mistakes

Doing things that were shameful

Thinking I was a know-it-all

But some girls make the choice to follow the hard path

Never taking heed to the mistakes of older Queens of the past

Let me not mislead you

When though the road was rough Even if I fell and fell again

Everything I went through made me tough

I have no regrets

My mistakes molded me, taught me

So all in all grew older, matured

I hear the word Queen

Finally I know the meaning

Queen is Me I am Her

She is Me

I am a Queen
