Why celebrate a day as the Daughter's Day?
For me every day is a Daughter's Day
Can you imagine a home without a daughter?
A house becomes a home that has a daughter
If a home is the human body daughter is the heart
If i could get the single chance
I’d have a word or two with Hades
I would tell it to him clear and straight
About my thoughts on how he made these
Impacts on much other stories
Paint me a world where girls sustain from mirrors, where love is not weakness, and forgiveness is not taken for blame.
You make the world come alive
You are the inspiration for nations to strive
You are the queens behind the victorious sovereign
You are the prosperous to us, you are God's blessing
Her bones have been broken
she has been scarred
but she still carries on.
She has lived a full life and
has helped and learned others to find
their worth,
yet she still doesn't know her worth.
Dear Hip Hop and Rap and other types of music that were traps for what I thought was a good beat but ended up being everything but that.
Dear Women of the 20th Century,
Women you are stronger then this
Women don’t let men down-size you
When you have all the qualifications but they turn you away
Be soft as a rock
You painted a world so bright,
Right in those beautiful cinnamon eyes;
Lumining the glow of starry summer nights.
You had a sweet innocence in everything you dreamt about,
The W(a)(e)ighting Game
Wait or weight
Which will I choose
Shall I choose to wait while my Prince
Battles a Dragon’s fumes
Momma said when it comes to my subject matter
Always speak the truth on real subjects that really matter
When I'd be in pain she'd always ask baby what's the matter
Why can’t you see me for exactly who I am?
not a sexualized being but
an artist
with expression that runs
deeper than lust,
not as simply a black girl
but a woman
rich with history
It started long ago in the Garden of Eden
Some say it was paradise, I only recall a mirage.
It seems impossible but I know I’ve seen His majesty shining golden.
I remember He formed me from another’s appendage
