Awaken


I made it!
With feet planted on the ground and
Shouting victory from the top of my lungs

I am victorious.
Death wooed me
It tried to seduce me
with cycles of my past, but
I’d a glimpse of my future.
My destiny revealed itself, and
It’s mystical rewards were greater than
any pain I was feeling.
So, I stop feeling sorry for myself and decided to live.
Not just for me but for
Those who allowed misery to kiss their cheek.
Placing them in a sleep
Neva to awaken from their reoccurring nightmares.
I see dead people and
They don’t know they’re dead.
They’ve found a life of complacency
Refusing to think outside of the box
Allowing others to set their limits, or just
Acquiescing to the past failures
Not me.
I let it go.
I’m free as a bird
Nothing holding me back
Not even walking dead.
Feeding lies to each other, saying
You can’t do it and
You’re far too extreme.
Hell yeah I am
Because death tried to seduced me
It wanted to put me out of my misery
But then I saw purpose and that was far more
Rewarding.
So, I awaken from my reoccurring nightmare
And decided to be me.
The victoriously victor I am.

Woman Indeed



Woman in her purest form lays heart open.
Her gentleness is like a cool summer breeze sweeping across your face.
Her strength comes from her desire to carry the world in her womb
Thus travailing for the success of all she loves.
She chooses to shield you with love
Understanding loves does conquer all,
Hopes all,
Endures all,
She gives all, while simultaneously protecting you with exhortation.
On lookers admires her overcoat of peace and kindness
Radiates from her like the Mississippi River flowing into the Atlantic Ocean.  
Her scent of transparency leaves an aroma of crisp linen blowing in the midday sun.
She is a well-defined woman,
Secure in the essence of her femininity
Beloved by all,
Revered by most she holds her head high
And struts the most,
Even before her haters.
Careful not to speak an evil word as she understands her regal.
Queen of her environment, reigning with wisdom and gaining knowledge
Empowering, educating and inspiring all those around.
She is a lioness in her natural inhabitants devouring her foes, yet feeding her young.
A force to be reckoned with, an anomaly to most.
She is a woman that knows the essence of her femininity.
Allowing her king to lead she follow with glee.
A prowess in her femininity
She is woman indeed.
