The Power of a Woman

There is something powerful
But yet striking about a woman
Who knows
Her worth
Knows the direction she
Is heading
And not letting others
Conform her to the
False image she is often
Dictated and obligated to be
Yet she break barriers
Stereotypes that hold her
Down which made her feel
Less than what God created
Her to be
It was paramount for her
To let go of unbelievers
who had no belief in her
Beliefs to believe in
Herself
It was a 911 emergency when
she had to emerge from the coffin
People put her in burying her
Six feet under with her dreams
Stating she would never rise
Again
Because they though the foul feces
dripping out of their mouth would
Turn her off and make her believe
Their lies but this woman
knew her power and now she is tranformed
by her inner light that shines so bright
Eliminating the haterism
Because now she lives life by her own terms
Not letting anyone control her calculations anymore.
This is the manifestation of a powerful woman
In the making
