Friday

Don't let'em keep you down

So I spoke to her and she said-
-listen child
I been thrugh more than you could imagine
my heart's been torn apart
my legs been ripped open
my hairs been pulled and flattened
but there's one thing
that never waivered
and that's my love for myself
even though I was mistreated
I still say these words
in the morning,
just to keep me sane
and I wanna tell you
there ain't nothin wrong
with getting hurt
just as long as you don't
wallow in the pain
glare those big gorgeous eyes
and begin to
feel it in your pulse
so I say these words
with conviction because that's
the only way I know how
I let these words guide me
because they make me feel different
yes of course honey
we are all the same
but a woman has got that
special thang-

We live to create.
We live to love.
We live to live.
