Loving Myself

I just wanted to share a piece of my work with you, hope u enjoy it….

I am nothing short of Fabulous,

I speak LOUD,

with an untamable boldness and a sassy tongue.

I raise my child on my own and without much…

Mommy STILL makes it happen.

I am almost done with my first degree.

Late or not, I’m achieving my dream!

I carry myself like a lady,

speak wisdom as a woman should

and STILL know how to have a good time….

Yeah, I’m pretty fuckin’ Fabulous!

I am classic chic.

I am modern with antique value.

I need no appraisal, I KNOW my worth.

Keep your opinions to yourself cause I ain’t listening no how.

Shit, I stopped caring about what others thought of me back in grade school.

Upgrade who??

Mr, understand there is nothing you can offer me that I’m not already equipped with.

and anything you can buy,  

I’m willing to work an honest day for IF I even want it.

I don’t let a man “complete” me, I let ‘em accent my already Fab nature

Cause in case u can’t tell, I’m pretty Fabulous all on my own.

I stand tall with the heaviest of burdens resting on my neck,

Because make no mistake,

Like I keep tellin’ everybody, I was made to be great!

Through obstacles and dark clouds, I see my success shining through like the sun, so I push past like immovable objects don’t exist,

only ever stopping to work them out in my mind.

My wounds will heal,

Battle scars will no longer be revealed,

but the lessons they brought me will stay in light.

I'll acknowledge my mistakes, but STILL

I’ll walk with my head held high,

chest out and smile bright.

Cause when it’s all said and done, I only have me to love.

I only have me to keep my self esteem where it need be,

Just ME, to trust.

Just me that I owe to do in life everything that I must.

Only my opinion of me matters…

And I think I’m pretty fuckin’ Fabulous!
