Know Your Worth

You are so much more than your hips or your thighs. More than the stares and the glares, or some young man’s lies BUT YOU HAVE TO KNOW YOUR WORTH More stunning than the Mona Lisa Your likeness can’t be molded into sculpture you are living, breathing art. You are not defined by your body, Only your soul and your heart BUT YOU HAVE TO KNOW YOUR WORTH When you look in the mirror, please see more than your reflection. See the essence of beauty a work of perfection. You are the inheritance of the promise. You are the covenant unbroken, You are cries unheard and words unspoken BUT YOU HAVE TO KNOW YOUR WORTH. You are much more radiant than the stars you are breathtaking constellations You are a valley of virtue. A Lady in waiting You are shores of compassion surrounding oceans of faith You are the much needed cool, caressing breeze, on a hot summer’s day. You are the eighth, ninth, and tenth wonder of the world Much more precious than diamonds and pearls BUT YOU HAVE TO KNOW YOUR WORTH You are more mystifying than the pyramids of Egypt, More spectacular than snow caped peeks of Sweden Your presence was predestined in the Garden of Eden. BUT YOU HAVE TO KNOW YOUR WORTH You are the silver lining stretching across the sky, Broadened with truth, both gentle and meek You are the earth’s horizon where land and sky meet. You are a Queen, and upon your head you bare a crown Adorned in wisdom, courage and strength A most magnificent gift of GOD, you are truly heaven-sent But you have to know your worth
