Evolution of a Nonconformist

My evolution may not be televised, but it will be read and heard by hundreds if not by thousands it will empower me if no one else I am a New Millennium Woman Not defined by tradition or definition So don't label me because I can't be bought or sold I've been called a nonconformist a rebel and a militant marching to the beat of my own drum living life by my own rules I am a Queen who knows her place with or without a King by my side and I'm ok with that Now I'm not trying to knock the brothers because I love yall dearly but I'm strong enough liberated enough and independent enough to know that a relationship will not make or break me This is 2005 and sexuality is no longer black and black, black and white or man and woman it's whatever I want it to be whenever I need it to be I'm an evolutionist living in an evolutionary world with an open mind and a love for people however I refuse to conform to whatever and whomever society thinks I should be I'm a natural born Artist forever thinking outside the box true to my acorn tanned complexion and my long flowing locks God Blessed me with the power of words and the power to form those words so that others can connect feel and relate to the passions I feel about life I've learned a lot and I'm constantly growing discovering new truths for myself everyday and the more I grow the more I'll share and the more my evolution will become our evolution and the greater we all will become.
