Beauty

My beauty transcends your comprehension of who I really be
Seeking to categorize me within your rolodex of previous victims
Sensing, smelling da insecurities of a broken man
I laugh
Hatred, venom reeking from your core as you watch Me
Celebrating my curvaceous lusciousness
No longer enslaved wit da unrealistic version of who I’m suppose to
Be
Look
Weigh
My beauty distinctively embedded
Inside of me
Growing like the tsunami tidal wave
See you can’t handle the truth of who I really be
So just love
Me
This is a shout out to all you men who feel like you have to break
women down because of your own personal insecurities
love us just as we love you
