Free To Be Me

The richness you see in ME Is not a MISTAKE It was meant for ME Before this time And This place It was given to ME Every negative thought You try to put on ME Every obstacle That you throw in my PATH Will never materialize because I was before you could ask Who is SHE? And Why is she HERE? Before my father caressed my mother’s breast I WAS Before my first crush love And husband I WAS Before the formation of my hips The skin tone on my backbone I WAS You fail to understand I have yet to become who I’m DESTINED to be Freedom to be ME Is what matters to ME Fear is what You feel when you look at ME Doubt is your remedy That you try to feed ME Because the richness you see in ME Because the richness That was given to ME The richness You HATE because I AM FREE TO BE ME
