Lettin' Go

Lettin’ go




I am here in my present
(Leaving behind my past)

I am hurting and I am a human being 

I long to be loved by a good man

I am a beautiful black ‘chocolate’ full figured woman I wear a 42-44D bra and am something like 210 pounds

Love me or Hate me; either way I am goin’ to love me so if you accept me and love me that’s good but if you hate then go on and hate me

An encouraging poem of the celebration of embracing and loving who we are--and not being conformed to what society says we should be--you go girlfriend!

Its good how you choose to express your longing and feelings by your words.. yeah! though i think that you really didn't have to mention anything about your figure or color. The best line in the poem is the last one.. :) anyways, so I'm gonna follow your poems now..

I needed to talk about my figure and my color. I talk about my own personal issues/myself. I wished to express them in my Poem because I turned 30 before I felt gorgeous pretty or good-looking I always felt ugly all the time before that and I had weight issues since childhood too so I did. But thank you for your comments...

Ayesha whatever you do don't let go of those thoughts, I don't think you need to say anything about your colour or figure, your thoughts are from the heart and I like that, well done...David

Sometimes I can't get to everyone that reads my poetry, but I'm here now. It is always good to leave the past behind. You are a special person why, because God made you. Smile - JESUS loves you. Lucilla

It is what's on the inside that counts....remember that. If you can honestly like yourself as a person, then who cares what others' think.....
