Narrating Your Own Story
i have
waited
for
a
spark
a slight
glimmer of hope
that
would show me
that You
still notice
me.
pathetic as it sounds
i
have
thrown
myself
at You
and
i
had to
pick myself
up
from
that groveling state
and remember who i used to be. Before
and
tell myself that I will never crawl into that
fetal position again
and have control over my own life
i used to cling to the hope
that
You would look
down at me
from Your golden pedestal
that
i placed you upon
why do i bend down to Your every request
i glorifyyou like a GOD
in this process i have lost myself
decimating any existing self respect
i ask myself why?
You are just a man, and nothing more.
i confused love, for an all encompassing slavery to my heart
you are a but a mortal man
in My minds eye
and I have a beautiful soul
that deserves to be explored
I am
a
goddess
in My own right
I am each and every woman
Who
Thought
She was resigned to
Losing HERSELF
For a man
I am the heroine that’s unsung story
will
be told
I am
A woman
who’s life is about to unfold
and
I
will narrate my
own
story
