Strong Black Woman

I finish school, worked and been through love.
these are the days of  strong black woman.
I been hurt many times.
I did wrong.
I picked myself up now the pain is gone.
these are the days of a strong black woman.
I said mean things to my mom.
I remember how she put me on this earth all the time.
these are the days of a strong black woman.
I cried and been through many bad choices.
I no them things was wrong but im strong.
Im a strong black woman.

A powerful piece of self-examination... to come out of bad experiences and know your own worth... yeah, I'd say you are strong! Best wishes, Keith

This is another write like Y'all Gonna Love Me that rings like a song, Michelle! I really like the way you repeat the title within the poem. Glad you are here at PoetrySoup!!
