I am Beautiful, I am Black, I am Queen

I am black and beautiful

I'm clothed and dressed in royalty.

Queen is my name,

I am the representation of history.

I am cocoa butter, mocha, caramel, honey, chocolate

and come in a variety of hues.

I am fierce, brave, strong, educated

and beauty is indeed my name.

I am a wife, mother,

entrepreneur, educator, friend, help mate,

sister, teacher, writer, poet and doctor.

You see I wear many hats,

everywhere my feet decide to walk

I will follow!

I will move to the beat that I hear,

I will dance to the music I play,

I will soar like an eagle way up in the sky.

I will rock my curls,

wear my tresses,

model my fro,

caress my locs,

wear my twists,

flaunt my weave with pride.

I will rock my stilettos

and strut the essence that is me.

Because I’m a Queen

a beautiful, successful,

you go girl, you motivate the world girl, Queen!

I am will be forever proud of my heritage,

proud of the way that I talk,

proud of the way that I walk,

the way that I dress

and the essence that is me.

The way that I carry myself

with dignity and respect.

I will not hide what I possess on the inside.

I know that beyond a doubt

that I am and will always be

a talented, gifted, beautiful

successful black Queen.

I am Beautiful, I am Black, I am Queen.
