Young Queen I see you
Smile so big it’s the sunrise
Some lies
You once told yourself
I’m not beautiful
Honey child please
Nickel for my thoughts
If I collected all of our insecurities and sprinkled them like
seedlings in the earth
We’d be able to feed the hungry
Quench the thirst of our masters because they just couldn’t stop coming after us
Your beauty is skin deep
Lifted
You uplift those around you
Anxieties for what?
They jealous
They can’t be us
You’ve found yourself
Hidden between the coconut oils and mango butters
You found the recipe to life
The natural essence
You’re in your element
Learning to love
And be loved
And to love again
