Lessons

Why do you rush, little brown girl? Wasn’t it enough as you witnessed your mother’s dreams hush? Was the suffering of your mother’s ghetto lifestyle not enough to deter you? Why walk yourself into those shoes? Did you perceive that you could rewrite history? Sadly, you are not the first. Why wasn’t witnessing her struggles enough? I guess you too concocted the lie within your own psyche that between your thick thighs abides the keys to your rise. However, baby, I promise that is an empty lie. The “I love you’s” he whispers as he climaxes are used to tickle the lowliness of your self-esteem, then you are discarded and regarded as not being enough.

You deserve more than the empty promises and fleeting moments of validation. Your worth is not defined by the temporary affections of others but by the strength and resilience within you. It’s time to break free from the cycle of seeking approval from those who do not see your true value. Embrace your own journey, and let your dreams soar beyond the limitations imposed by others, as well as yourself. You are more than enough, and your story is still being written.
