Unnoticed Godsent


How she resembles Aphrodite
when she chortles and curves her lips
does not make you less of a woman
for every tear that flows on your cheek
as you witness a plea of a forlorn child.

How she looks perfect
in unblemished milky white skin
does not make you less of a woman
for the physical and emotional scars you got
from conquering countless catastrophes.

How she looks queenly
in fabulous and luxurious clothing
does not make you less of a woman
for dressing yourself in affinity t-shirts,
solicitude trousers and humility sneakers.

How she sounds cultivated
for remembering every detail she reads
does not make you less of a woman
for every word you speak holding the power
of kindness and compassion.

If you will persist in deeming her
finer than your truth,
I'm afraid you, a one in a million
that somebody finds worthy and deserving
will cast off her assets and strengths
in order to fit in.

Don't, darling.
Stay being a one of a kind blessing
to others
and to the world.
Stay true
to yourself.
