I'm having one of these days
We're everything I do feels wrong
Where I feel wrong
My face
My hair
My body
My colour
Me
I wanted to lie down and die
Eat my French fries alone
In the dark and cry
I was asking me
Why does a girl of 18 look like me
But I saw them in my mind
Beautiful. Strong. Women of colour
Inspirations
Human like me
Insecure like me
Vulnerable like me
Themselves and Outspoken unlike me
I can choose to lie down and die
Or try every single day
Like them
Shout out to my inspirations: Whoopi Goldberg, Jennifer Lewis,Obviously Beyonce, alot of other women I forget to mention. And MOST IMPORTANTLY: My mother, who is the bravest woman I know!
