My Voice 

Power!
The main thing a black woman needs 
to last in this world.
As a woman, I see myself as the
president one day, the queen, or even the pope.
Thats not a desire or thought going
through the brains of many, for we 
women lack power.
Considerably the best weakest link in 
society.
Easily manipulated by the 
advertisement of beauty.
Pleasing him without thinking of the
morality.
Fixedly proportionally let down by the 
majority.
Constant struggle to feed the young
one.
Cries of hunger and struggles to 
leave the old house.
A fixed choice being made only
because of that one love.

When I am powerless, I am beaten.
My heart is ripped and mind
defeated.
living in poverty was not a choice.
I live with this burden because of
doubt.
Doubt that I couldn't make a
difference,
Be the one changing the bitter.

But my son, my only son
I live for him with strength and love
bending back and knees to reach
that goal.
Even if it be, harassed by that fixed
sexual look.

A feminist, not too much.
But I'll do whatever it takes, to be
that good mom.
The power is gained by seeing him 
strive.
Knowing that I did the best that I could. 

                                                                                     - Adena Morris

Venom's Alliance: Loyalty's Fracture by LunarisAryson
32 parts Complete Mature
Kalia's POV : Freedom ain't real. It's just a pretty lie people tell themselves to sleep better at night. Me? I've never been free. Not when I was born into a life where people used me like a tool. Not when I thought I escaped, only to get dragged back in. And sure as hell not now, trapped in a marriage I never wanted with a man who loves me like an addiction-obsessive, toxic, suffocating. Easton swears I belong to him. Calls me his, like I'm a possession, not a person. But I was never meant to be owned. Not by him. Not by anyone. And yet... I'm craving the one person I can't have. The one man I shouldn't want. Jay Kim. My husband's best friend. The only person who looks at me like I'm more than a pawn in someone else's game. The only man who's ever made me feel safe. But love in this world? It don't come without consequences. And choosing Jay? That'd be the kind of mistake that gets people killed. Jay's POV: I never wanted this empire. It was my uncle's before me-a kingdom built on blood, corruption, and greed. But when he fell, I had two choices: take control or let worse men have it. So I took it. And now? I'm doing what he never could. I'm fixing the mess he left behind. Cleaning up the dirt while keeping the wolves from tearing it apart. But then she came back. Kalia Gomez. The only woman who's ever made me want something outside of this life. The one I can't have-because she belongs to someone else. Not just anyone, either. Easton. My friend. My brother in arms. I should walk away. Should forget about the way she looks at me when no one's watching. Should ignore the way my pulse fucking riots every time she's close. But it's too late for that. Because I might be trying to clean up this empire... But for Kalia? I'd burn it all down.
Second No More, a novel by imaginationgirl35
33 parts Complete Mature
I've dreamed of the perfect marriage ever since I was a little girl: a marriage complete with a hardworking husband while I tended to the home and our children, preferably four little rugrats to call my own. I dreamed of a life filled with laughter, joy, and success, a life we built together. I dreamed of growing old next to my husband, creating a great love story to tell our grandchildren someday. It all seemed so possible. I was raised to be the perfect wife, after all. From the outside, it seemed I had exactly what I dreamed of with the rich, determined husband; the brilliant, gaudy diamond ring; and the beautiful home filled with the hope of future children. Yes, it was all a dream come true. I should have felt grateful, really. The problem is, I also wanted a marriage based on love, passion, and affection, but those are the only things my husband cannot give me . . . . . . because they're reserved for her.

Everything in my life was pure frustration. I was not my parents' favorite. It started when I was a kid. They neglected me, and used me like a recycled trash, needed when necessary. I was not in good terms with my siblings. They could not understand the man I am. My friends ditched me a long time ago. I did not graduate High School with the highest average. My parents blamed me a lot about it and I had been a major disappointment, as the heir to their company, though I achieved the highest marks in college. I did not inherit my father's company. I was weak, they said. My brother was better than me. As if I haven't heard that before. As if it wasn't true. It was my prodigal brother, Aden Henry. It's always been him, and my sister, Alissa Marie. Aden inherited the company. Alissa became a renowned psychiatric expert with her own mental institution with one thousand patients a year. I just became a mere fashion designer, drowned in my misery with my son, Aaron Charles. My wife cheated on me. She was a predator and I was the prey. My heart turned into stone a long time ago. Even my son was not an exception. But how would I survive? I can't function properly anymore. I only needed my wife to act like a normal person, but she's gone. But now, she wants me back. What should I do? No one would dare to know the real Alvin Schemer. They've only seen the front. They never tried to go deep. But I will not trust anymore. I don't know if she was worth it. I don't know if anyone is worth it, when in the end, it's me and my tears that I hate again.

They have the power to lead inspire and bring about positive change. They have the power to fight for justice and equality and to advocate for the rights of the marginalized and oppressed. The power of women lies in their ability to connect deeply with others to listen and to understand. They possess a unique intuition and emotional intelligence that allows them to navigate complex situations and find creative solutions. Their compassion and empathy enable them to build strong relationships and support each other through life's challenges. Women also have the power to shape the future. As mothers daughters sisters and friends they pass down values knowledge and wisdom to the next generation. They have the power to shape the minds and hearts of those around them instilling in them the values of love kindness and equality. The power of women is not to be underestimated or diminished. It is a force that has been driving progress and change throughout history. From leading social movements to breaking glass ceilings in male-dominated industries women have been at the forefront of countless achievements and milestones. As we recognize and harness the power of women we move closer to a world where gender equality is fully realized. It is a world where the strengths and perspectives of both men and women are valued and respected and where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. So let us celebrate and honor the power of women and work together to build a more inclusive and equitable world for all." - The power of women

You can read the uncut version of this book over on https://archiveofourown.org/works/61769338 Life could be so unfair, everyone adored my big sister Ava, yes everyone. Ava was the most popular girl in school, she was outgoing, beautiful, and shone like a radiant star. Our parents told her she could easily be a model or anything she wanted really, and Ava with all the confidence of a film star strode through life dazzling all in her wake. She had thousands of followers on her Instagram, Whatsapp, and Tic Toc, and what did I have. Well I had a creative streak and an introverted nature, and I lived in Ava's shadow. The only reason it seemed anyone spoke to me was to get my big sister's attention. I felt like a butler or a handmaiden to a Queen. It was like I never had my own identity. No one saw me at all, until that one day someone did, and I remember it like yesterday. Did I make a good decision probably not, would I do it again, I am unsure. But just once someone noticed me, yes me, and it felt so good. It was good at first, but by the time I had realized the good would never last, the jaws of the trap were closed. I was far away and at his mercy, and yet another stood by me, one who could rescue me from my mistakes.
