A collection of poetry from the young mind of a black, teenaged girl that experiences hardships and witnesses struggle on a day-to-day basis. 

There will be use of AAVE (African-American Vernacular English). Before you say anything about how it isn't "proper English," learn the background behind it. AAVE has grammatical rules just like any dialect. The most common example of AAVE is zero copula or copula deletion, which refers to the absence of an auxiliary verb. It occurs frequently in standard English as well. Another example of AAVE you will witness is the dropping of the last letter of a word. Words like "singing" become "singin'" and words like "respect" become "respeck."

REMINDER: I am recounting my emotions and thoughts. There are somethings that you may not agree with or experience, but you DO NOT attempt to silence me. DO NOT try to belittle my problems as if they are something so trivial.
