Take me as I am ….complicated as it may be…
See the inner beauty....recognize the Queen in me….
Though there is no throne…the crown still fits….
Rather I wear it or not…on my dome it sits
I know who I am…no fashion can tell me….
In fact it compels me…not to conform…
Instead I choose to form….my own believes…
No bells and whistles are necessary for me….
I’m still royalty…rather heels or flats
Permed…locked….or naps…..
I be ...who I ...be….A Queen…
So take me as I am…complicated as it may be

@T-You're right I'm not a complicated person at all, but seems that it's complicated for some to appreciate that fact! Sometimes you just can't win for losing!
Hey Keisha -
Loved the piece - I feel ya on every word - take me as I am - this is it!
@Ticia-I think the more we grow to love ourselves and accept us for us knowing that God makes no mistakes...the easier it will become from others to love us as we are...and if they don't we won't settle! Feel me?

"Though there is no throne…the crown still fits….
Rather I wear it or not…on my dome it sits"

@Miss Mika-Thank you Sistah! I don't really hit the spoken word scene to much anymore...I use my gift to glorify the Creator...so I'm often called to do church events, weddings, funerals, birthdays, youth retreats, etc....I have 1 cd I call the Master's Plan you can hear some on my songs on my myspace page and my minstries' website.
