I Am By T. Alisha Rogers
I
Am
I am who you see
Undone up
I
Am
The woman meant to be
I
Am
Imperfect, flawed
I
Am
Perfectly me
I
Am
The same
When we lay
I
Am
The same
When we greet
The new DAY
I
Am
I am who you see
Undone up
I
Am
The woman meant to be
I
Am
Imperfect, flawed
I
Am
Perfectly me
I
Am
The same
When we lay
I
Am
The same
When we greet
The new DAY
I know what I am not,
I don't necessarily fit the program
The mold
The trend
The fashion
I don't ever follow the crowd
The norm
The standard
The what's now
I am a Woman
Of mind
I Love me for ME.
Naked and true,
I love me for ME.
Not for the opinion of you.
I love me for me
For love I bestow
For friendship I know
I love me for Me
For how much I have grown
I love me for me
Intently,
Stare at the rarity of the jewel.
Gaze through the surface
To the depth of its purity,
Clarity,
Perfection of itself.
Examine the color,
The consistency,
The gentle gradients,
So very subtle but ever present.
Light transmitted,
Translucent,
Prismatic,
Radiates from the jewel unlike any other.
Bask in the uniqueness,
The jewel knows not what it is...
This day began some time ago
When a decision between two
Brought together two minds
Just so
They thought consciously
Decidedly,
Selflessly,
To give
Unconditionally
Each other's love
As it is written to be,
Never given lightly.
The bond being forged
Must be strong
Entwined deeply
Within God's laws
This union will be everlasting
Through eternity,
Forever long
It is:
When I became us
When me became we
When mine became ours
The foundation of family.
In the fruition of love's seed,
Two families are now one
Loves blessings bind you together,
Let love's journey continue
Never to be undone
