I have not retaliated.
I have disobeyed.
I have not been marked,
But I have been played.

I am a smart-a**,
But I am not lacking.
I am intelligent,
This makes me charming.

Oh, am I humorous.
Don’t get me wrong,
And yes I can be a bit much,
But hey, it’s what makes me strong.

Did I mention I am black?
Not too dark, not too light,
But just the right mix of twilight
And yes I am bright.

I am tall, only when I wear my heels.
I am fit, well not really…
It’s all ok though,
It’s only special to me.

I am beautiful and wild
Only because I have found me
I know who I am!
That’s me!
