she

a poem about her soul

--

Created in Canva by Nancy Blackman

she
a young girl once
now an older woman

she
of mixed-race
born into two cultures

she
Beloved
child of God

she
a survivor
became a parent at age five

she
found her way
listening to her heart

she asks
soul, where are you?
and where are we going?

she hears
be you
for you will never go wrong

she knows
hate, racism, and struggle
and she has survived

she also knows
love, grace, and mercy
which has kept her alive
