Analysis of I AM A QUEEN



Life becomes hard.
Bills needs to get paid such as lights to car.
Money is tight.
My family, my job, and my man is not acting right.
Hair is matted, bumps are popping, eyebrows and nails
are falling apart.
I pray everyday and seems like no answer from God.
But, as I lift my head, wipe my tears, fix my crown.
I have to remind myself that I am a Queen.

I wrote this poem because as a woman who goes through judgments and pressure of the world. Often, I have to remind myself who I am.
