My tears fall like rain from the dark sky,
My heart is a hole waiting to be filled with love,
My mind is the wind in the heat,
empty and useful.
My soul is buried treasure waiting to be found,
I dont want to be a black woman anymore.
I am selfish and greedy,
mean and harsh,
I am lonely with pain.
I am heartless, I only feel my hurt.
My life is taken for granted.
I am never satisfied.
I wear fake smiles everywhere
LOOK AT ME!
I am black.
I am a black woman who holds her ground.
I am a black woman who means what she says.
I am a black woman who needs love.
I am a black woman who sheds tears, when my heart cant bare anymore.
LOOK AT ME!
This black woman.
My reflection is ugly,
My size is fat,
I am useless!
Cant I just stop being a black woman...
today?
Well... here I am!
A black woman
Ive made it through all my misery,
looking back I laugh.
This is me. A Strong Black Woman!

'black woman' is a winner. A full poem -- full of all the emotions and all the wonderful words that make poetry the fine art it is. What bravery! What strength! What beauty! --Flint
