I am a Goddess,

My husband constantly told me I was nothing and that no other man wanted me with his two kids.

I believed him and allowed him to kick and beat me in fear for my life and petrified that i wouldn't have a place for me and my babies to live.

Then one day, i looked in the mirror in horror, as i saw my bloody distorted face.
He said, "i'm sorry baby, I ain't mean it" but i knew his apology was fake as i felt my heart race

I said to myself what am i gonna do?
If i stay, he will truly kill me,
If i leave he will hunt me down
But i kow my life will be a living hell if i don't somehow turn this nightmare around.

I am a goddess, I am a Queen, I am a strong powerful women, who can do all things.

I prayed to god, please give me the courage and the strength to turn my life around your way, because i know i can't continue to subject myself and my babies to this mental and physical roller coaster ride, another single day.

I need some stability, something concrete, something sound and if something doesn't give real soon I won't have to ask again, 'cause i'll be 6 feet in the ground.

God said, women don't you know you are a Goddess and a Queen and no one could ever take your crown.  Now tap into that godliness inside your self and watch your blessing flow abound.

I am a goddess, i am a queen, I am a strong powerful women who can do all things

See I get it now, i know what your problem is
your intimidated by the powers i possess
which causes you to have control issues, insecurities, and a low self esteem about your miserable little self.

But one mans trash, is another man's treasure, you should have done your homework you see. Now another man will experience all I have to offer, because now i'm free, i'm free, honey i'm free.

You constantly told me I was nothing
but for real, for real, you knew i was a goddess and a queen
and if you didn't know who I was, you know now Boo, I'm a strong, powerful woman who has the capabilities to do all things.

Oh as a matter of fact, if you put your hands on me again,
I ain't gonna call the cops,
I'mma call this new man that I got, that hits all my spots.

Uh huh, 'cause he told me if you ever put your hands on me again, he was gonna whoop your sorry--- from the beggining of the earth to the end.

No one should ever get beat. Never believe you are nothing nobody wants you. Wrong .Women are wanted by good men who will treat them with the love and repect they deserve. Right on line good write.

Reminded me of days of old. In fact, it inspired me to write again....I've been dry for a while. I'll let you know when my reply poem comes. I don't mind that you found God,- as long as you found the Goddess,-Elke

With the exception of the spelling the message is powerful.abuse in any form is no joke. Just to show you how one can be put down by one man and brought up by another shows women that they too can move forward.

Powerful, I can't believe I never knew you had talent

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
