    WITHIN ME

     

    There is a little girl that lies within me,

    One that is innocent and strives to be

    The perfect creature from a woman's womb

    Searching blue skies for dreams I assume

    Were meant for me designed by the Almighty

    Pounding in my heart, as I search desperately

    This is the little girl that lies within me

     

    There is a desire for vanity that lies within me,

    The need to be noticed and bring about jealousy

    Causing women to gossip but secretly envy

    Occupying a man's thoughts as he imagine me

    Leaving memorable impressions of endless beauty

    This is the desire for vanity that lies within me

     

    There is a painful struggle that lies within me

    Frustrated with life and sickened by poverty

    Tired of not having and going without

    Searching my purpose and trying to figure out

    How to maintain strength and stay persistent

    It's difficult to do when funds are non-existent

    Praying and hoping that GOD will smile upon me

    This is the pain and struggle that lies within me

     

    There is a want for admiration that lies within me

    For my daughter to love and brag about her mommy

    For my mother to smile and say "Look at my Baby"

    To be a role model and make a difference to many

    when my last breath is gone people will remember me

    As the great daughter and mother that gave graciously

    This is the want for admiration that lies within me

     

    There is a longing for true love that lies within me

    For a man to take my hand , love ,and cherish me

    To look in his eyes and feel the intensity

    Of a connection so strong his mental caresses me

    To be held in his arms and kissed gently

    Laughing and enjoying life exclusively

    This is the longing for true love that lies within me……..

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
