Dear Black Woman

Dear black woman,

I envy your strength
I salute your courage
I honor your selflessness
I commend your confidence
I admire your boldness

Every shade has a story
Every scar rises in honor
Glorifying your pigmentation
And not your curves or kinky hairstyles
A woman of class and elegance
Intimidated by your aesthetic value
And despite of all your setbacks
You always find a way to fight back
A natural warrior
Who’s worth should never be measured by the pain she endure
