I am
By Alexis

I am who I am

Black is only a small component
of complex machinery that makes me.

I am

A woman, a poet,
a wannabe mother of three

I am

A sister, a daughter, a friend
a student, a teacher

I am

I am

A beautiful woman chasing
a dream

I am

Educated, intelligent,
A dreamer who believes in her
Dreams.

I am

I am

I am

An anime freak, a rock baby,
a curvaceous diva

A woman of all cultures

I am Black and proud, White and proud,
Mixed and proud, Asian and proud, Indian
and proud, Latina and proud.

I am
A wild woman of the earth
who loves to wear her hair naturally,
in all it's dark nappy glory

I am

A woman whose whose love of men
is not limited to one kind.
A woman who loves all.

I am Alexis Henry
