Has a woman ever knocked your crown, In the name of ambition, pushed you down?⠀ Because power breeds abuse, and abuse kills hope.⠀ On bad days we mope, on good days we cope. But your crown is held by a younger you,⠀ A fool who won't be told what she can't do.⠀ She's simple to find, but hard to reach,⠀ Within your mind, but she won't preach⠀ To you or at you or tell you what to do⠀ Because she loves you. When will you too? Within is abundance, competing's not needed⠀ You'll thrive once your belief in her's seeded. ⠀ Crown her your queen and she'll lay out a scene,⠀ With you as the heroine of your dream. -Samirah Shri

About MeMy name is Samirah Shri. I write poetry especially for "bad" Asian daughters, but also for anyone who feels rejected within their communities. My poems guide you along my personal journey of rejection, healing, and ultimately re-connection. |
