POEM: "In possession of my Self"

1/9/2016

I'm no longer tongue tied or starry eyed
I speak my truth as I see it
I can see through the bull shit
because I'm in possession of my "self"

I'm no longer begging for crumbs from any man's table
I've a banquet of my own to attend
with guests by invitation only
because I'm in possession of my "self"

I'm no longer following the commercials
I'm creating my own fashion
Wowing the crowd with my own trends
because I'm in possession of my "self"

I no longer put up with manipulators
I call the shots as to how I'm treated
like a queen or goddess no less
because I'm in possession of my "self"

I no longer reject my body
I look in the mirror and see natural beauty
My phones ringing, my skypes ringing
My social life under control and loving my true friends
because I'm in possession of my "self"

I no longer follow the rules made up by others
I can be dangerous to the status quo
I'm willing to ruffle feathers to own my own kingdom
because I'm in possession of my "self"

I no longer need your approval
I know who I am
A care giver, a healer, a preacher and a control bitch
because I'm in possession of my "self"

But don't get me wrong
I may easily be annoyed
I may be bold and critical
I may be shockingly rude
but my heart can fit the whole Universe
because I'm in possession of my"self"
