Black Queen

 Published in Ten2teens Magazine 1st Issue (October-December 2013) on 23-11-2013.


Say Hello to a black Queen who is proud to be who she is.
I’ll tell you why I love being a black woman:


 A black woman is full of beauty.
 A black woman is full of fire.
 A black woman exudes boldness.
A black woman has inner strength.

She isn't afraid to speak her mind.
But she is wiser than what your eyes see.
A black Woman is a fighter.
A black woman is a warrior.
A black woman is powerful.
A black woman is complete.
Yes it is who we are.
 We are all that.

Embrace being a black Woman.
You were made to be great,
You were destined to be influential,

Destiny calls;
Now is the time to manifest our presence
Raise your hands up in the sky And declare:
Now is my time.

Now Go.

Choose Wisely


Published in Ten2Teens 1st Print Magazine on 23-11-2013


It’s not about how many you have. It’s about who will be there,
To hold your hand, to encourage you, to cheer you on.

It’s not about how cool, It’s not about how sweet, It’s not about how kind one may seem.

Look deeper.

Seek for individuals who have integrity.
A person with integrity is classy.
A person with integrity is always genuine.
A person with integrity is always honest.

You are a somebody, therefore set the standard high.
You are not a follower, therefore surround yourself with leaders.
You become like those you spend most times with,
So be deliberate today and choose wisely.

Stay

What a crazy journey we've been on,
What a roller-coaster of a ride
We've been tried and tested
With all the trials and tribulations
Life is more beautiful when we overcome.
We fought for love
We fought for truth
We fought the good fight
And we won.
Hear this joyful sound
It’s a sound of freedom
Can you see these tears?
Those are tears of happiness.
Here you are saying your goodbye..
Like nothing ever happened.
Like nothing ever mattered.
Our story isn't over yet.
Don’t say goodbye yet.
You are here, I am here
So stay.

Come Closer

Published in' looking for lyrics'-The song in my heart  (2009) published by Young Writers

Here I am
I come to you
Draw yourself close to me
I need you, I want you
You are my everything
Visit me tonight as my soul cries out

Come closer to me
Hold me tight
Never let me go
Never let me fall

When I think no one cares
I know that you care
When I feel down,you cheer me up
When I sense trouble, you give me peace
How can I possibly not want you more?

Come closer to me
Hold me tight
Never let me go
Never let me fall

Your light is what I need
Your truth is what I seek

Never let me go
Never let me fall
Come closer now.
