Skin (excerpt)

Unafraid to be
unapologetically me.

Never leaving my confidence
in the opinion of those
too privileged to relate.

I love what I see when
I look in the mirror.
God given purpose…

For me to believe anything else
would be inferior.

This excerpt is from a poem featured in my up and coming book, Pain Is Not Our Only Paintbrush.
