sacred secrets of self

every
one of my
children should look
like
me.

they will come
to me
first & giggle
when i
smile.

they will love
me most &
do what i
say.

my parents &
teachers never
understood my
perfection.

with so much
jealousy, they
tried to change
me.

i really know what’s
right & God knows i’m
good.

the world would
be a better place with
people just like
me.

i work too
hard &
deserve much
more than i
get.

when the
end comes
& i go to
heaven

i will still be
holding on
to my own
name.

i aim to
remain exactly
who i
am for
ever &
ever.
