I wrote this poem when I was in the seventh or 8th grade & I recently found it & wanted to post it on here along with my other poems. So without further or do, here we go.


I am a strong & beautiful African American girl. I wonder if I can make a difference in this world.
I hear Angels calling out to me at night. I see freed slaves flying in the sky all the time.
I want people to see what I see in me.
I am a true beauty.

I am the daughter of the lord. In life, I often feel torn.
I touch clouds that feel softer than cotton. I want to leave my mark on this world & not be forgotten. 
I am strong, but I cry & cry all the time.
I am a true beauty on the inside & outside.

I understand that life is complex. I say to myself, ''Natasha, why don't you just trust that life knows where it's taking you & relax?''
I feel as though I dream the same dreams dreamt by Martin Luther King Jr. I try to pray for the strength to make my dreams into a reality sooner. 
I hope I find the courage to live this life the way I dream to do.
I am a true beauty, just like you.

I Am, by Natasha Moran (ReneeRose🌹🥀🌹)
