I've been in this deep egotistical slumberRolling over only to slap my convicting alarmPulling my covers overTo hide the chill of pestering oppressed realities."Dam, it hurts to sit up and face the complexities of womanhood,To slip on your walking shoes, and brace the task of an uncertain dayBut its time to get upUntangle these pity covers,Pull back my blinds,And leave that compelling desire to quit beneath my floorboardsTime to wash the crust from my cornered eyes ,And provision my self for a new vision.One that allows me to forsee bended knees, and supllicated whispers."Lord, i give u ownership over all that troubles me"Starting from afflicting brokenness from trouble relationships.May my faith mend me andOnlyBend me into submissionSo that i can sit still in order to be whole again.Lord i turn over my womanly toxicities ,I desire a new identity as a woman, tailored down in jewel characteristics.Fashioned down in self respectTime to embody worth,Crown my mentality so that i can exude prudenency in all that i encounter as a woman .I desire to no longer succumb to emotional chaos, nor rally in displeasing mannerisms.Time to manifest the woman i inspire to reflect, when i rise to look in the mirror in the morning.Give me the courage to do so,Give me the strength to pressAnd not regress in womanly mournings.Signed by your daughterAmen.
