Falling in love

Falling In Love

I find myself at the ripening age of 18 on a path to self discovery.

And I have found that I am falling in love.

From my heart I felt an ease and calm that would soothe the storm of my soul. I wish I could share my feelings with the world but I can't, everyone must find this path on their own.

I look and I see these dark figures and their shapely stature and uncover the layers of myself. I feel success and beauty in My dark skin, My big lips, My nappy hair and

My curvaceous body.

I feel pride on My path to self discovery. Pride in descending from slaves. My heart swells with emotions only a person alike myself can understand and feel.And I have found that

I am falling in love.

I am in love with My dark skin that was said to be too dark, and in love with My dark eyes that were said to be as black as space, and in love with My big nose that was said to take up too much of My face.

I have found that I have fallen in love with a Black Woman and that women is ME.
