I Am A Queen…

This is a poem that I wrote for someone, who requested a poem to give her hope after a heartbreaking end to her relationship. It is a poem to empower those who feel that it is the end after a bad breakup, yes it is hard but each person has the strength to rise up and become that person they were before that traumatic incident. Stay hopefully and positive for what the future has to offer.

When you left me I felt as though life had left me,
My heartbeat stopped,
While tears rolled from my eyes continuously creating a stream,
A river that ran so deep it felt as though I was drowning,
Every night I scream hoping that this is all a dream,
That the world can never be this cruel,
Surely my heart deserves a break,
Heartbreak after heartbreak I sit there wishing,
Praying that one day my true love will come,
Thinking yes the next guy is the one,
Then life slaps me,
Reality kicks me and I realise he is just another one,
Another one that has deceived me,
He has come to cheat on me and break me,
When will my love come?
Will I ever find true love?

As I sit down letting go of my last breath of hope,
A voice filling me responds,
Bursting through my soul,
It purges me with sheer hope,
Your true love is coming hold on,
Stay strong and never let go,
So I sit up and rise with determination,
Dusting off life’s revolting hoax,
I speak words creating a new foundational dream,
I am royalty not a princess but a Queen,
A Queen who’s crown shines brighter in the dark,
So stand back as I rise on my pulpit,
Ready to devour any man’s deceiving charm,

I am not just an ordinary Queen,
I am mighty above all,
Ready to never let go of the power I uphold,
As the state of liberty holds up her destiny,
I hold up life’s history letting it blow into the wind,
Till its visible no more,
Pain is something I will never let win,
Faith is slowly beginning to sink in,
I am precious over everything,
My anthem I will sing,
I am a Queen ready to overcome anything.
