Boy Bye!

Posted on 01/08/202101/11/2021 by Don't Forget the Half

She’s always been denied, outcast

By foolish boys who mete out hate

Their whispering condemned her weight

But here she stood in stark contrast

All heads now turn when she walks past

Her mesmerizing grace and style

They complement her winsome smile

She’s confident, her head held high

As silly boys clamor out “HI”

She turns and nicely says “Boy bye!”

You know, writing about myself has always been a challenge. It's not that I'm unsure of who I am but rather I like people to discover me on their own. I will tell you this much - I'M REAL! I guess that's all you need to know for a first approach; stick around and you'll understand the power behind that statement. What I do is another story! I embrace life hoping to live my purpose as a mother, daughter, sister, confidante and friend; I laugh, cry, and support; I admire, like and love; I listen, read and write. Most importantly, I have faith and thank God for all of me. My intent is to inspire others using my gifts and "Don't Forget the Half" reminds me to cast nothing aside. Want to know more? Discover along with me as I live my life out loud. View All Posts
