"The Run Through"
  by Chocolatezeus


Gave my everything
Pushed it to the limit
Showcased the renassaince man

Attracted to
The strong black woman
A two edge sword
That kills quick

Break down the walls
Of warrior
Simply reveals
A true enemy

Kia
Wendy
Kim
Monica
Kiesha

A checklist of
Who's who
They took the test
Couldn't pass

The strong are the
Weakest at times
Strenght hides
The fears an inadequacies
They want anyone to find

The tigress
Will protect
With everyone's lives

I love the fire
They weild inside
Just like the Darkside
It's a thin line
Between lover and foe

Stood toe to toe
They flexed their warrior mode
I stood amidst their storm
Weathered it all
Still gave my love

They needeed to
Break me down
Make me something that
They could understand and command
An enigma I remained

The battles raged
I fought back against them
Fighting for

Love
Children
Marriage
A future

The things that
They weren't ready for
Wasn't understood

Resistance was futile
So I ceased battling
Only then did I win
Got all that
I ever wanted

They envy me
Hate me for
Opening their
Hearts and souls
Making them

Think
Feel
Live

But what they hate the most is

My love
My happiness
My blessings

For they couldn't
Turn me
Break or destroy me

And now after them
I am the happiest
Blessed

WOW... you said so much right here. They tried to break, change, and hinder you... but to me, they simply assisted in making you a "better you"... an enigma remained.
