a poem i wrote

thighs touch

girl it's cool if your thighs touch
just don't let your chin and your chest do it
i say this cause i know how it feels
i been through it
self esteem is a four letter word it seems
the only thing between you and your dreams
between who you are and who you could be
between what you've done and what you could achieve
so hold your head high miss thing
you're a solider
walk into that boardroom and own em
stand up to that microphone and dominate it
what is life but an opportunity for greatness
so i tell you now: when you get on stage just
take a deep breath and feel those thighs touch
they belong to the legs that will hold you up
attached to the feet that take you where you're bound
if you don't let them, can't NOBODY hold you down.
