Dear Black Men, (A Letter From A Black Woman) Poem by Harbihorlar Eunice

What do you think when you see us black women
How do you feel when we love you without fault
You got to understand that not all of us are
super pretty,
Some of us are not perfect bodied or shallow
minded to demand expensive things...
Most of us just don't worship our looks
You said we are sassy and too masculine
Its not our fault, we were raised to hustle like you
Please stop asking us to fake us,
You want a dove heart, please be a dove heart
Allow us to be your helpmate, not just your
playmate
LET us be your soulmate, not just your sexmate.
GOD created us black women to push you to
purpose
WE WERE designed to help you be the men God
calls you to be
You dont know how it feels when you constantly
depend on us, lean on us, take from us buh wont
love, marry and honor us
You keep telling us that we are full of dramas
Keep telling the world why you prefer white
women
Said because they are easier and nicer
But what you don't know is that, 'loving you isn't
any easier'
You keep coming back to us when you are
damaged
ANd when you are safe on your feet,
You leave us again
You never look back to see how vulnerable we
are,
How we are not always that strong
But we thrive to stay strong for you
We desired your friendship above all else
Even in marriage, we still crave for your
attentions
Why would you be hateful and unfaithful to your black angels
Loving us doesn't make you less a man
We need you to man up, we need you to be our
men
Stop chasing after candy eye and sexually
uncovering sisters with your lack of self control
Stop needing to feel like a big man at the
expense of your marriages and families
You need to love us black women as we are
Because you are the one that can love us
better...
