Izaiah Roberson Poems

Someday I'll learn to value me
for every little thing I do

Someday I'll feel like I'm enough
...

If you were an artist
how would you paint me?
With deep solid strokes
or you brush sweeping softly?
...

please don't touch me
she said looking at the floor
because while it may seem like no big deal to you
to her, your hands feel like bugs crawling beneath her skin
...

She takes the stand
With the voice of millions on her back
And speaks the fact that we all know,
far too well to be true -
...

Bullying!

The #MeToo Movement against sexual harassment.
...

To the girl who lies awake
Who cannot remember a time
She wasn't crying
She wasn't aching
...
