I Am... Poem by Joy O' Pateng

I am a girl
I am an African American girl
I am a broken hearted girl
I am a stud
I am a girl that like a girl
I am a girl with dreams
I am a girl who's in love
I am a girl who has struggled
I am a girl that has dodged death
I am a girl with good intuitions
I am a girl who's tryna do right
I am a girl with a heavy heart
I am a girl that symbolizes G.I Jane
I am just an ordinary girl
I love being a girl.......
