She Said… Poem by Frederick Kambemba Yamusangie

She said I should be patient
I would succeed in what I like doing
And I am saying
I am already starting to flourish
I am starting to rise from
A mental oppression invisible but real
To excel and date my dreams…

She said that I should be patient
I would succeed in what I like doing
And I am saying
I am already starting to flourish
I am starting to rise from
A mental warfare every single day
To stopped me creating my own reality

She said that I should be patient
I would succeed in what I like doing
And I am saying
I am already starting to flourish
I am starting to rise from death to life
Now I can say I am living…I am alive…
I am proud of saying it a loud

She said that I should be patient
I would succeed in what I like doing
I must admit I did not believe her
Although she is the one who gave birth to me
I could not see what she was able to see
But now I can see it with
My very eyes
