THE CONVERSATION

by AliaShardae

SHE knows who I am and knows my capabilities

SHE understands my potential and all that I aspire to be

SHE knows the greatness in me

SHE knows my deepest thoughts and has heard my loudest cry,

And unto her I could never lie

SHE demands that confidence emerge from ME,

SHE challenges me to face my deepest insecurities

SHE allows me to see the evils of this world and also

How things used to be

SHE tells me that in a past lifetime I was a very intelligent, powerful Nubian Queen

SHE shows me how Europeans have destroyed this world

And exploited my people over countless decades

But, SHE also ensures me that SHE makes no Mistakes!

“But why?” I ask, “Why have my people suffered so long? Did we, as a people, do something wrong?”

“NO” SHE answered “but you are living in a world predicted by my prophets’ songs.”

SHE said, “It is time for a REVOLUTION and I choose YOU!”

I replied, “There is no need for further explanation, I know what I have to do.”

“And what is that?”

“I must go tell them the knowledge of YOU!”

“Yes, tell them that I am YOU and YOU are ME”

“I will tell them that the GREATNESS of YOU, GOD, lives within ME!”
