Dear World.
by Angie JenkinsIt’s comforting to know that
Despite my lack of finger pointing
At those that held me back
I can still yell and scream and
Punch my defiant fist in the air;
For once, I did not sit and
Settle and
Accept what life gave me;
I pushed, despite your adversity and
Your constant insistence that I should
take what you gave me
And never look back
Or ahead to any other chances
I could have at happiness.
So, world, I can say with a confident smile and gracious
Wave of my hand....
Fuck you.
I got what I wanted.
