My Apologies

To my Queens, I'm sorry

I'm sorry for the disrespect you've had to go endure

People have called you names not found on your birth certificate 

Given you names while being misinformed of who you really are

I'm sorry

For not being able to defend each of you at every drop of disrespect 

For not being able to change people's minds about you when they judged you and made decisions based on hearsay and not the truth

My apologies, especially to my black queens due to the actions of my species

Men ran into villages and took everything from you

They raped you and made you live with the shames and consequences that came with the brutality 

They forced you to be slaves mentally and physically and then took away husbands from your love and acceptance 

Enslaved the children that they cut from your womb and you had no say in anything

I'm sorry, 

For the fact that you don't feel accepted 

You were once royalty beside the king of your dreams

You were downgraded to a being with no rights and look at as property 

And now, now you feel you have to show skin to be what's in

No longer showing what's within cause you don't believe it's valuable 

But showing what's on the outside because it's trending

I'm sorry. For your way of thinking is not what you have chosen but what's been forced upon you

And for that I hope you accept my apologies.
