Mahogany Warrior

Mahogany Warrior

by Tamika Nicole Smith

Mahogany warrior, don’t you drop your spear on the ground, don’t you drop your shield on the ground, don’t you take your armour off.
I know your tired honey, it’s a tough world out there.
Criticism, labels, bullshit, racism, injustice, trauma, emotional, mental and physical abuse.

But you are stronger then that, you are better then that. All that weight weighing down on your
broad shoulders, it’s okay to let go sometimes baby. It’s okay to show emotion, it’s okay to shed
tears.

IT’S OKAY. Rest your heavy head on mine, and inhale or that stress of this world… And exhale
and release all that hurt you have inside and let that hurt flow from your big brown eyes.

We got you Mahogany Warrior.
