Believe
God is for me not against (me).
Nobody can harm me.
I will not stress myself out and go gray prematurely.
I will try to stay rested and get some sleep at night.
I can have peace of mind.
The peace of mind I seek words cannot describe the stress I’m under.
Satan is my enemy.
I won’t put my Faith in people but I will put my Faith and my Trust in GOD.
God sees.
God knows.
Nigger a name I can say I’ve been called a few times in my life but I know my name is not nigger it’s Ayesha.
And I know my identity too.

- Comment from author about the poem: This poem is about me and getting to a point where I can say I like myself. I am in my early 30s and I am successful and a black/African American woman who has had issues and hurts and straight up problems that seemed to be from not having good friends or anyone who understood me or people I feel comfortable enough to trust. I've been lonely a lot and I went to college for 4 years but look back at my childhood, tweens, teens and even twenties and how I battled the worst automatic negative thoughts imaginable.
