Vexed by vocabulary
Words formed in tears
Hurting prominent
Perseverance halted
But I’ve found serenity
Embraced by a good man
Difficult is this chronic entropy
I feel my damages drifting
Laid my debt aside
Don’t need a loan
Don’t need charity
He’s there for me
During the times I cried
Forgot disparity after I
Navigated through poverty
You are my salary of
Abundance and love
Personified forever
