For Me To Cave Poem by Tameeka Smith

This is a sad thing to say
But there are people standing around
Waiting for me to cave
Crazy as it may sound it's okay
Because they will be
Waiting forever in a day
The moment something special
Happens in my life
Like a relationship
They can't take a second to congratulate
Yet if I experience heartbreak
They are all in my ear
Being nosey what a disgrace
Trying to see if I'm hurt
There is no frown or tears on this face
They won't see me crumble
When I stumble
I carry it like the
Superbowl performance by Beyonce
Keeping my balance
And dance stepping with grace
I don't care what I go through
Or what comes my way
I'm not a slave
To choices, disappointment or mistakes
Failure is a sign of trying
Therefore I'm doing great
I'm brave
I will behave
In control like Janet
And will not stray
From God's protection
I will have what's destined to be
By God Almighty
So things don't bother me
Not focused too much on what I'm getting
Eventually that's going to happen
Just waiting to see
So in God I am trusting
My faith is like Superman Baby
Man of steel
Ready for what the future reveals
Thankful for all of the eyes on me
Foes, friends and family
Yeah 2Pac
They can continue to stalk
God said that He would
Set a table before my enemies
So I'm ready
My strength will sustain
Negative things will not
Make it go away
Therefore I will not cave
