What Matters Is How You See Me Poem by Khethiwe Ramathuthu

I am beauty in your eyes.

I am queen, I am mother and I am provider.

There is nothing that I do not know, there is nothing I cannot do because in your eyes I am flawless.

In your eyes there has never been anyone like me, I am a goddess.

You love me with a love filled with faith and belief, it is hard not to want to live up to it because what matters is how you see me.

With your beautiful, gentle soul, you receive me and you accept me, you celebrate me but you never choose me.

In your eyes I am not guilty of sin, I cannot do any harm, I am as perfect as a sumer's day.

It is the reason why I wake it is the reason why I am blessed because of how you see me.

Because what matters most is how you see me
