BITTER TOO: (BITTER 2)


Shakela James - 2017
    Long before I was a baby mama, I was a woman in a so-called man’s-world. My bitterness started long before I gave birth. The odds were against me since the day I was born and falling in love only made it worse. Sometimes as women, we wear our strength so well that we forget to take it off at night. We fall asleep with the weight of the world on our backs and wake up feeling the marks that are left on our souls. Still, we get up each day to face a world that doesn't love or respect us. Sometimes, we give our all knowing that we’ll receive nothing in return. I think that's enough to make anyone bitter. I sacrificed my life, my body, my sanity, and my heart only to be disrespected, mistreated, and overlooked. If you walked a mile in my shoes, you'd probably be bitter too.
