If you have never read this, you should. It may not all apply to you, may not apply to you at all, but I remember being a junior in high school and preforming it. I had never felt a part more deeply, never connected to the written word so absolutely. Here is an excerpt of what I mean:
dark phases if womanhood
of never havin been a girl
half-notes scattered
without rhythm / no tune
distraught laughter fallin
over a black girl's shoulder
it's funny / it's hysterical
the melody-less-ness of her dance
don't tell nobody don't tell a soul
she's dancing on beer cans & shingles...
i can't hear anythin
but maddening screams
& the soft strains of death
& you promised me
you prmised me...
somebody / anybody
sing a black girl's song
bring her out to know herself
to know you
but sing her rhythms
carin / struggle / hard times
singe her song of life
she's been dead for so long
closed in silence so long
she doesn't know the sound
of her own voice
her infinite beauty
she's half-notes scattered
without rhythm / no tune
sing her sighs
sing the song of her possibilities
sing a righteous gospel
let her be born
let her be born
& handled warmly
I strongly recommend this book, when you are hurting, afraid, or confused. Just a thought.

Must Read ~ Seriously Heart wrenching
A Complete Woman
Tracy Johnson has seen better days. She’s suffered her fourth miscarriage, her boyfriend has left her and an unexpected death has called her home. Home isn’t where her heart is, and Tracy hadn’t been home since high school. She got out and she never planned to go back—until now. Soon Tracy finds that death is the least of her worries. As she reunites with her high school friends, Tracy discovers lies, sex, and betrayal have festered in her absence. Through the rollercoaster ride of incidents, Tracy and her friends fight to break free of society’s perceptions of a complete woman. Some will rise and embrace their completeness. Others will crack beneath the pressure—but one thing this is certain—no one—not even Tracy, will ever be the same.
