I DIDN'T KNOW I WAS A QUEEN

I didn’t know I was a QUEEN until I was treated as such. I won’t say that my mother dropped the ball on my, but what I will say is this: Parents teach and show your daughters that they are worthy of a KING and should not be settling for anything less. Teach her how to treat a man. Parents teach your sons how a KING should walk, talk and behave. Teach him how to treat a woman. My mother taught me the importance of being independent, of how to take care of myself and to reach for perfection. I thank her for that. I have been through men after men. I have been treated both great and bad. After being touched and loved by a true MAN I now realize that those past relationships were just God’s way of preparing me to get this one right.
I didn’t know I was a QUEEN until he kissed the tip of my crown, until he kissed away my tears. Until her taught me to never fear. I didn’t know I was a QUEEN until I heard him refer to me as one and then turn around and explain why he felt this way about me. I didn’t know I was a QUEEN until he kissed the ground before me and told me that THAT was what he worshipped. Until he made me believe that I could fly I stayed grounded. Until he moved the mountains from my path, I stayed stationary. Until he woke me up from my nightmare I stayed asleep. Until he drew the blueprint of my goals on a sheet of paper, I continued to dream. Until he gave me his heart, I feared love. Until he told me and treated me like his QUEEN, I didn’t know I was a QUEEN.
True love is hard to find. Why? Because we have yet to begin to love ourselves. Tell me you love me all day every day, but it’s for YOU to believe it. We are ALL KINGS and QUEENS, we just have to start acting like such.
