Law

I could speak what's real or I could write about it.
I could speak my mind or die in silence.
Let's be honest I have never been without quote or books by Maya.
I've never been rich or broke my silence.
I possess a fire.
I don't blow smoke but I drink in silence.
I read for knowledge.
My only goal is to be me, therefore,
I stay on target cause I am the object.
An atypical creature,
only concern is to preserve my soul
still typical female in constant thought
of my minimizing my wardrobe.
Black, Gray, and white I'm simple.
Yet colorful and sinful.
I enjoy being descriptive.
My gift is what makes me distinctive.
I'm left to believe I'm the last before extinction.
