Be in love 8/30





he aint neva washed a dish in his life
and he is not
about to start
now

love
be understanding differences
communicating
pains and desires
moving past your issues
with daddy
with men
your brother
your mother
the church

your grandmother
never would have talked back
Love

be
seeing you
exactly for who you are
love

be watching you give yourself away
be hiding from your bad choices
be waiting for you to love yourself

so you can finally
be in
love

be already knowing you got issues
be seeing the bigger picture
be waiting to talk it out
even if it take 3 days
25 emails
102 text
and a phone call
from your mama


to be in love
is transparent
pure
but not simple   
easy
but so complex

to be in love
is continuous  
it is work
it is forever

but it is always worth it

Election day. 2020 Brain dump  We won't even know the winner today. We have at least a week for that. I will focus on staying black. You see that is the thing, no matter who wins, I will still be a child of an enslaved African. A child of American Slavery. No matter who wins that fact will be ignored, the proven damage that this has caused will be ignored.

I think both Red and Blue are racist, sexist, classist, and anti-black.  Both Red and Blue will deny White Supremacy, will deny the hate and fear of black skin so fuck'em both. I just had to get this off my chest you know and No!! I am not a

I'm better left alone

I’m a better person when I am alone. I think I underestimated how influenced by others I have been, like my whole like. I remember a report card from my child hood.

I am not sure when I noticed that it was a problem, but I know I did. That is the point I made sure that everything I did was because I wanted to do it. Through the years I may have done a few things I didn’t want to do, I either had no choice, no awareness or was possibly forced. Social media was bringing all of that back. I was able to influence by so many people and so many things and situations. I think I was to confused, I wasn’t brave, I was shame to have a different opinion or no opinion at all. I am a better person when I am alone, left to create my own reality. Left to create my own expectations, based of desires that I have from within
