Life’s a Mystery

I Can’t Breathe Part 2 (Edited) 

Life’s a mystery.
I don’t get how things play out.
If people would’ve took care of themselves.
If the government would’ve handled this.
My aunt would still be here.
Its tragic.
This is not a time to be ecstatic.
But now I feel nostalgic.
Because I want to remember her for all times she was there for me.
She was a big part of our tree.
The one to connect us to her roots, she was truly family.
She never made my games, but I thank her for her love even if she was behind the scenes.
But now I keep her in memory, she’s a part of me.
She always bought me new stuff.
To show her love for me.
A Ballislife jacket.
Red and Black from 2017.
Even as athletes
People forget we’re a part of society.
But all the compliments and love
I felt people connected with me.
I will never get why God makes certain decisions.
She last called me on my birthday, she was smiling and she was grinning.
All she wanted to do was take care of her children.
Meaning us three, me and my sisters, we we’re basically like her children.
She became a nurse, all she wanted to do was see people winning.
She fought for her life in New York, her last inning.
Im so confused, im speechless on why people can’t listen.
Aunt Debbie I love you and im hurting this poem’s finished.

Rip to my aunt. I will continue to spread your unconditional love to the ones around me and representing my culture to the fullest. You and my dad’s hard work is something that is and will forever be installed in me. I’m gonna visit you one day and we’re gonna go shopping again, my treat. God, can you bring my aunt back please? I don’t understand.

Letter 2 LA

You don’t need to know about my situation. Appreciate my art and let every word sink in. To be continued... Your my rock My stone In this life I can’t do it on my own Writing to you back home Since I can’t be there... We fought, we argued, I left I wasn’t at my best My heart beating out my chest But what’s next? You humbled me You’ve protected me You’ve made me your safe space when you was feeling empty I need your love all over me I’m coming one day Just a flight away  Keep supporting  Dont ignore it I know how you feel I’m keeping it real And this is my letter to you xoxoxo

Crawling

I just spend my days waiting for them to end. I’m confused. I’m lonely. It feels like everything is crashing at this point. Crawling in my skin I would say. I’ve seen better days, but has it seen me? Im lost and fed up, but does god see the beauty in me? I hope so. Every hour is a new thought. Every day is a new battle. Some days it’s hot. Some days it’s cold. But on my soul, I promise I won’t fold. When life beats you up, you take those hits and keep moving. Because nobody is holding you back, but yourself. #POWEREDBYREESE  💔

REAL (LIFE)

  REAL What’s real to me? In this life I strive and I prosper. What’s real to me? I go from eating noodles to some lobster. What’s real to me? Girlie actin’ funny so I dropped her. What’s real to me? I was down, but today I’m feeling stronger. What’s real to me? The way I’m movin’ now I need an oscar. What’s real to you? Please take my hand, I really need you. I’d kill for you, blind the lights show me what’s good with you. What’s real to you? Tryna’ show the man that was built for you. I’d die for you, please break my heart but I won’t lie to you. I’m tryna’ show you how I feel and be the better man. I can’t sin upon my life but you wouldn’t understand. I was cold, feeling bold, taking drugs within Thinking you was mines but the devil got the upper hand. I thought you was real, but you played me on fair weather. This the 10th time I thought that I’d know better. What’s real to me is knowin’ you were always there, but you flipped on me and your intentions were just anywhere. I felt...
