Letter to Deb

 Hey Auntie, how is it up there?

I bet you’re safe with Ma now.

Everything’s good down here.

Well for the most part.

Sucks not having you here but I’m connecting with you through spirit.

I’ve been pretty annoyed the past few months.

Not having you here in the world.

I miss the unexpected phone calls.

You taking care of me and my siblings.

And you keeping family together.

Dad has been alright though.

I notice certain behaviors but I would be the same way if Tiyana passed away.

No I didn’t take on engineering or a trade school lol.

I’m actually going to Penn State next year.

The one in Harrisburg.

Running track again.

Yes I know education first, but it’ll make me a happier person again.

Actually switched my major to communications.

But I’ve been pretty successful this year.

Started my own blog that reached different communities and areas.

I began writing for my local paper.

I did a presentation in music class on Trinidad dedicated to you.

And I’m somewhat back in basketball now becoming a trainer.

Learning more about your character and actions taught me to start giving back to others and having a work ethic like no other.

It’s a curse and blessing, but I will never be taken for granted by nobody.

I’m just staying focused at this point.

Out of drama.

Trying to smile.

And act like I’m okay even when I’m not.

Well I just wanted to write this letter to you so I can connect again.

Still loving you no matter what.

Keep being great, I know you’re making the souls laugh in heaven right now with your humor.

I will never fold.

Love you always.

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...
