“I want you to travel roads that aren’t there,
build bridges where none exist,
sing songs that haven’t been written.
I want you to love yourself fiercely,
love others courageously,
love life unapologetically.
I want you to shatter expectations,
break out of cages,
and dance in crowded streets while it rains.”
― Timestamp: Musings of an Introverted Black Boy

“I am
the offspring of their sacrifice,
the fruit of a freedom tree
planted by the enslaved
and watered with the tears
of the shackled,
the daydream of slave minds drunk
with precious thoughts of liberty,
the answered prayer
of an oppressed people.
Because they were,
I am.

“No matter how many times I go back and forth between dreaming and dreading it, love always calls me back home. Through tender love songs and cute love stories and quirky rom-coms (which I actually don’t watch too often), it always manages to renew my faith in its existence. I may not have it yet, but I believe it’s out there somewhere waiting to find me or be found.
That will always give me hope.”
