We always get asked what’s your ideal “perfect day,”
As I’ve gotten older, it’s changed in so many ways.
The place I’m at in my life, it’s very simplistic,
Especially since I’ve grown, aged and learned so much about myself.
A perfect day for me is actually by myself,
It’s an every Friday thing that I always do.
Waking up to sun shining bright th…read more

I always tell people the most important things to life,

Being good mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually.

It’s what I’m grateful for in my life,

The journey to get to where I am currently.

Mentally where I wake up everyday and feel good,

Where my mind isn’t cluttered and full of uncertainty.

There’s a joy and happiness to where…read more

We speak of wanting peace of mind daily,
But is that actually what we’re seeking?
Think about it for a moment,
As you’re being distracted by noise pollution.
The notification of a text or email on your phone,
The sound of your phone vibrating or ringing.
Or what about the TV playing in the background,
Or any other tech device that encompasses…read more

My writing journey started at age 13,
I never knew my poetry would take me far.
I’d spend years writing various things,
Life, love, struggles, anything I can think of.
Then my 30s hit and it was time for a change,
Writing became my change of pace in life.
When I get asked why should be given the utmost respect,
The best answer I can give is, I…read more

The title of this letter/post can sum up what I’m about to pen right now. What’s going on in the world currently, sadly I predicted years ago. See, I have this published book called “The World In Ruins” that I published in 2018 outlining what the world could end up being if we didn’t get our acts together.

What’s going on in Palestine and Isr…read more

The majority of my life, I haven’t been chosen,
Well, I’ll delve into it from a dating standpoint.
There are other elements of me not being chosen,
But for now, I’ll write this from a relationship aspect.
I’ve watched women I like chase the bad guy,
Or the one that wasn’t right for them.
Nah, don’t feel bad for me or feel empathy yet,
See, I…read more

The year 2020 was one to remember and it’s one that I’ll never forget. The year 2001 was also one of those years between graduating high school, starting college two and a half hours away from the towers that collapsed on my TV screen within the first week of school. But, let’s get back to 2020 and how my mental health wasn’t the greates…read more

June 12, 1991 was the day my life officially started. It was the day you passed away grandma and I’ll always remember that day like it was yesterday. My mom told me you were sick and I watched your boy deteriorate from lung cancer at the tender age of 8 years old.

I remember my mother picking me up from daycare early. She was preparing to tell m…read more

Jamell,

From a young age, you were gifted and special and you didn’t even know it. At age 13, you wrote your first poem. While it was writing that rhymed, the one thing you didn’t know was that it was going to take you to places you never thought.

You spent your life loving sports, having a passion for it like no other. From basketball to foo…read more
