  • Who Do You Say I Am? ( A Love Letter)

    “To My One & Only” I truly thank G☀️D for you daily. If I’m honest at this stage of our relationship it’s definitely multiple times throughout my day into my night. You are magnificent. You are immaculate. You are who I aspire to be. Words can not truly describe how you make me feel, but you bring about a sense of peace and joy. I am capable of achieving anything I put my mind to. With you I will never lose, I either win or learn. You display servitude daily. It wasn’t until I wrote this letter that I even tried to imagine life without you. Complete darkness!

    Bright, vibrant, beautiful, bold, brutal, loving, caring, warm, present, intentional, nurturing, honest, forgiving, safe & secure are some of the qualities and characteristics I love about you! You know every part of me, inside out. Not once have you ever judged or treated me differently. You continuously shower me with mercy and amazing grace! No one knows my secrets except you and
    G☀️D! Your loyalty to G☀️D allows you to show up for me effortlessly. You are faithful in all of your ways. You are a gift and it is because of you I have favor.

    The distractions of the world often interrupts our connection, reminding me that I am not worthy of you. Often times my mind gets polluted and distorts my vision. It’s then I am blinded, tricked and bamboozled into sabotaging true love. With you I have hope for the future! I love how you sit high and look low, shining on the just and the unjust. You continue to bless others no matter how much they curse you. No matter how many times I stray away, you’re always there to welcome me back with open arms. Your love is unconditional! Even when my family and friends turn their backs on me, you are there to comfort me. Thank you for being my light in darkness. Shadows do not exist without you!

    Moving forward into the future I plan to be intentional about spending time with you. I love you and you complete me. Abundance is my birthright, and to gain access to my inheritance I must acknowledge you above me. I recognize I have 2 ears, 2 eyes and a mouth for a reason. I must listen when you speak. Silence is golden and your voice is so fulfilling and sweet! It is with you HUMANS can truly just BE!

    You are the portal that connects the heavens and the earth. I yearn to be a reflection. Heavens tears and your radiant smile produces rainbows, reminding us that there is a G☀️D greater than us all. We are the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and because of you we will forever be connected to the creator.

    You are the all seeing eye. You are the original compass. You are the bright and morning star! You are the light of the world! You are infinite and I call you S☀️N because you shine like one.

  • I Love the Sun

    I love the way the Sun caresses me.

    His rays extending out to touch me ever so gently,

    Sometimes,

    Aggressively.

    Sweltering heat.

    Body dripping with sweat.

    I love how warm he is,

    And how he makes love to my skin.

    Highlighting my,

    glistening melanin

    In

    His presence.

    He compliments me.

    Tells me that I’m iridescent too,

    That I’m

    Bright like him,

    I shine like him.

    He kisses my ears,

    My face,

    My feet,

    My chest.

    He kisses me all over,

    Just like a man should.

    He kisses me like no man could.

    He tells me to take my clothes off.

    He asks to see my bare skin,

    Expose myself to him.

    So he can turn me,

    Fifty shades darker.

    I love him,

    His yellow hues,

    His bright beam,

    He makes me gleam.

    He brings me joy.

    He encourages me.

    Tells me to keep my head up

    And to look on the brighter side of things.

    I call him my Mr. Bright side.

    With him there’s no wasting time inside.

    I’d rather be outside with him.

    I’d rather see the world lit up

    Than see days dim.

    I prefer his Sun rays.

    His way

    Of

    Communicating is

    Clear,

    Firm,

    Straight to the point,

    Exact.

    He makes me feel HOT.

    He warms my heart.

    Damn I love the Sun.

    I love the summer fun,

    Being outside,

    Sometimes shading my eyes,

    Cuz of how dazzling he be.

    I LOVE his Sun rays.

    I love him when it rains.

    They are my favorite duo.

    Sun and rain,

    Washing away my worries,

    Shedding light on my power,

    Powerful is he.

    Dangerous he could be,

    But

    I treat him how he treats me.

    I smile,

    Appreciate his presence.

    I lay under him without a care.

    I hold him in my heart how he holds me with his heat.

    I love it when we meet.

    Every day is different,

    Entails something new.

    He helps me get a clear view.

    He makes love to my skin,

    Cuz he loves my skin.

    Me and him kin.

    Alike.

    I absorb him and I’m meant to.

    All types of trouble to get into when he’s around.

    It’s hard to frown,

    Cuz the Sun knows just how to turn one upside down.

    He’s clever,

    Using his beautiful full light to enchant me.

    I can see the glimmers dancing,

    On my,

    Shea buttered skin,

    Just for him.

    He lights up my eyes,

    Exposes the brown hue that is my hair.

    With him I’m always bare.

    Naked.

    Cuz he sees me.

    He means me

    No harm.

    With his charming self.

    I love to have him wrapped up all over my arms.

    Damn I LOVE the Sun.

    It’s so much fun when we become one.

    He tells me secrets,

    As he,

    Slips into every part of my ear.

    He is peaceful.

    He makes me feel at ease.

    With him I don’t have to think.

    Just be.

    Ugh!

    My favorite thing to do with him is sleep.

    Chile,

    He puts me to sleep.

    All I need is a mat and a pillow and underneath him I won’t hear a peep.

    I’m safe with him.

    Wherever he is there is my protection.

    An armored weapon

    When he needs to be.

    Don’t get too close cuz he will burn you.

    Psht, he don’t play about me.

    Sometimes,

    He plays hide and seek,

    With the clouds.

    I’ll see him and the next minute he’s nowhere to be found.

    But ion trip, cuz I know he’s always around.

    And even if it’s cloudy I know he’ll come back around.

    So he can come caress my beautiful

    Brown skin,

    Brown eyes,

    Brown hair,

    Some more.

    He’s everything and more than I could have ever imagined.

    He shines on me and shows me my potential.

    He shows me how to be gentle,

    Patient,

    With myself.

    I love the Sun.

    So long ago our love story begun.

    And I promise can’t no one,

    Take our love away.

    He’s here to stay.

    So girl, let me let you go.

    I’m finna go lay,

    With my friend,

    My man,

    The Sun.

  • my love

    As I gather my thoughts my mind begins to spark up in flames

    Opening my brain to the wonderful possibilities of Ifs, and’s, and buts, of what certain things can be

    Think.. think.. myself says to me but my arms and fingers start to move on their own without even saying a word to me

    Blink my eyes open widely!
    As I begin to write down my first line I know It has to start with a fierce beginning that would grab my reader’s attention

    but must I mention her thumbs are like a well-trained dog leading to other dog packs that are ready to bark together once and for all

    But for once she, who is me that is I is ready for many and all she’s willing to share words with the world even if that means getting out of her shell

    See if you’re listening and paying attention it all started when Tionna was 12 creating raps pairing words together making them have a sort of sense

    Did I mention these words were in many different alphabetical ways see pay attention “I step up in the booth I go ham on the desk they looking for Tionna there she go where she at. 12 years old got her condos on stack talking about me man y’all just just whack!!”

    These words were more than just rhymes it was like a melody that played a certain tone on the radio all night long

    Until I she who is me created a song at 17 I finally felt belonged “Personal love” is all I ever needed and wanted but what can a teenager preach or even say huh

    Love wow that devotion of picking up that pen and writing words that closely and slowly floated like the ocean I mean no one, no one like Alicia Keys would say could stop me from writing because I’m that person

    that fell in love with poetry at the age of…. I mean I told you I’ve been writing since I was 12

    Are you guys even listening?
    She who is me.. that is her within me is proud of how far she would even come to think that words became a melody and not just some type of beat

    But one can recite and speak upon many things just from her thoughts alone or just everything meanings

    You see once you find something you love, you can’t let go of that passion because if you do it may crumble you like cookies in an empty box take my advice if you’re asking

    I can’t let go of this writing passion see I
    finally, found something I love, love, love it’s that something I can’t get enough of writing holds my heart clinger than any sticky glove

    But if you all have something you love please don’t ever give up!

    • Tionna, I love the way you ended this piece with the line: “But if you all have something you love please don’t ever give up!” Too often, people let go of hobbies and passions they love because they simply don’t have time or don’t think they are good enough. It is wonderful that you feel strongly enough about your passion to know that others n…read more
