To be black in the world is to be intimate with trauma and pain. Heartache. Frustration. It is familiar. Barely surviving in the midst of pure madness. Insanity. Sometimes, killing off parts of yourself feels like the only solution. Burying your soul, while suppressing fury. Mourning the loss of another you.
