Black love to me is loving even when you are not liked or loved back.
Loving regardless of the wounds you walk with, regardless of the pain you feel.
Loving because you know what it feels like to lack, you know what it feels like to NOT lean into love— black love.
Love that is ever growing, it seeps through the cracks of the concrete, under and through the dilapidated buildings many call home.
Black love-- love that looks different but comes from the core of life lessons, soul food, and God Her Self.
Black love-- love that transcends the darkest places knowing what it is to exist in the shadows only ever seen or felt behind a vail of excessive aggression and titles of self-hate.
Black love no matter the decade, generation, place or time is something that can be felt from every corner of the room , it is acceptance, it is power, it is light, it is essence, energy, spirit — not God, but God like — a reflection.
