I’ve been tripping out lately since my people passed on. That’s my mom, my auntie, my granny. I’ve been yelling and getting easily irritated and shhh. I’d be on my bed and shhh.
I’m releasing my grief through my anger. I’ll be working out and shooting hoops. That makes me feel better. I get the anger off my mind. Talking on the phone to friends and it gets the pain off my mind. This anger might always be with me, but I’m going to keep it under control. I’m going to keep it under control with my breathing and meditating. The thing I miss about my auntie if she would buy me things for my birthday and always invite me over.
My granny would give me great advice. I’m going to miss that. My mama do everything. She was there to make me food iron my clothes and give me advice.
