All that I have: I love you, America.

I don’t have much.

Much money, anyway.

I have an unlimited supply of love, hope and joy, which I freely give to you.

It’s all that I have. I hope it’s enough, for you.

I don’t have much.

Much in the way of looks they say, apparently.

I have an unlimited supply of support, encouragement and care, which I give without strings, without conditions.

It’s all I have. I hope it’s enough for you.

I don’t have much.

Much in the way of stature, of prestige, or so the world seems to think.

I have an unlimited supply of gratitude, of thanksgiving and charity, which I give to you with open arms.

It’s all I have. I hope it’s enough for you.

I don’t have much.

Much in the way of usefulness, being a loud person of color, to hear quite a few members of society, or so they say.

I have an unlimited supply of sisterhood, watching your backness and friendship, which I give with an open heart to all my brothers and sisters of EVERY race, creed, and gender.

It’s all I have. I hope it’s enough for you.

I don’t have much, America. Yet, all that I have, I give to you.

I love you, America. Even as many of you refuse to love me back.

I am here for you, America. I pray for you. I pray that you will heal. I pray that, one day, America, you will embrace me as much as I embrace you.

Be encouraged, America. We got this. We CAN, we WILL, one day, ALL of us, come together in love, solidarity and unity.

Life is short, America. We, all of us, are running out of time. Best we use that time to FINALLY become The UNITED States of America.

His servant and your friend/sister,

Cassandra

Note: It has been truly disappointing and disheartening to see so many Americans who have been gunned down for no reason other than being of a different race/creed/religion. It’s time for folk to lay down iron arms and open their arms/hearts/ears in fellowship and understanding. I will never stop praying and being hopeful we shall come together: United.

Your thoughts matter! Let us know how you feel.
