    About this ebook

    So Says My Heart is a collection of poems from the heart. The heart speaks of love, it takes flights of fantasy, it becomes spirit filled with words of praise and thankfulness, and finally, it breaks as it internalizes the tough struggles that affect people of color.

      Love Letters

      Mar 7, 2022

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.
