"You promised." Times have changed. So did people. It's the night before Emily Garcia and Warren Hidalgo's wedding. Everything was well-planned: perfectly-coordinated aesthetic ballroom with utmost sophistication and over-the-top trends. However, Emily has been more certain that she doesn't love Warren. Love dictates her heart as she makes a decision that could change her life forever. Love is said to be an unconditional commitment, but not to her. Date started: December 7, 2020 Date finished: ----

[Poem] They say black is the absence of colors, but I say black is beautiful even without all the colors. To be born with a race is not what we decide on and it is not something we should worry about. However, in this world we live in, it is worrisome to many - yellow, white, orange and black. Love is all we need for the entire human race. Love is what we should be spreading instead of negativity. Black lives matter, but it is best if all lives matter. -------------------------------------- This is a poem to empower not only the Black Community but also everyone in the world specifically in this virtual world during this pandemic. Let us give love and not hate. Words and terms used are not intended as racism.
