Oh, to be loved.

By Makayla Marrow

I know love is a lot to handle: the ups and downs, wanting to be right when you're wrong. Feeling the need to be understood on a level that's deeper than the surface, but love is the most wonderful thing in this world; it's the only thing that makes sense. Love gives us a sense of wonder and purpose. Oh, to love. Oh, to be loved.

Her heart cried for the love she gave unconditionally.
Who was she?
A woman of color.
