Silence, My Pen Is Writing Blaque Graffiti - Tessa B. Blaque

Silence has never meant absence.

It has meant survival.

In Silence, My Pen Is Writing Blaque Graffiti,

Tessa B. Blaque transforms quiet into testimony.

This collection of poetry is a celebration of Black beauty-

the richness of our skin, the brilliance of our minds,

the sacred inheritance of our resilience.

But it does not look away from injustice. It does not soften the truth.

These pages confront injustice without apology.

Through lyrical reflection and unflinching honesty,

these poems speak to the wounds carried in silence-

systemic erasure, generational grief,

and the quiet strength required to endure.

It carries the weight of being seen yet unheard.

Every line is both affirmation and protest.

Every page is both mirror and monument.

This is poetry that honors the softness of Black love

and the fire of Black resistance.

This is language that refuses to shrink.

This is art that remembers.

This is beauty that survives.

When the world tries to silence us,

the pen writes anyway.
