When I am afraid to speak is when I speak.
That is when it is most important.
i loved you
because
it was easier
than
loving myself.
Even if you are a small forest surviving off of moon alone, your light is extraordinary.
Nayyirah WaheedChemistry is you touching my arm and it setting fire to my mind"
Nayyirah Waheed
expect sadness
like
you expect rain.
both,
cleanse you.
remember,
you were a writer
before
you ever
put
pen to paper.
just because you were not writing
externally.
does not mean you were not writing
internally.
i knew you
before
i met you.
i’ve known you my whole life.
i do not expect my child’s respect.
just because i have given birth to their life.
does not mean they owe me.
anything.
what i want most
is to look into my child’s eyes
and
see
that i have given birth
to
a
heart.
have
honored.
held and feed.
someones
heart.
from the moment we first met.
and
they love me for it.
if
the ocean
can calm itself,
so can you.
we
are both
salt water
mixed with
air.
