to love and lose and still be kind.
- Warsan Shire
It’s not my responsibility to be beautiful. I’m not alive for that purpose. My existence is not about how desirable you find me.
i ask did you ever love me?
you say of course, of course so quickly
that you sound like someone else
i ask are you made of steel? are you made of iron?
you cry on the phone, my stomach hurts
i let you leave, i need someone who knows how to stay.
