Warsan Shire
“I’ve heard people using your songs as prayer, begging god in falsetto.”
Warsan Shire, Teaching My Mother How to Give Birth

Warsan Shire
“Where did you get those big eyes?
My mother.
And where did you get those lips?
My mother.
And the loneliness?
My mother.
And that broken heart?
My mother.
And the absence, where did you get that?
My father.”
Warsan Shire

Warsan Shire
“Mother says there are locked rooms inside all women, kitchen of love, bedroom of grief, bathroom of apathy. Sometimes, the men, they come with keys, and sometimes the men, they come with hammers.”
Warsan Shire

Warsan Shire
“Document the moments you feel most in love with yourself - what you’re wearing, who you’re around, what you’re doing. Recreate and repeat.”
Warsan Shire

“your mouth is a lonely place but i keep coming back.”
