“Mengerti bahwa memaafkan itu proses yang menyakitkan. MEngerti, walau menyakitkan itu harus dilalui agar langkah kita menjadi jauh lebih ringan. Ketahuilah, memaafkan orang lain sebenarnya jauh lebih mudah dibandingkan memaafkan diri sendiri.”

“At the end of the day, it isn’t where I came from. Maybe home is somewhere I’m going and never have been before.”

“You tried to change didn’t you?
closed your mouth more
tried to be softer
prettier
less volatile, less awake
but even when sleeping you could feel
him travelling away from you in his dreams
so what did you want to do love
split his head open?
you can’t make homes out of human beings
someone should have already told you that
and if he wants to leave
then let him leave
you are terrifying
and strange and beautiful
something not everyone knows how to love.”
― Warsan Shire
