“i want to apologize to all the women i have called beautiful
before i’ve called them intelligent or brave
i am sorry i made it sound as though
something as simple as what you’re born with
is all you have to be proud of
when you have broken mountains with your wit
from now on i will say things like
you are resilient, or you are extraordinary
not because i don’t think you’re beautiful
but because i need you to know
you are more than that”

“you might not have been my first love
but you were the love that made
all other loves seem
irrelevant”

“This episode of my life is brought to you by the letters W, t, and F. I do not understand.”

“Our backs tell stories
