Warsan Shire
“I want to make love, but my hair smells of war and running and running.”
Warsan Shire, Teaching My Mother How to Give Birth
tags: love, war

Warsan Shire
“all the girls you’ve ever loved, i think i loved them too.
interlude for the grand sonata
every mouth you’ve ever kissed
was just practice
all the bodies you’ve ever undressed
and ploughed into
were preparing you for me.
i don’t mind tasting them in the
memory of your mouth
they were a long hallway
a door half-open
a single suitcase still on the conveyor belt
was it a long journey?
did it take you long to find me?
you’re here now,
welcome home.”
Warsan Shire

Warsan Shire
“We took such care of tomorrow, but died on the way there.”
Warsan Shire

Warsan Shire
“His eyes were the same colour as the sea in a postcard someone sends you when they love you, but not enough to stay.”
Warsan Shire

Warsan Shire
“Perhaps, the problem is not the intensity of your love, but the quality of the people you are loving.”
Warsan Shire
