Yolanda’s Notes & Highlights

Emotional Descent by K.C. Mills

5 highlights

The smile on her face had me wanting to buy a truckload of books and have them delivered to her spot just to ensure she never came up empty with the thing that put that cute ass smile on her face.

“i loved you on purpose
i was open on purpose
i still crave vulnerability & close talk
& i'm not even sorry bout you bein sorry
you can carry all the guilt & grime ya wanna
just dont give it to me
i cant use another sorry
next time
you should admit
you're mean/ low-down/ triflin/ & no count straight out
steada bein sorry alla the time
enjoy bein yrself”
― Ntozake Shange, For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide / When the Rainbow Is Enuf
