Warsan Shire, Teaching My Mother How to Give Birth

Warsan Shire
“give your daughters difficult names. give your daughters names that command the full use of tongue. my name makes you want to tell me the truth. my name doesn’t allow me to trust anyone that cannot pronounce it right.”
Warsan Shire

Warsan Shire
“The ego hurts you like this: you become obsessed with the one person who does not love you. blind to the rest who do.”
Warsan Shire

Warsan Shire
“I have my mother’s mouth and my father’s eyes; on my face they are
still together.”
Warsan Shire

Warsan Shire
“I’m not sad, but the boys who are looking for sad girls always find me. I’m not a girl anymore and I’m not sad anymore. You want me to be a tragic backdrop so that you can appear to be illuminated, so that people can say ‘Wow, isn't he so terribly brave to love a girl who is so obviously sad?’ You think I’ll be the dark sky so you can be the star? I’ll swallow you whole.”
Warsan Shire
