“do not look for healing
at the feet of those
who broke you”
― Rupi Kaur, Milk and honey

“apparently it is ungraceful of me
to mention my period in public
cause the actual biology
of my body is too real

it is okay to sell what's
between a woman's legs
more than it is okay to
mention its inner workings

the recreational use of
this body is seen as
beautiful while
its nature is
seen as ugly”
― Rupi Kaur, Milk and honey

“a daughter should
not have to
beg her father
for a relationship”
― Rupi Kaur, Milk and honey

“you are in the habit
of co-depending
on people to
make up for what
you think you lack
who tricked you
into believing
another person
was meant to complete you
when the most they can do is complement”
― Rupi Kaur, Milk and honey
