Sumaidah Subki

“She was a wonderful teenage girl who had the miraculous power to cure herself from any wound, either physical or mental. With her own salty tears, she would cleanse her raw wounds. And her breaths were given, as though not to breathe but, rather, to fan her sores.”
― Khadija Rupa, Unexpressed Feelings

“But I hope you don’t feel the hurt as much as I did. You are too weak and fragile to stand that ache.

Remember, you always will be.”
― Khadija Rupa, Unexpressed Feelings

“And they can’t understand, what hurts more— Missing the other person, or pretending not to.”
― Khadija Rupa, Unexpressed Feelings

“Where the cheerful children
of unwritten poems,
play all around,
you will find me there.”
― Khadija Rupa, Unexpressed Feelings
