Junot Díaz
“And that's when I know it's over. As soon as you start thinking about the beginning, it's the end.”
Junot Díaz, This Is How You Lose Her

Warsan Shire
“My alone feels so good, I'll only have you if you're sweeter than my solitude.”
Warsan Shire

Charles Bukowski
“Lighting new cigarettes,
pouring more
drinks.

It has been a beautiful
fight.

Still
is.”
Charles Bukowski, You Get So Alone at Times That it Just Makes Sense

Warsan Shire
“i gut fruit with my mouth
push tongue into black belly of papaya
peel lychee with teeth
bite into ripe pear
suck on stone of mango
all of this, over the kitchen sink
barefoot
middle of winter
sticky hands pushing hair away from face
moaning into sweet flesh
the whole time
your name flat against the roof of my mouth.”
Warsan Shire

Kahlil Gibran
“Travel and tell no one, live a true love story and tell no one, live happily and tell no one, people ruin beautiful things.”
Kahlil Gibran
