My icon! The most beautiful woman out there 🙌🏾

[shaawie]

Words are our most inexhaustible source of magic. Capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it.

[sunsetquotes]

“And if somebody else has it much worse, that doesn’t really change the fact that you have what you have. Good and bad.”

— Stephen Chbosky; The Perks of Being a Wallflower

[shaawie]

they ask me about you sometimes - why, when you remember him, do you still smile? why, when you look into the distance as you remember a story - spilling out your words and feelings - does your heart soften and lips curl up, but there remains that tear at the corner of your eye? why? why are you not as angry at him as we all are for you?

and yet i have no answer to give to them, who don’t know how love can still be beautiful after the hurt.

i pray to Him wishfully everyday, uttering your name still at the end of every prayer - asking him still how you are, how your day was, if you’ve found someone else to give you the peace i never could. i pray to him, not wanting to hear the answer - just wishing that the answer is one that won’t hurt me anymore. my tongue contradicts my heart as i pray to Him to remove you out of it, to not longer give you the permanent residence you still occupy. my tears side with my heart, resisting my tongue - forcing it to stop its prayer against you, reducing the words to silent sobs and heavy breath.

it’s been long, they tell me. but I’m managing fine, i respond. i no longer hurt from you it’s just the distance i miss. i miss your voice, your presence - the change you brought to my life in such a short period of time which has changed me as a person - i no longer am who i was.

i miss you.

and i know. i know that this is how life is, i know that this is how life works. i know - that life, for the most part, isn’t always fair. that those who you mean little to are rewarded with your presence in their lives, when i can’t even catch a glimpse of your in a crowd. i know, that it is what it is - i know. and i know, that to you i’m perhaps no more than a nuisance, that to you - you’re happy i no longer exist. but i still miss you.

The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr leads a kneeling protest in Selma, Alabama, 1965

[shaawie]

I salute the people of the scar.

See, a scar is a wound that didn't kill you.

I salute you. Every single one of you.

You are all my people.

I know you've lived.

And I know life has hurt you.

I know it has pushed you down.

I know this. Trust me I do.

I know you've been on your knees.

And maybe you still are.

But I also know you will not stay there.

I know you are a warrior.

Remember that the land that is burnt, makes way for new life.

And the bone that is broken, heals stronger. Every time.

That is the way of life.

We fall to learn what it means to stand.

We crawl to understand the power of running.

We break, to be built.

Sometimes we lose, to make room for what's meant. And what is better. So much better.

And so I salute you, my people.

You, and I, are the people of the scar.

[help-n-quotes]

You must learn her. You must know the reason why she is silent. You must trace her weakest spots. You must write to her. You must remind her that you are there. You must know how long it takes for her to give up. You must be there to hold her when she is about to. You must love her because many have tried and failed. And she wants to know that she is worthy to be loved, that she is worthy to be kept. And, this is how you keep her
