5000letters:

I want to capture in words that exact breathtaking moment when you are sitting across from someone, laughing, and their laughter turns to breathing and their eyes drop to your mouth and stray away but keep coming back over and over and you know without a shadow of a doubt that there is nothing they want to do more than kiss you and I think those moments are one of the most electrifying ever 

"If you’re asking, yes, I did it. If you’re asking, I was angry. I was angry and yes,I loved that..."

“If you’re asking, yes,

I did it.

If you’re asking, I was angry.

I was angry and yes,

I loved that boy.

I seethed with it.

I was furious in him.

Our matchstick love,

we set that damned city on fire.

Even now the ash has settled

into the shape of us.

Yes, I loved him,

Yes, I loathed him,

it doesn’t matter.

I would have still burned that entire forest down.”

pinned her up against the wall because she's a masterpiece.

I don't get it why do you avoid questions about your religion? I mean your artistry and emotion and actions collide with it? Why not just get out of a religion that condemns you instead of trying to make it something it's not or avoiding it...

I avoid it because honestly, it’s tiring the amount of intolerance or cruel messages that I get for being honest. It’s exhausting and it’s not worth it. The way I feel about my religion is intensely personal and it’s mine and other people don’t get to come into my space and try to corrupt it with their preaching or their ignorance. I think a lot of my Muslim followers forget that I’m human as well as Muslim and that’s sad for them. It’s sad that they think it’s acceptable for them to talk to people like that.

No, come on I just want to know what your parents would say, I'm not trying to be rude.

Unless you’re my dad, which I strongly suspect you’re not since he’s not particularly tech savvy, I’m gonna kindly ask you to piss off :)

Isn't smoking against your religion?

I’m in London with Salma! It’s been such a lovely day and I bought two new lipsticks and some polka dot dungarees and we’re having coffee and a cheeky cigarette in a coffee shop in Leicester Square!
