salt.

by Nayyirah Waheed

there are feelings. you haven’t felt yet. give them time. they are almost here. – fresh

when you are struggling in your writing (art). it usually means you are hearing one thing. but writing (creating) another. – honest | risk

i found flaws and they were beautiful. – ugly

i bleed every month. but do not die. how am i not magic. – the lie

where you are. is not who you are. – circumstances

expect sadness like you expect rain. both cleanse you.

sit in the ocean. it is one of the best medicines on the planet. – the water

you will drown if you do not have boundaries. they are not optional. this structure counts on your inability to say no. mean no. they take no from our first breath. go back and return it to your mouth.
