Even before we met and long after we're both gone, my heart lives inside of yours. I'm forever and ever in love with you. -Crystal Woods
That you would be
Just the thing I needed
I needed for me
You appeared in my life
without invitation, leaving your petals behind
Lay upon my heart
Giving pause
To this feeling of unrest
Mayhap
Flowers. There must always be flowers to color my world. This picture is dedicated to #ThursdayGreen by @Kalemandra, even though I could only find green leaves today. Tomorrow is another day.

I always post this poem down at the bottom of my posts. It is one that has become so near and dear to my heart. I only post the most famous part of it, but, wanted to post it in its entirety today.
i cried the way women on tv do
folding at the middle
like a five pound note.
i called the boy who use to love me
tried to ‘okay’ my voice
i said hello
he said warsan, what’s wrong, what’s happened?
and these are what my prayers look like;
dear god
i come from two countries
one is thirsty
the other is on fire
both need water.
i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered,
"where does it hurt?"
it answered,
"everywhere"
"everywhere"
