Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur quotes

you were so afraid of my voice I decided to be afraid of it too

the thing about having an alcoholic parent is an alcoholic parent does not exist
simply an alcoholic who could not stay sober long enough to raise their kids

you might not have been my first love but you were the love that made all the other loves irrelevant.

you were so distant i forgot you were there at all

i had to leave i was tired of allowing you to make me feel anything less than whole

you whisper i love you what you mean is i don't want you to leave

i will not have you build me into your life when what i want is to build a life with you~the difference

we began with honesty let us end in it too

neither of us is happy but neither of us wants to leave so we keep breaking one another and calling it love

i am losing parts of you like i lose eyelashes unknowingly and everywhere

just because you recognized my traits didn't mean I did not have them(modified)

loneliness is a sign you are in desperate need of yourself

another person cannot complete you, only complement(modified)

do not look for healing at the feet of those who broke you

accept yourself as you were designed

losing you was the becoming of myself

(we are at war with what comes most naturally to us)

ps: no punctuation marks or capital letters are in this blog as the writer herself writes in gurumukhi script in which both of these are avoided
