Questions To The Woman I was Last Night | Warsan Shire
where did it begin? what went wrong? and who made you feel so worthless?
if they wanted you, wouldn't they have chosen you?
all this time, you were begging for love silently
thinking they couldn't hear you, but they smelt it on you. you must have known that they could taste the desperate on your skin
and what about the others that would do anything for you?
why did you make them love you until you could not stand it?
how are you both of these women, both flighty and needful?
where did you learn this; to want what does not want you?
where did you learn this; to leave those that want to stay?For Women Who Are Too 'Difficult' To Love | Warsan Shire
He compares you to an impossible highway, to a burning house and says you are blinding him
That he could never leave you, forget you, want anything but you
You dizzy him, you are unbearable, every woman before or after you
is doused in your name.
You fill his mouth.
His teeth ache with memory of taste. His body just a long shadow seeking yours, but you are always too intense.
Frightening in the way you want him
Unashamed and sacrificial
He tells you that no man can live up to the one who lives in your head
But even when sleeping you could feel him traveling away from you in his dreams
So what did you want to do love, split his head open?
You can't make homes out of human beings
Someone should have already told you that
And if he wants to leave, then let him leave
You are terrifying
And strange and beautiful
Something not everyone knows how to love.***
Once Upon A Time | Unknown
Once upon a time my heart fell in love
And it wasn't ordinary
Everyday, simple love, it was the need you, want you, can't be without you kind of love.
I would smile for hours
So thankful that I found you
So sure and positive you were exactly where I was meant to be
All that I could imagine
A day or time would never come and change anything about our life and love
But it did, years and time, trials and troubles, have taken us on a rollercoaster
That sometimes doesn't seem to end
And before we knew it our hearts were tired
So tired
And worn from all that we had seen, been through, and experienced and love somehow turned into comfort
Comfort of knowing someone was there
But those feelings of excitement and passion somehow faded along the way
And now we're left wondering just where it all went.
Maybe we can find love again because love is where it all began
And once upon a time
You were all my dreams that had came true
***Forever was the promise. Will we make it? Can we make it?
