“Iubirea e nesăţioasă, de un egoism sălbatic, vrea să-i sacrifici tot fără a-i cere nimic în schimb, mulţumindu-te doar cu ceea ce-ţi oferă. Eu am rîvnit totul de la tine pentru că îţi dădusem totul. Oricum, ceva mai bun decît mine nu puteam să-ţi dau. De aici a pornit eroarea, de la acest schimb în aparenţă just. Dar ce experienţă aveam, de unde să ştiu că iubirea dintre două fiinţe nu e egală, că balanţa atîrnă cînd într-o parte, cînd într-alta după imponderabile de care arar ne dăm seama. În cazul nostru balanţa atîrna în favoarea ta, lanţurile cu care mă încătuşai erau mai puternice decît ale mele. De ce te-am judecat luîndu-mă pe mine drept unitate de măsură? Bărbatul, datorită se vede eului său aşa-zis "superior", se dă dragostei cu prudenţă, păstrînd rezerve pentru sine, de aceea îşi păstrează, măcar parţial, echilibrul. Pe cînd noi, femeile, cînd iubim, ne dăm integral mistuindu-ne în aşa fel încît nu ne rămîne decît umbra celor ce am fost. Iată de ce prăbuşirea noastră în lipsa coloanei vertebrale e aşa de catastrofală.”
― Mihail Drumeş, Invitaţia la vals

“you are a horse running alone
and he tries to tame you
compares you to an impossible highway
to a burning house
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
and you tried to change didn't you?
closed your mouth more
tried to be softer
prettier
less volatile, less awake
but even when sleeping you could feel
him travelling 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.”
― Warsan Shire

“I have my mother’s mouth and my father’s eyes; on my face they are
