Your words satisfy a hunger I knew existed, but had no way of expressing. It’s not until I read your words that I am able to uncover and dust off the parts myself I haven’t brought to the light, desires I have yet to acknowledge, and power I have yet to harness.

Thank you for the permission to live a life that satisfies my soul, no matter what.

Thank you for telling us that what we crave is what we deserve and to never settle.

Thank you for taking and redistributing divine feminine energy through your work.

Thank you for speaking directly to the heart. No games, no frills, no bull shit.

Thank you, for showing us how it’s done, Queen.

You can purchase Nayyirah Waheed's books nejma and Salt on Amazon.com and can keep up with her latest work on Instagram.
