If I ever get buried and the bugs are eating me, I expect that when they reach my stomach, they will meet resistance.
The butterflies I grew when we first spoke will still defend their home. I imagine the worms baffled, outnumbered by wings made of memory.
There are still sentences I have yet to discover, and somewhere, perhaps, there is a woman whose name will make me put the notebook down because the life we are building will finally require both my hands.

I have loved women whose lives are now proceeding without my participation. I hope their mornings are kind to them. I hope the people they eventually choose understand the peculiar treasures they carry. As for me, I will probably continue writing.

Alhamdulilah it was my turn last Saturday, the 7th of November.
May the almighty make my home one filled with love, laughter, peace and happiness.
May it turn out better than our hearts desire.
Please pray for us. Thank you.

All forms of love have a closing paragraph. It could be death. It could be divorce.
All love ends.

Well, you and me both, stranger.
You and me both.
There are evenings when I envy those who seem to have discovered their final destination in another human being. I wonder what it must feel like to love without the familiar suspicion that one day the conversation may acquire a closing paragraph.

And the trouble with you, my dear, is that you've made a full-time vocation of navel-gazing. I wish you'd tear your gaze from your own reflection long enough to glimpse the extraordinary feats within your grasp, were you to lavish half as much devotion on possibility as you do on self-consciousness.

'Why are you so invested?'
Bro this patient is a human being, you’re having a rough day but they’re having an even rougher one for sure.
Just do all you can to help man
I yearn with such unreasonable intensity that I fear even Shakespeare would have to put down his quill, take a moment, and reconsider the limits of the human capacity for longing.

Maybe all writers are just people trying to leave evidence that they were here, that they noticed the rain, loved someone, lost something, and found the world worth describing despite everything.
You won’t believe that what led to this tweet was me saying that you can criticise Islam without branding all Muslims as terrorists and that you cannot form a reasonable coalition or a formidable opposition with any group while being bigoted towards them. It’s so over. 😅
