" "I fell in love with you
the day you showed me your soul.
And I spent days,
months,
and a year and
part of a year
realizing that you covered
your soul again
because you could not handle
the love
that I was touching you
with.

Additional quotes by Najwa Zebian

The only word I could put to what I was missing, to what I wanted, was that.
Give the credit for your change to yourself, to the person who woke up one day and decided, “This reality doesn’t honor my authentic self. This reality doesn’t make me feel wholly welcome and worthy. This reality doesn’t see me for who I am and doesn’t hear my voice, let alone listen to it.” Give the credit for your change to the person you are becoming.
