Rupi Kaur is a Canadian feminist and writer and if you aren't already following her on social media you best hit follow and thank me later. Her poetry revolves around feminism, love, hurt, heartbreak and a saucy-straightforward sense of passion. Here are a few of her best quotes if you want some passionate poetic love tonight.
1. "He had the smell
of starvation on his lips"
2. "It is your blood in my veins
tell me how I'm supposed to forget"
3. "What am I to you he asks
I put my hands in his lap
and whisper you
are every hope
I've ever had
in human form"
4. "Who said I wanted easy
I don't crave easy
I crave goddamn difficult"
5. "The very thought of you
has my legs spread apart
like an easel with a canvas
begging for art"
6. "I'd be lying if I said
you make me speechless
the truth is you make my
tongue so weak it forgets
what language to speak in"
7. "You might not have been my first love
but you were the love that made
all the other loves
irrelevant"
8. "You've touched me
without even
touching me"
9. "You talk too much...
I can think of better ways to use that mouth"
10. "It's your voice
that undresses me"
11. "You wrap you fingers
around my hair
and pull
this
is how you make
music out of me
—foreplay"
12. "Baby lick me. like your mouth has the gift of reading and I'm your favorite book. find your favorite page in the soft spot between my legs and read it carefully...this is how we pull language out of one another with the flick of our tongues..."
