I am love and I deserve to be loved.

I am beautiful.

I think the problem is that I’m stuck waiting for him to do something, to make a move, to say the perfect thing. And the problem is that I shouldn’t be that girl, the one who sits and waits for him. I should be independent. I should think clearly and consistently without having my mind jump straight back to him. Yeah, falling for someone like that is the hardest thing to do. And the stupidest thing is that the thing standing in my way is fear of losing him, the fear of rejection, the fear that I might lose a friend that means everything to me. I want to be everything to him, but I’m not. I’m not the kind of girl he needs, and I’ll never be that girl.

Quotes from The Love Whisperer (via thelovewhisperer)

I could say I've been there done that but I also know of the ticking time bomb that is my being. Please run!

I am tired. This pain. This cycle. It drains me. Uproot my being from this flesh. Please

The ideas of plans that could be that come to me in the middle of the night, crazy as they may sound, are of pure innocent intent

To show up at your doorstep with ingredients for breakfast or brunch, depends on when you'll eventually wake up. Let me cook for you, even though my skills are somewhat rusty. I promise to clean up and leave as though I wasn't even there. This is the one way I want to be there for you today. All I ask is that you open the door my dear.

Being in someone’s prayers is the purest form of love.

I want you. I want to throw you against a wall, wrap your legs around my waist and kiss you. Kiss you until we have to stop to catch our breaths. I want you and only you. I want to take you on road trips that lead us to pulling over on the side of the road because we can’t keep our hands off each other. I want you and your flaws. I want your messy makeup from teary eyes as I hold you and talk to you about life. I want the 3am phone calls because you can’t sleep at night. I want to be yours and only yours. I want to taste all your cooking, even if it’s not good, even if it’s experimenting I’d have you cook every meal for the rest of my life. I want you. I want my trembling hands to grab your waist and dance with you in the middle of an empty room. I want to struggle on days when I can’t see you. I want to fight about meaningless stuff that will lead to meaningful sex. I want you. I want your hand to rest on my forearm as we enter a party, so I can reassure you that you are safe with me. I want to sing to you in the shower and have you shut me up with kisses because we both know I’m no singer. I want the ups and downs, the winter and summer days. I want you and only you…

I keep thinking of how much I love talking to you. How good you look when you smile. How much I love your laugh. I daydream about you off and on, replaying pieces of our conversations; laughing at funny things that you said or did. I’ve memorized your face and the way that you look at mine. I catch myself smiling again at what I imagine. I wonder what will happen the next time we are together and even though neither of us know what the future holds, I know one thing for sure; you’re the best thing that has ever happened to me.

DAWAMU: A Menstrual Rebirth, Aug 2015

Dawamu translates from Swahili to Forever.

Forever has it been since the #Blackwoman has been oppressed by her government; the legislation hardly works to her favour.

Forever it has been since the Ministry of Health sidelined Menstrual Health Management and #ReproductiveHealth with delay and procrastination.

However, Forever will the Black woman bloom, grow and shine regardless of her struggle, exertion and petition from the domineering overseeing male gaze.

MremboSafi’s work calls to attention the importance of artistic expression, collaboration and altruism to women’s #reprohealth and wellbeing, both for the artists and observers.

DAWAMU is a portraiture series of the Black woman declaring her rebirth, liberation and championship in a culture which concots for her toil, strain and lack of essential resources.

The black woman needs to be heard, and had her work applauded.

One of the ways to do that is to improve the state of menstruation healthcare management in our republic. DAWAMU is an artistic series that air-dries the importance of Menstrual Health Management education access in Kenya and Africa as a whole. We free ourselves from oppression by educating ourselves about reproductive health.

Courtesy of Kuona Trust, the DAWAMU series was exhibited for the public at the 2016 Kenya Art Fair in Nairobi, Kenya.

I am learning everyday to allow the space between where I am and where I want to be, to inspire me and not terrify me.
