Naked Soul

You’re like a rainy afternoon on a sunny day; always wet and warm.

Deja Vu

You give me déjà vu. You give me that, “it’s okay to love” kind of feeling, that “it’s safe to open up” kind of yearning,
that “forever starts now” but with meaning.

Naked

Your love breathes life into my veins
and my skin glows of the joy you bring,
because you love me whole,
with no

You love me unfinished and raw;
you want me unfiltered with no made up smiles.

You love me naked
and bear with my truths.

Chapter 12 — Something Borrowed

We get an in depth look at the family dynamics in the Muujiza household.

Mapenzi explores her relationship with Mfariji, although hostile in the beginning, she eventually gave her a chance and accepted that there are things she can’t change and that acceptance was the best option for her family.

From dance lessons to lessons on etiquette, we get a bit of background on Mapenzi’s upbringing and how it has affected the daughters of the royal family.

I work hard to convince myself that the fluttering is the sound of butterflies trying to find a place to nest; that the rushing from my head to the pit of my stomach and back to my head again is more than just anxiety from future regret. I choose to hold my tongue and be…
