#poems on life
I remember his hands
The way they held me so tightly
The way they let me go
༄
The day will still come
No matter how hard you close your eyes
The night will kiss the day goodbye
Painting colors in the sky
Welcome the darkness
Embrace the light
Don’t fight against the up’s and down’s of life
༄
I didn’t start the fire, but I let it burn.
We reminisce so much about the past that it becomes like a second shadow. We dream so much about the future that we hardly present. We talk so much about our lives, we forget to live it.
I forgive a lot, but I never forget what’s said and done.
No one notices your tears, no one notices your sadness, no one notices your pain, but they all notice your mistakes.
“I didn’t wanna fall in love, not at all But at some point you smiled, and , I blew it”
You never thought you could lose me until the day I walked away.
Don’t be perfect, be real.
Every single day it breaks me to pieces I’ve tasted defeat at the feet of my demons I’m such a fucking waste of achievement I should put this trigger to my brain and just squeeze it, Tell me what I did to deserve this pain Tell me what I did to deserve this hurt When all I ever did was put everybody first.
“I feel like I have wings, but I’m deep down in the ocean”
Now you’re just a story I tell people when they talk about hurt.
The more I fall in love The more you fade away, With every stroke of a brush You disappear into the canvas, Like I am painting A memory I have never lived.
Sorry if I act like I don’t need you, I wipe my own eyes when I’m at my lowest..
Keep showing me you aren’t interested, and I’ll show you what regret feels like.
Meeting you will never be my regret, tolerating the ways you hurt me always will be.
Your pain was my pain, but mine was never yours.
I’m as lost now as I was back then.
I’ll be the one to catch myself this time.
I kept quiet so I could keep you.
After all these years it still hurts.
I don’t know if I’m just lazy or if I’m just depressed.
Maybe, we are supposed to break, so that through the cracks our flowers can grow.
Don’t chase anyone who has made it clear that they don’t care enough to stay. Let them go, even if it hurts to say goodbye to them.
I’m not Okay.
That sleep after you cried your eyes out hits different.
I’m happy, hurting, and healing at the same time. Don’t ask me how.
Everything is not the same now, It feels like all our lives have changed.
I know we weren’t perfect, But I’ve never felt this way for no one.
