A cup of half baked poetry

[cuppofpoetry]

Every night, my eyes become oceans—

flooded with storms too wild to hold,

too silent to explain.

[cuppofpoetry]

My heart no longer holds space for love or faith.

[cuppofpoetry]

I tried to become their idea of perfect for love, and slowly lost my own light.

"Arguing to be right is youth. Knowing when to be silent is growth.”

“Loving you feels like home—

the place I return to

when the world breaks me.”

[cuppofpoetry]

“Loving you feels older than time —

I knew your soul

before I ever learned your name.”

[cuppofpoetry]

“I’m afraid of the day surviving without you stops hurting—

afraid I’ll learn to breathe again

and you’ll no longer be the air.”

[cuppofpoetry]

“If words are everything, love will never survive.

If love is everything, some words must be forgiven.”

[cuppofpoetry]

“When silence enters a relationship, love has already left.”

[cuppofpoetry]

“Some love never asks if it’s possible.

It arrives like fate—

and only then asks

what part of you you’re willing to lose.”

[cuppofpoetry]

“Emotional fragility is not a sin;

it is a heart that feels before it protects itself.

It loves without armor,

breaks without making noise,

and still keeps beating—

even when no one notices how much it hurts.”

[cuppofpoetry]

“At the end of the day, everyone leaves—your thoughts don’t.

So be careful what you let in.”

[cuppofpoetry]

Love dressed you in spring.

Winter claimed my garden

and never learned how to leave.”

[cuppofpoetry]

“You remained untouched

while I crossed oceans of myself for you,

where grief pulled me under

and never let go.”

[cuppofpoetry]

“A world blooming with flowers—and still, we bleed.”

[cuppofpoetry]

“Truth rarely tastes sweet when it’s poured into your own court.”

[cuppofpoetry]

We all carry battles no one hears.

Silent storms that steal our words

and leave us fighting in quiet corners

only our hearts truly know.

No ear can hold the weight we hide,

no language can capture that ache.

And yet—

it takes oceans of courage

to bury the pain inside our smiles

and pretend our world isn’t breaking.
