“Do all lovers feel they’re inventing something?

I know the gestures.

I imagined it all,

Waiting

For

You.”

-portrait of a lady on fire

[poetrybyummeaimans]

"Who are you?" The most unsettling question if you don't know who you are. The most uplifting question if you have met and accepted yourself. The question you're dying to answer, if you've met and started to love yourself for who you are. From the first meeting, until you feel love, the path is long. Sort of like 'Miles to go before I sleep. #poetspotlight #thepoetryhouse #thepoetslist #poetsandlovers #divinefeminine #divineguidance #selfawarenessjourney #writersflare #writersclub #writersofig #thelonenotebook #poetsempire #upliftingquotes #whoareyou #questions #loveyourself #loveyouforever #writerspocket #penandpendulum #turnthatpainintopoetry #poetsoninstagram #globalpoetcult #evepoetrygroup #introspection #deepthinker #intj #poetrybyummeaimans (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO8Z82ZFCsw/?igshid=1whtstyf6eiat

I can’t help it.

You know I’m a sucker

For tragedy.

-no happy endings

[thepoetscorner]

What id give to just be sad again

Such a funny thing

The inspiration I got when I needed saving

Saved I was

Yet now I feel nothing.

-The paradox of the melancholy mind

[thepoetscorner]

Your portrait painted by words.

I fall in love with you.

Your fingers,

how they lay on ones heart to keep them warm.

How you soothe their soft soul.

And when i look at a person you’ve possessed

I can see that look of Mercy in their eyes

they beg of you; Do not break me.

You are not my captor yet.

I beg of you; please take me.

But You show no mercy in breaking my heart

With the thought that we may never meet.

Struck back to my cold reality

May you visit me in my dreams.

- a letter to love #1

If we don’t laugh

...we’ll never stop crying

-all smiles:)
