The Poet

The poet is my big leap of faith to finally try and use my greatest gift, my favorite past time.

[thepoet]

May our hearts forget the people, places and things we loved and could not get.

‘Forget’

#letting go

[thepoet]

To begin with

Your name was poetry.

In the end,

It became everything that brought me misery .

[thepoet]

You tell me to never give up

But then you ask me

To give up

You.

[nightlyquotes]

“A poem begins with a lump in the throat.”

I talk to God about you every night

This one is for H.S

[thepoet]

To my lips your name is a cuss word.

Chocolate Eyes

With a single stroke,

you touch heaven and my heart

bring us to the very end, 

then back to the earliest start.

The days, the sadness, the fears

were our reconciliation, 

yet sometimes tore us apart.

Will you retell me the story, 

Dear boy with the chocolate eyes?

That the weak in strength’s disguise

Are strong.

That her tears will one day be a song,

That two friends do not lie

when they swear they love each other.

That the pain will not kill them

When they see them with another.

If they are side by side,

But not together.

Will I love you more tomorrow?

Our relationship was a failure and ended in sorrow.

I, that loves you now

Wishes she can erase you from memory

Somehow.

Or Remember you

And forget the boy of the chocolate eyes

That told me No lies,

That kept the world beautiful in my eyes.

That was weak, but in strength’s disguise.

I miss him so much,

And Still love him Very much.

With you, I failed for the first time 

and it makes it the worst time, 

and it makes you the worst man, 

Whom I love only in reminiscence of him,

who made me smile from ear to ear.

The boy of the chocolate eyes - Ever dear.

This one is for S.H

[thepoet]

She checks herself into hotels and hospital rooms.

Is she fiercely independent

Or incompetent

At letting anyone in?

[thepoet]

To the universe you are but another rock,

To me you are the moon ❤️

“Even in the darkest night, if you strike a match, the shadows will flee. This is a law of nature; the darkness yields to the light, no matter how small the flame.”

— Jared White

[thepoet]

You get to a point where you

Stop looking over your shoulder,

And stop looking towards the next Corner.

You just brace yourself, and walk on alone.

“Everyone says love hurts, but that is not true. Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Losing someone hurts. Envy hurts. Everyone gets these things confused with love, but in reality love is the only thing in this world that covers up all pain and makes someone feel wonderful again. Love is the only thing in this world that does not hurt.”

— Meša Selimović

“Remember that there is nothing noble in being superior to some other man. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.”

— silent intimacy.

[thepoet]

I live my life convinced that I forgot you,

Somedays, that I never even loved you!

Then you come to me in a dream,

And the healing must restart

All over again.
