i just didn't expect me to fall so hard for anyone and now i can't stop falling deeper and deeper into your brown eyes. but i know that you will catch me. right?

- hochmut kommt vor dem fall // k. Luu

[drunk-on-writing]

i am the room everyone thinks of last the one no one ever wants to go in i am the darkness at the bottom of a flight of stairs; the sun never reaches here, only light from bulbs that go without being replaced once they burn out i am years of memories and trinkets and knickknacks all covered in dust or hidden away in boxes and bins; you give me the things that aren’t important to you things that you don’t want to throw away but will ultimately end up forgetting about because i, too, am easily forgotten i am only needed when you need me; i am constantly making space for you to occupy while everything is constantly being taken away from me and though i seen to be so full, i just feel empty i am not the room you want to make a home out of

i am not the type of person to believe in "forever", but every time your brown eyes meet mine - suddenly "forever" is the only option left. your kisses are dripping with honey yellow promises and the unknown.

- love made me insane // k. Luu

[tinypoetryplant]

i have never shown a person so much of me - it is so easy for you to destroy me.

- but fuck it, it is a privilege to be broken by you // k. Luu

[tinypoetryplant]

there has never been a better poem than your lips kissing my neck.

- yes please / k. Luu

[sheispoetrying]

The worst part of a broken heart Is you will not die of it You will not lay in peace On a bed of lilacs and white roses As doves are released To the open blue sky above Those around you will not whisper “Oh, Love was all she knew”

You will have to wake up in the morning With last night’s tears dried On swollen cheeks, a tight jaw Clenched in a nightmare that Has no end in sight You will get up And you will have to carry on For heartbreak is a most average torture

And your days will be most average For a while They’ll be remnants of an old life A storybook you heard, half asleep Held in the arms of hope But just wait dear girl If your heart won’t stop, even then Maybe you weren’t meant to either

before meeting you my panic attacks were the worst, making my life harder and harder each day,

when i met you, my panic attacks didn't go away but they became milder somehow,

now after all these past months of being together i started to notice that i haven't had one panic attack so far

- i think that says everything / k. Luu

i have read a lot of love poems

i have also written a lot of love poems

sometimes even about people i never loved

just so i could relate to other poets,

i was craving for the words to write but not for another individual in my life.

now you make me feel all the love poems in the world i cannot put into words

your eyes spell the charm of the stars

and my arranged words cannot contain all your magic

but my heart feels the words deeply

words like love

aren't just words anymore.

- love in poetry, poetry in love / k. Luu

[tinypoetryplant]

oh god there is no better feeling than your strong arms around me

- i fell hard for you this time / k. Luu

[tinypoetryplant]

you make me feel all the love i bottled inside of me for ages

- bottles of fine wine / k. Luu

[tinypoetryplant]

in drugs we trust

in love we die // k. Luu

[tinypoetryplant]

who knew that a stranger could mean the world to me.

who knew that the person i loved the most could be a stranger to me.

who knew that you would catch me while i was falling

& who knew that you, the used-to-be stranger, would be the one i always needed?

- not fate, just happy accidents / k. Luu

[tinypoetryplant]

i am the child of

happiness

&

sadness

- nostalgic melancholy / k. Luu

[tinypoetryplant]

you may have been the sun,

but my flowers were already dying of thirst.

so, when he brought the rain with him while entering my life -

i knew it was him who i needed.

but you didn't understand.

- & that is alright / k. Luu

[tinypoetryplant]

oh how i tried writing love poems

desperately searching for the right words

the poem sounded delightful, the words were arranged beautifully.

but every time inauthenticity haunted me.

when i found my current love

the words just spilled out like a waterfall

and not every poem about him is a masterpiece,

but i feel every single word in my soul.

- your love makes my heart write poetry / k. Luu
