I hid the love I felt




The moon listened to the words I couldn’t speak and cried at the words you said. I don’t remember what you said exactly but I remember breaking down. You never saw that side of me. You only saw what I wanted you to see - the one who laughed at everything you said. Even when you broke my heart, I laughed so you wouldn’t know it hurt.

I hid the love I felt because I thought it was crazy to love, to love someone who didn’t love you back. But God, did it kill me. I am the worst kind of person to fall in love with, but I am also the worse at falling in love, because I never did until you. And then I am a ship lost in sea. I lose stability. I lose my mind. And even the stars start to think I am insane.

— Ming D. Liu

Violets are blue, and so are you


violets are blue, and so are you

i look at you
and i can see it
in your face
you think you hide it,
but i see you

i see the hurt
the dark circles beneath your eyes
and the quiet plea
dancing on your bottom lip,
too afraid to be voiced
too afraid to be heard
because you’re too afraid
of being hurt

and i just want to take you
and wrap you up in my arms
hold you, console you
tell you things that you’ll believe,
but you don’t seem to believe
anything, anymore
because you have been deceived
too many times

so i’ll just look at you
and see the pain in your fake smile,
and i’ll smile back

and i’ll hear the attempted deception
when you tell me that you’re just tired,
and i’ll say me too

i know you’re broken inside

violets are blue,
and so are you

I miss us, and I miss you.


Say it one more time;

tell me you love me.

Whisper it to my ear.

I want to hear it from your lips.

Say my name

I just want to hear

you call my name again.

I miss your voice;

I miss your laugh;

I miss fighting with you;

I miss us, and I miss you.

In the midst of hate...



My dear,

In the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love.
In the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile.
In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm.
I realized, through it all, that…
In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.
And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back.

Truly yours,
Albert Camus

So many people walk this earth..



So many people walk this earth,
with purpose in their eyes,
But in their heart of hearts they know,
What they’re living is a lie.
The alarm goes off at 6am,
Like every other day.
So they can walk into a job they hate,
Because they need the pay.
All time does is take from them,
But it never seems to give.
Always waiting for the day to come,
When they finally start to live.
I’m all too scared that one day soon,
I’ll become just like the rest.
Only walking with the crowd,
Because my dreams have been oppressed.
That one day I’ll look back on life,
At the opportunities that I missed,
And realize I never truly lived.
All I did was just exist.

-Erin Hanson-

It's hard not to fall in love..



It's hard not to fall in love with someone
when they see the mixed up parts of your soul.
When they understand the darkest and dustiest corners
of you mind. When it's four a.m and they call because
they know you're not asleep.

I miss you all the time...


I don't know when or how you crept slowly in to my life
All i know is you are everywhere in every hour of my day
in a second or two a thought of you
And i seem to get lost so easily in your smile
or within a small memory of how your voice sounds like
when you're happy.
I don't know how or why but i miss you. I miss you all the time. - j.a


I understand..


Dear you,

I understand why you're leaving
I know who i am
I know we're not meant to be
I don't understand why destiny
would let us meet knowing we
cannot be together, ever

I want you to know that
I am not angry or hating you.
I am not asking for your
sympathy or asking you
to come back to me.

This is just my way to
cope with my pain,
by sharing quotes and poems
with those who understand.

-You go spread your wings and be happy!

I am not sad because of you.



Dear you,
I am not sad because of you.
I was sad a long time before i met you.
You think you hurt me but you can't hurt
someone who is already broken.
You came and made me smile and feel better.
Don't ever think that I am sad because of you.
Loving you never hurt.
Our circumstances are...

You taught me that love can be an amazing...



You taught me that love can be an amazing and beautiful thing but you also taught me that love will keep you up till midnight crying softly to yourself, wondering how much more pain someone can endure.

Do you feel me when i think about you?



It's been months
I tried so hard to forget you
I played games a lot, I slept a lot
I made jokes, I laughed a lot
I tried everything I could
to focus on my life but
in the end...

every little things reminded
me of you...even emoji and
smiley made me sad.

I missed your voice,
I missed arguing with you
I missed your laugh

I missed you a lot
and I missed you already now

Do you feel me when I think about you?



She’s not for everyone..



She’s not for everyone and she knows it, people find her different and strange. She dances in the rain, laughs when she cries and loves through her pain. People fear the unknown, they never knew a girl like her.

There are a few things in life so beautiful they hurt


There are a few things in life so beautiful they hurt: swimming in the ocean while it rains, reading alone in empty libraries, the sea of stars that appear when you’re miles away from the neon lights of the city, bars after 2am, walking in the wilderness, all the phases of the moon, the things we do not know about the universe, and you.

Beau Taplin

It’s terrifying how quickly we can find homes in the hearts of others.


It’s terrifying how quickly we can find homes in the hearts of others. And equally as terrifying how quickly we become homeless when their hearts no longer have room for us.

Michael Greywood Poetry

Mouthful of forevers



I am not the first person you loved. You are not the first person I looked at with a mouthful of forevers. We have both known loss like the sharp edges of a knife. We have both lived with lips more scar tissue than skin. Our love came unannounced in the middle of the night. Our love came when we’d given up on asking love to come. I think that has to be part of its miracle.

This is how we heal. I will kiss you like forgiveness. You will hold me like I hope. Our arms will bandage and we will press promises between us like flowers in a book. I will write sonnets to the salt of sweat on your skin. I will write novels to the scar of your nose. I will write a dictionary of all the words I have used trying to describe the way it feels to have finally, finally found you.

And I will not be afraid of your scars. I know sometimes it’s still hard to let me see you in all your cracked perfection, but please know: whether it’s the days you burn more brilliant than the sun or the nights you collapse into my lap your body broken into a thousand questions, you are the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. I will love you when you are a still day. I will love you when you are a hurricane.

Mouthful of Forevers by Clementine von Radics

20 Best Poetry Quotes by R.M Drake



And I loved her, all of her, for how I watch her crawl beneath my skin and into my soul. And I loved her, all of her, for how she would glide over my dark trails of roses left to grow. And I loved her, all of her, for how she devoured me whole and made sense of all my bones. But most of all, I loved her, all of her, for healing my pieces and guiding them all back home. -R.M.Drake




R.M Drake or Robert M. Drake or his full name is Robert Macias is an American Author/Poet. He is a self-published writer who gains his popularity by posting his work on Instagram. He becomes social media phenomena and now a top seller author on Amazon. I'm one of his biggest fans. You've probably seen R.M.Drake Poetry or quotes around the social media. I'm sharing some of his beautiful written poem/quotes here. He steals my heart with his words. It's raw, real, deep and so relatable. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did. Don't forget to check out his latest book Gravity.

I can’t remember what it was like before you, and I don’t even know how we got here, but maybe that’s exactly what I needed. Someone who could make me forget where I came from and someone who could make me love without knowing how to fall.


She was fierce, she was strong, she wasn’t simple. She was crazy and sometimes she barely slept. She always had something to say. She had flaws and that was OK. And when she was down, she got right back up. She was a beast in her own way, but one idea described her best. She was unstoppable and she took anything she wanted with a smile.

And all she wants to hear is the love you have for her.

She had such a beautiful mind. The kind of mind that sparked my dreams. The kind of mind that lead my inspiration, and it was the kind of inspiration that only the young at heart could imagine.

And there were always those nights where she preferred the rain over people. Because the rain would remind her of how she should feel and people would remind her of the things she always wanted to forget.



You lost her and it wasn’t because she was hard to hold, or love, or touch but because she was made of your absence, of all the things you ignored and all the beautiful poetry you read but failed to understand.

Because the end of the world happens at least once every hour since you’ve been gone. Because all the things I’ve told you I’ve really meant. Because without you there is no me. Because it hurts but I’m still breathing. Because they say “letting go” will “help me” but all I could do is think about you. Because I still love you and you are not here.


You don’t destroy people you care about. That’s not how it works, that should never be an option. Choose laughter. Choose peace. Choose love.Remember this and remember well. It is, after all, a lonely world. A world where two people can share the same heart, but there will always be something missing. The saddest of the sad is, how eventually, we as humans outgrow the things we love, and all we could do is remember how they once made us feel.

You don’t have to sink to the bottom of the ocean and watch the world as you fall. You don’t have to isolate yourself because you’re hurt. People who love you will always be waiting near the shore and every once in a while it’s okay to come to the surface to breathe. We all need air to grow, we all need an ocean to let go, but it’s people who will save you, always remember that.



It was the way you laughed, I knew I wanted that in my life.

I want to see you grow. I want to see you for who you are. I want ten years to pass, so you could come back and tell me how much you’ve learned. I want to see you inspired and touched by the flames inside you. I want to see you do all the things we both know you’re capable of… But I can’t help you if you can’t help yourself, because I believe in all the things that move inside you. So give yourself a chance and I will be here just in case you ever fall.



Because fate has a funny way of mending things back together. I mean, you’re here and I’m here, and we’ll find each other again… that is, if that’s the way it’s supposed to be. So if you believe and I believe, then someway, somehow, we’ll find each other again…just don’t forget me and I’ll promise to always have you close to my heart.

It must be madness, the way we let things devour us. The way we let the things we want out, back in. And the horror of it all is, we stay attracted to everything that hurts. We cling to it and never really learn to let go. So perhaps we do want happiness but we also desire to keep the pain close. Close enough to destroy us, close enough to define us and close enough to make us feel a little less cold.



Every once in a while you will come across someone who will rob you from your sleep and those are the people who are just too beautiful to put into words.

There are people who have been ignored and kicked around a few times, the ones the crowd will tell you to stay away from. Seek those people out, and find them; they are the ones who will change the world.

If we moved too fast, we'll break things. If we move too slow, we'll miss things. And if we don't move at all, we won't see things for how beautiful they truly are.


We were like astronauts, dreaming on the moon, telescoping the stars, exploring the skies and searching for the moments that took our away breath.

Don't think. it complicates things. just feel, and if it feels like home then follow its path.

Your gorgeous chaos was a danger to my beautiful ordinary life, and I knew that. Then suddenly, we became beautifully extraordinary together.

This is the last thing I want to tell you. I want you to put yourself first, no matter who you fall in love with. I want you to love yourself like it’s the only thing left to do. And lastly, I want you to find someone that will help you realize how important the first two things are. Your life should consist of making yourself happy before giving your laughter away to someone else.

Maybe she needed someone to show her how to live and he needed someone to show him how to love.



And what a foolish girl you were to put your heart in the lions mouth then cry when swallowed you whole.



Ranata Suzuki

She always felt lost...



She always felt lost and it was beautiful not knowing how she'd find herself. For everything she knew was a speck of something greater. And it was just a matter of time till all of her made sense.

Robert. M Drake

The truth is, she didn't need to be saved.



The truth is, she didn't need to be saved; she just needed to feel loved and know that someone out there craved her attention.
