Poem#1
I believe your heart needs to be broken before you can truly understand what it means to be whole.
The ones who need to be held the most are often too busy trying to hold others with their broken arms.
But always smile with grace; even if your soul is sobbing.
Your sad eyes are the most precious pearl of the planet, keep storming into the great night, to the stars who listen. They are singing your name.
poem#2
Don’t hurt her, that even she stops loving herself, they claim roses are pretty but have you seen her scars?
All the stars were dying as her smile faded into the drift of the sea.
She was never sober but always tipsy on dreams, she was brutally broken yet elegant enough to fix a fallen star.
Whenever she touched the flower the garden smiles, the city was always drunk over her and she was still tipsy on moonlight.
Poem#3
My thoughts were destroying me. I tried not to think, but the silence was a killer too. I’m being murdered by my own mind.
I realized in time that in order to heal you would have to burn bridges to stop yourself from crossing them again
sometimes you have to accept when someone’s part in your story is over. What defines us all is how well we rise after falling.
Poem#4
She had galaxies in her eyes, electricity crackled within her. She was the girl who tamed the flames, she was the one who always survives in the end.
So much sadness in her silence, so many questions on her mind. Lips the color of blood, her hair tangled down to the roots of peace has forgotten her own name,
love has become a stranger. She dances when the clouds cry, she wishes upon the stars who die.
The word choice and descriptions in poem 2 were very well put together I was able to create an image in my mind almost like a painting that reflects the emotions.
I really enjoy how descriptive you made the tragic parts of your poem.
I found Poem#1 to be very relatable. In my experience it’s always the saddest people who will smile the brightest, not for themselves but for those who are around them. They will give the most and take the least. These are the people who find their path written in the stars.
I like poem #4, you did a good job fictionalized a character, and gave her the strength to fight in life, even though sometimes life does not return a good favor.
