1. A Place To Be
Ever gotten there?
To that place where
You have nothing to prove
and can just be.
A short poem may be a stylistic choice or it may be that you have said what you intended to say in a more concise way. Either way, they differ stylistically from a long poem in that there tends to be more care in word choice. Since there are fewer words people tend to spend more time on choosing a word that fits the subject to perfection. Because of this meticulous attitude, writing a short poem is often more tedious than writing a long poem.
Ever gotten there?
To that place where
You have nothing to prove
and can just be.

You were beautiful
before they said, you are beautiful
You were smart
Live with it
long enough
and pain begins
to feel familiar,
There is
a strength in you

So true in that we really don't know how one will react until one has been there and has done it! Suffering is an important life experience. Great poem, thanks.
You are enough
You have always been enough, and
You will forever be
Enough
Beautiful Girl,
you don’t even realize
that some people
look at your madness
Try as I may, try as I do,
there are days when I wish
I could go back
to the girl I used to be
You can be unhappy and still be in love.
You can be in love and still walk away.
You can walk away and still feel the weight of loss.
You can feel the weight of loss and still stand tall.
one day
it will be so clear –
what you thought
was the end,
You have come so far,
trekked forward
shedding layers of
everything that
It’s the simple things
that bring me joy
it’s being with you
that fills my soul
Wow! Good job. Sometimes hindsight will have us saying "What if?" And in the final review of an ended relationship, there may have been something else we could have done to make things work...
I caught snowflakes
on my fingertips
but they melted
to my dismay.
Awesome. When more of us realize that, the better off we all will be. I really like this poem.
I used to believe
that I had to learn
how to love myself
before I could take care
When you stop trying
to fit into a world
that you don’t belong to anymore,
you grow
I believe the beating in our hearts
was put there to remind us
that even when we feel alone in the world,
a part of us marches on,
There is no reason to feel troubled
if your path has not been made clear to you yet.
When you remain true to your spirit,
courageous in action,
