41. He Asked Me If I Missed Him
He asked me if
I missed him
and I told him
no. Even though
my heart called
me a liar,
I could not give
the man who left
and took everything,
any more of me.
Not my feelings,
my memories,
or my regrets.
Featured Shared StoryRecovery can be the hardest thing we do, but it's always worth it.

43. She Makes Me Whole
I don’t think
she is perfect.
She is flawed and broken
like the rest of us.
But the pieces she has
left of her heart
match the pieces
missing from mine.
She is not perfect
but she does
make me whole.
Featured Shared StoryNone of us are perfect, but it's great when we find the perfect one for us.

44. A New Day
One day it will
dawn on you.
You have always
found a way to rise.
You are already
the miracle you seek.

You are worthy of peace.
Yes, one day it will
dawn on you just
how precious your
life is and that
you are worth
fighting for.

45. She Is Magic
She wildly dances
to the beat of her own heart
a strong and fearless protector,
she’s hauntingly beautiful
and dangerously smart.
Eyes filled with oceans
and a glimmer of pain,
but a soul with a compass
that points home
when it rains.
She’s visited darkness
and fought her way back
this girl is a warrior,
her spirit won’t crack.
A sense of humor to balance
how deep her heart bleeds,
she’s a radiant light,
that this dark world needs.
She is poised and she’s polished
but still can be rough,
she is one of a kind,
she is more than enough.Featured Shared StoryNo Stories yet, You can be the first!

46. Your Mindset
I am broken
don’t tell me that
I am healing
I am weak
don’t tell me that
I am strong
I am empty
don’t tell me that
My heart is slowly filling

47. This Is My Strength
When you left,
I immediately deleted your number and pictures
and pulled our memories from the wall.
This is my strength.
This is how I know I’ll survive.
I cried as I erased you,
but I erased you anyway.
I wished you back,
but I still opened my hands
and let you go.

48. You
You are
what I’ve been
searching for,
chasing after,
longing to find,
every star,
moonbeam
and dream,
all of every thing
so infinitely far away
and yet so intimately
here in my arms.

she runs her fingers

55. She Loved Him
She loved him without reason
and without cause
she loved him under water
and in the freezing cold of the deep winter months
she loved him in the dark
and beneath the starry sky
she loved his hands
and his innocent blue eyes
she loved his heart and how big it always seemed to be
she loved him even when things were a little stormy
she loved him before they knew each other’s name
and she will love him until
she takes her last breath
and her heart goes up in flamesFeatured Shared StoryNo Stories yet, You can be the first!

56. Hope
in Hope Poems
Hope can be found in the moment
when the sun breaks open the day
it can be felt when the stars shine
in the darkest part of the night
and when a flower has grown without rain

that ties the words together
when I write poetry
hope is the reason
you’ve survived
it lives between each heart beat
and it’s in the air you breatheFeatured Shared StoryNo Stories yet, You can be the first!

58. Life Will Bloom When It Is Ready
I keep pulling
on my roots
urging them to grow
impatient for the bloom
and the sunshine
and the growth
but it doesn’t work like that
tears flow, soil drenches and dries
there have to be some slower days
some rainfall, even snow
—life will bloom when it is ready

59. Aching Hearts
We talk a lot about broken hearts.
But oh,
what about the aching ones?
The hearts that are healing
but can’t escape the visits of the
cold, sharp
pain gripping their core.
The hearts that appear
whole again
but still experience
the waves of hurt
crash against their soul’s door.Featured Shared StoryNo Stories yet, You can be the first!

60. The Ones Who Feel Like Home
the ones who encourage you
during uncertain times
who stand with you
when no one else will
who hold you when you break
and pick up your pieces again
they are your people
