He was always the poet, never the poem. She was always the artist, never the art. But he was her art, and she was his poem.

I just wrote a small poem: Am I too soft or is love too hard? Or is it just because I feel too much even though I'm empty and numb? So what is the point of having a heart? The point of having a heart is to pump your blood through your weins not to catch feelings for someone who would easily let you bleed out - just a random sad person to another random sad person

Somehow this reminds me of the artist / author Jane Davenport: Beauty follows her footsteps and within grace she diffuses, telling everyone to keep shining their light, while she is poetically shining hers. Love the Art / Artist / Muse as one. Yes, and I do think it is her, also.

I, the poet? I once read poetry, and thought: what a weight to feel so deeply as these poets do, to seek the slightest relief through bleeding ink. Yet, here I am now, scribbling my burdens and emotions, ink seeping through every page, trying to remedy my heavy heart.

I will share very bad poetry with you, that I wrote seaside some years ago: Poetry doesn't come to me, Nor lyrics of a song. One must feel an urge to tell the world how best to get along. Or one's feelings must flow fiercely Surging upward as a wave, Or a flare, perhaps, to warn of sadness, Or desire that one craves. Why is it that the deep and still Seem driven then to write, As if the act of writing Were the only outlet for their life? Songs for words they cannot say Poems for love they cannot show, While others live life fully Spilling lyrics as they go? If there are two types of writers-- The volatile, the still-- Then one is light, the other dark, But both are richer, still, Than those who never had a feeling Strong enough to pen As a legacy to others, Or just to feel one day again.

Just a short story 😁 POV: You’re sitting in the back of your boarding school library and hear the faint melody of a violin in the distance. You look around surprised by the lovely melody, but you continue reading your book thinking it must be coming from another room. But you’re in a library how could the swift notes be hitting your ears? You get up and let your ears lead you through the bookshelves finding the violin growing louder and louder until the music becomes so clear you can pick apart each beautiful note. It was almost like it was right next to you. You leaned your head against the books closest to the music. It’s a secret room! But how to get in? You start to feel the bookcase looking for a latch or a door nob to pull. The violin ends and you hear gentle clapping and small chatter. Your hand feels an all too sturdy vase on a top shelf. You lift the heels of your feet and pull the vase. “Yes!” You say as you hear a satisfying click. As the bookcase opens into a door, you’re fueled with curiosity until you slowly open the door and realize the mistake you just made as a small society of schoolmates stares back at you. This is my first time writing publicly so please don’t hold back any critistsim I need the tips!🥰

This is lovely! It pulled me right in from the beginning, because I love the faint sound of strings, especially in open air, but the thought of them in a library is wonderful. A secret room! The writing holds such promise. Except that instead of the disappointment of finding a group of schoolmates, I do think that Kilmeny of the Orchard should be in there, in a pale blue dress, with apple blossoms in her hair, her violin in hand, in her new life in the larger world, and she, who at first could not speak, turns slowly to you and says secret words of life . . .perhaps she is gently instructing a small secret society, yes.

"He had never heard anything like it; and, somehow, he felt quite sure that nothing exactly like it ever had been heard before; he believed that that wonderful music was coming straight from the soul of the unseen violinist, and translating itself into those most airy and delicate and exquisite sounds for the first time; the very soul of music, with all sense and earthliness refined away. It was an elusive, haunting melody, strangely suited to the time and place; it had in it the sigh of the wind in the woods, the eerie whispering of the grasses at dewfall, the white thoughts of the June lilies, the rejoicing of the apple blossoms; all the soul of all the old laughter and song and tears and gladness and sobs the orchard had ever known in the lost years; and besides all this, there was in it a pitiful, plaintive cry as of some imprisoned thing calling for freedom and utterance."

Love is a cruel companion When you expect it the least, Love lights you up, Makes you think you have found life - Life in its purest essence Makes you forget yourself Makes you care When there is no going back, Love stabs you, Right into the stomach Drains the life out of you Makes you realize you haven't found life - Life has left you long ago When you bleed, Love doesn't stitch your wounds It makes them burn Burn with the pain of caring Until you crumble into pieces That's when love decides to be a villain

Goodness, this is so painfully true, but feels good, too, the way only raw, painful truth can do. Clear and concise and beautiful.

Definitely agree! One of the most wholesome communities out here to be honest

I hear these songs, they tingle my note of truth, yet the girls walk, strutting out the bar door to another. Yet I wonder if it was I they walked into the next room to. Would we see exactly what we wanted to see? An eternal sand chest of treasure opening to me? Or would be yet another voice, continuously bothering another

24:28 it's like you love someoneso so wholly and find someone so beautiful that it wreckes your whole being and takes away all your pride. and your love is just painfully there without the slightest hope of ending and is reflected in your every thoughts and everything you see. and you are utterly helpless. and she knows it. and then she is there, so beautifully, she is so unbelievably beautiful its gut-wrenching and then sometimes she looks back in your eyes for a single moment. and you know she knows. and she is so beautiful, abused and hurt, bleeding out in the open, abandoned, full of scars, hatefully destroying herself while searching for your eyes for that one moment. she knows it and she knows and she cant reciprocate and your heart is already in pieces but you are still unable to look away.

who caused the poet in me to die? or was it never meant to live? i cannot comprehend; was i a better poet when i was a free soul, when i had wings to fly but no reason to weep and pull them out, when i smiled till my eyes squinted? or now, when the sorrow in my heart has weighed me down? when i was the mesmerising aura everyone wanted to be around? or when i am cornered like a dark grey shadow of misfortune? when my hands quivered with excitement? or now, from the ghosts of trauma? when my laughter would fill the room and i would not hesitate? or now, when i suffocate myself with my hands and hide my thoughts on sheets of papers to find some solace? when i did not have to seek reasons to be content? or now, when i have to calm my poor soul and trick it into believing that my mind is not weathering, it's not out of control, and i won’t be the mad king in history? when mothers used to adore me? or now, when mothers in hospital corridors drag their kids out of my reach? when i wrote because i couldn't measure the love pouring out of my veins? or now, when my eyes cannot contain the tears they have long beheld? is the poet in me just sprouting? or has its bones too dissolved in the soil it is buried in?

Here is one for you, taking the gaelic meaning of your name, both of which are lovely, by the way, the name and the meaning. I hope you do not mind that it doesn't rhyme . . . Addy, they called her. To me, she was always Adaira: oak tree ford. clear, shimmering water, splashing playfully in the shallows hiding her depths, then revealing them in the sunshine and shadows cast by the lime-green leaflets of towering springtime oaks strong in their beauty delicate in their tender new equinoctial life like her spirit: deep, yet sparkling strong, yet tender ancient wisdom of oaks playful clear sunlit wavelets all of these are her, my precious Adaira.

This music is so beautiful, it centers me and helps me write. I keep getting told that I have“an old soul” while still being in the spring of my life. My hairdresser specifically tells me this every time I see her. I laugh along and brush it off in confusion, but tonight I really understand what she means. Since we’re both very spiritual, we discuss things like rebirth and dreams being a gateway to lost memories. Oftentimes I think back on the dreams I have, the people I see and interact with and love in my dreams are people who I don’t know while awake, yet it feels like I’ve known them for a lifetime. Oftentimes I’ll remember something that never happened, reading a letter in neat cursive while sitting on a beach on a gloomy morning or icy cold water as I struggle to breathe. At this point in my life, I now have a whole cardboard box filled with poetry and short stories, most about these lost people and memories, that I’ve typed out on my grandfather’s typewriter.

Your words here, all so lovely, but what took my heart was that you typed them out on your grandfather's typewriter. That is what is missing from my life: an old typewriter, and I would like a dial phone, too, that really works. And an old manual Singer sewing machine, until my home becomes a living museum and I feel at home there. Can it be that the Unseen is all that matters and the visible is all to be flushed? Flushed from our affections and chosen seeing, what we choose to see and love. All from our dreams and art and from other artists is alive, then "out there" seems to kill it all and we just have to refill again. Regarding an Old Soul, have you watched the videos by The Cottage Fairy? Everyone is always saying that about her in the comments . . .

I feel the same way, about the spirits who are drawn to this fern-and-birch encircled, fairy-enchanted, spring-fed watering hole.

This playlist awakened some sort of story in me, and I decided to capture that in a poem! Here it is. :) The Poet - (roughly) a Kyrielle To pick my pen is but a chore; to set my lamp and write words bores The yellow-tinted light reflects on Always the poet, never the poem What I long for: a poetic partner One who writes of me as I write of departure. But newly, not nearly as ho-hum Always the poet, never the poem Shall I write for loved ones or foes? Or a note of what stands me on my toes? I ponder, there, in the glow of the lamp. Always the poet, never the poem Life: living, breathing, leaving When shall I write a thanksgiving, a letter, to that person-the one Always the poet, never the poem I shall meet, someday, thee beneath a grand willow tree The one who writes of me; always the poet, never the poem. Note: It's from the perspective of a poet who is kaput because other poets admire them, but never write about or appreciate them enough. The narrator (poet) longs for a partner to write with, but there are grim chances of that happening. By the way, (if you read to the very end) thank you so much, beautiful soul!! I know the poem is kind of long and not that well-written, but I hope you enjoyed it nonetheless.

"Your words are filled with such authenticity" that's what happens when you are forced to sit with hurricanes in times of loneliness. They forge such a deep feel of grave to everything around you. Your words start to sound poetic that people tend to miss the sharpness around it. They swoon and remark your pen skills yet the delight to your words is not what you wanted them to see. Like a fool who remarks a renoir fragment because its really defined, they fail to hear the silent cries and tears behind the art. You say you have an eye for art, leisurely you pick at people who feel deeply for simple things and can't even feel a thing towards your own self. Aesthetically you are pleased and the void in you screams at the lack of understanding of what's before you. I am not just a poet, I rage the lines of different worlds and bring them together for those who relate.

Life is so strange: so many trying to hide, so many trying to be seen, then once seen, wishing they could hide again, because the eyes that see them really cannot see them at all, but are only hands that greedily grasp for false reasons. Best, perhaps, to do as you suggest, to shine your light out there for others on their paths, and remain unseen behind it, self-forgetful.

why is it that I'm always the poet but never the poem; when I looked in your eyes I thought I was home. is it really love when all I did was give? you made me feel loved at least I thought you did. I was afraid that all you would do was take, I was afraid of our love and what we could make. I wanted to protect you from everything. my sadness, my sorrows, my suffering. I wonder what do I look like in your eyes, Am I the villain who always will be no matter what could arise? yes I still love you but that's why I'm gone, you deserve more than this heart full of thorns. Why am I so fascinated by you? "he's just a boy." how I wish that were true. he was my first love, woven together with those amber eyes. he's calm and serene. Damnit why do you still care when I've been nothing but mean?! How do I love you when you've been such a stranger? I try to get to know you but all you do is linger.

(I have no idea) I walk behind you quiet, not a word uttered Staying behind, away from the laughing crowd of a happy family Because I do not belong to this family--blood may be our tie, but our souls certainly never interwine in any dimension Please do not think of me ungrateful, or a bore, or even a chore, though I suppose your thoughts are so My stay to your side and your huddle of endless laughter is forever postponed For, though your kindness is great, and your love mighty My heart is fragile, my soul is disappearing, and the tears in my eyes had established themselves far before you had arrived Do not blame yourself for my distance Do not doubt your kindness because of an expression that has been sewn onto my face since I was young I am a machine to you that requires distance, but in truth desires your undivded attention So, please do not make the little person in your head run in cirlces, checking every corner, every crevice, and every crack Because you will not find a certain answer, perhaps maybe one that will leave you with more questions So, let me walk behind you Let me stray from your bubble of happiness Let me cry, let my anger flow, and let the sadness in my eyes stay I am, after all, a vessel of emotions, happy or sad, good or bad, they are mine

I'm thinking about that title, brother or sister. really makes me think, Idk...and whatever you mean by it, there is a sense of not wanting to *be* (or end up) as one of my songs or poems in me. on a few levels actually. for one, poems are lying on the road of life, while you keep driving. I wouldn't wanna lay there, too. thrown out the window. secondly, not just looking at how you'll move on, the stories that those poems tell may be of scenarios you wouldn't wanna be imprisoned in forever anyway. not even the rather sweet ones. an endless vacation of bittersweet joy, cakes, candles, daisy chains and laughs would make you miss the other facets of your longings, your sorrows, your memories, your hopes. you'll always wanna miss someone, you'll need to weep now and then. and thirdly I wouldn't want to be abandoned in a shelf by the loving hand that made me. so, I guess there's a few reasons to be disconnected from one's poetry...and now's the part where I feel like I sould say "but there's more reasons not to", but this isn't a story, it's me, typing along to your playlist after being moved by your video's title and subsequently being drawn in completely by the great tracks you chose. this video ran for almost half its runtime now and those were thoughts that your title made me think, just let go. thank you for making me feel this way and for causing me to think these thoughts, much love from Kiel in northern Germany ❤

This is not really related to the title or anything... I just thought I'd share this while listening to this music. Last year I met the most wonderful girl. Funny, beautiful, kind, with similar interests as mine. she was kinda perfect. (She had her flaws of course but everyone has them, it's what makes us human. But she was still perfect to me.) the last year was just amazing. we were spending most of our time together: doing our hobbies together, talking for hours until one of us fell asleep (her most times haha), we knew each other like we were literally the same person. A month ago, she broke up with me. Not because she doesn't love me anymore, or she found someone better, no. She broke up with me because she and her family are moving out of state and she is too fucking afraid to even try long-distance relationship! No matter how hard I tried to make her realize "we can make this work!" she wouldn't listen. Now she's not here anymore, and I'm broken. I miss her so fucking much. I miss her touch, I miss her scent, I miss listening to records together in my bed, I miss watching my favorite movies with her. I'm depressed. I stopped crying after about a week but I can't stop thinking about her. I go to sleep hugging my pillow and just thinking about her and our conversations trying to remember her voice. I started to think about killing myself a couple days ago... I just can't really go on like this. I know that "it'll get better", and "time heals all wounds" - that's what everyone's been telling me. But she was perfect! It's so hard to find someone who's perfect for you these days in this mad world... and I found it and she fucking gave it up. I'm doing my best to keep going but I continue to imagine myself going one night to the sea and just swim as far as I'm able to. Sorry if I ruined someone's day haha just wanted to share this.

You are going to have to fill your life to get through this, even though it will have to be with lesser things: get a weird second job, take an art class, get a pet, take a vacation to a place that feeds your soul (for me, mountains and forests are the best). Light candles, play this music, make your own cappucino. We cannot help being a ripped-to-shreds fragment of a relationship, but the shredded fragments, the walking pain, the haunted or even dead eyes, the ravaged face must be needed on earth, too, or we wouldn't be here.

Said ever so gently: she was not perfect for you, or she wouldn't have left. I know that deep in your heart, you must know this. "If you love something, set it free. If it returns to you, it is yours. If it doesn't, it never was." For heaven's sake, please do not kill yourself. Show up for yourself here. Enjoying your own company only is far better than being dead.

Siempre el poema. "El poeta es un fingidor" (Pessoa)

He is speed I am balance - Forest Beware of what you heed, Choose wisely the thoughts you feed, There is no bad in your darkest wraith, Nor goodness in your deepest faith, But are you certain of the freedom you think, Is it putting you high, or making you sink, Are you losing your mind on your funeral wreath, Or rather aware of what's on your breath, Every thought in your mind is kind of a seed, Have you assured the roots of all of your needs ? With certainty can you claim fatherhood, Or comes it certainly from all other woods. A lifetime is barely enough, To fathom how truth is fair as is rough, Hence subtle, complex and deep, Layers after layers endlessly indeed, The devil is not only a foe, It's also a guide who should not be followed, He lies in blood he lies in fame, Thirst and greed bezels of its flame, The bird of Hermes is one of his name, Eating his wings to make evil tame... When we dislike the taste of our fruits, We should be brave to follow the roots. The truth seeker must be agile, Not with his head, within his mind, Should asks his heart if he's fragile, And be prepared to what he might find... He is speed I am balance - Yggdrasil Sour seems to taste some of Her kisses, Sharp as a knife to shorten Her own pieces, Poor feelings yet rely on Her wisdom, Finding in Life a tool to sharpen our freedom. Overcome Life without any pain, Does not ensure the fastest lane, Resistance leads to strength and glory, Without it could we say «Now I'm happy» ? Declining gloom and sorrow Does not make the path less narrow, Well and wrong are only matter of perceptions, As any song has up and down for vibrations, Denying doom and shadows Withhold Gardens bloom in meadows, Have you played and drew the best from your cards, In a landscape game inside your yards, Even the greatest bird Comes from a nest, Now free in wind's Verb Mother tree was also a test, As well as the prettiest flower Dwelling with dirt and worms, It is terms of power To blossom first through storms. There is no line you cannot cross, To reach despair or pursue bliss, Are you choosing to feed your loss, Rather than fight for inner peace, Neither mean, or shy, Your true nature is kind, An eye for an eye, and the whole world goes blind. He is speed I am balance - Bird Only real eyes witness true dies, And realize weakness through lies, Behold on what you idealize, Brittle's the home from other's tiles, It is easy to wear a disguise, To be lazy, and mesmerized, It'll suits you sunset to sunrise, Here is a clue, it is not at your size, Fooled when too large but comfortable, When very small you won't be able To grow your own way, original skin, No better or worst than one of your kin, Remove the mud you've kept in your glass, You're not a slug crawling in grass, But a flourishing bud, fresh and green, Delighted to hug to dispel the spleen, Under The Light, His Presence within, Walking bare feet would be wiser, Son Is stillness, the Father Is moving, Accepting you're lost to finally find Her, Whether on Earth or lost in the void, Hide in the heart, must be unfolded, The sleeping sprout in every Man's chest, More than a quest His plan is a fest ! Moving forward, learn and laugh, then take action, Here, request has never been for high perfection, Though, «You won't seek...« once said Rumi, «If you would have not already found me.» He is speed I am balance - Akasha Dust, made of Silver Lights, Lust, one of your inner fights, Trust, ruled by a Golden Star Must to fly high, jump and dive far, But there is no space and there is no time, Follow your pace, dime after dime, The sum is in your mirror reflection, One takes you in cosmic affection, Beyond sounds and human's words, Father and Sons wield the same sword, You need no ears even less books, Life gives you more than what really took, Its name is Always, Its birthday never, Without It within you, you won't be clever, Its address nowhere, yet in each atom, The realm of a smile and you will feel at home, Candles on the shelf, It's always Its birthday, You might find Yourself, Following Its birds way

Good heavens. I am sitting down with this later and pondering every line. I am so serious.

"Overcome Life without any pain, Does not ensure the fastest lane" And . . . "Are you choosing to feed your loss" "Every thought in your mind is kind of a seed, Have you assured the roots of all of your needs?" These and so many more phrases, I love here. Thank you for sharing.

i noticed that everybody's sharing their poems, and i have nowhere to put mine, so i hope it's ok: i just can't imagine, how you could be so okay, that i'm gone? even though it is a lie and you will always be the one i sit and stare at you at us at our photo why do i care so much when it was supposed to be for fun? though is it just me? who cries all night writing poetry? it's sad and confusing if i should wait and hope for you to see that i'm still here or just to forget you, knowing how impossible that would be the person who seemed as the worst option "not my type" turned out to be the only one i wanted near myself to see it's crazy how i have to love you in silence, cuz i only hear the voices in my head how i was wrong, it's all my fault, all of that was me

I don’t earn anything from ad revenue, all this money goes to the record labels that are copyrighting my videos

Nice grammar. Even though as a grammar nazi I’m sure those brackets are being misused *cough* cough*

Not rlly a poem but enjoy For once, what if I was the one on paper? The one that gave the paper meaning. The ink words written in cursive letters. What if I was the one directed to those words? For once, what if I were the poem?
