The true democracy
Is when getting up in the morning brings the news

Justice has been delivered to the poor!

The problem of love;
it opens your eyes
just enough

To blind them.

I have worn this face for so long
And won in convincing my soul in this world i don't belong
A look i have spiced with a smile
With a glow that beckons from a mile
This is a camouflage of demons inside me
Poetry and lines with dirge theme
Deceiving mask of hapiness
Yet my heart echoes with emptiness
Behind this veil am spent and shattered
My sanity all over scattered

  My face is just a book cover
You need to peruse my chapters over and over
At the end of my story
You will choose to worry or be sorry
The truth will be full blown
Reality will dawn
My face is just a prison with no walls
Which confines my secrets and all ills
Behind every beauty there is a beast
Ready to devour and feast
On our true identity

There's no one. I repeat, no one can make you feel sad. It's only you who can control your feelings. I do understand why sometimes you blamed someone else for your sadness, emptiness or whatsoever negative feelings you have right now.

Maybe it was the only thing that made you happy after some time.

Listen to me. If he or she's gone, let it be. Let him be. Let her be. There are a few things that can actually help you get over it. Not to get over them, but indeed to get over yourself.

1. *Be grateful for every single thing that has happened in your life

-Be grateful you met them. Be grateful that you were maybe once loved, cheated on, stepped on, laughed at or whatever it is. *As long as it doesn't **** you physically, it only make you stronger emotionally.


2. Forgive them and continue to love them.
-The problem with moving on is people tend to hate the ones that hurt them. You can't. Once you fall, there's no turning back. That's why you move on after you fall in love. You can never undo the love. You can never climb back up. All you can do is to move on, continue loving them. Love is universal. I never asked you to stay. True love asks for  nothing in return.

3. Accept the past. Embrace it.
-The past cannot be changed. You can try to forget, but our minds tend to remember beautiful things. The past is indeed beautiful. Each and everyone of us has a different and unique past, and we should all sometimes think about it and learn from it. You will hurt more trying to forget it.

And more importantly, if you think no one loves you,

*I do.
I was thinking about this because I tried, and it worked on me. Hope this helps. Love you guys and I'm sorry if this is not a poem xD

We all have something
Or someone

Who brought us here
Into poetry.
Mind sharing? I'd love to know. Comment below! :)
I am darkness
Bleeding out
Into nothingness
I am pain
A grimace
A torturous contortion
This portion
Of my psyche
Fractured
I can't see
Repair
Yeah,
Right.
Tonight
My heart
Was ripped apart
I am
Blank
Is this sufficient?
Is it enough to see?
Have I told you enough
About me?

Rosé makes me romantic
I guess
Because it's pink
And it makes me tipsy
Like love should
I guess...
And it reminds me of
The wilting pink roses
On my coffee table
Cute love
I guess...
It becomes less than cute
Because
I bought those flowers
For myself
Oh, by the way.
