Knowledge is knowing
I can write beautiful poetry
Say all the right words
To motivate you
and
To tell you all will be fine
Stay strong
Show up for yourself
And
focus on the things
that really matter
You’re perfectly perfect
In every way

But
Wisdom is knowing
No matter how many
Beautiful poetry I’ve written
To motivate you
I still may not reach
Your inner soul

Because wisdom
Is knowing that
Too many people
Are forever stuck
At the age of their
Worst trauma

Wisdom is knowing
The voices inside
Your head will always
Be the loudest

Philosophy is knowing
And
wondering if I too
May be a victim of this
Beautiful world called life
PTST= post traumatic stress disorder ,
Popular among Veterans but not exclusive to Veterans
Don’t minimize someone’s else’s trauma

Broken pieces of my heart
Are stuck together with you
Like a piece of art

Life is but a cruel, cruel maze
Of dead ends and nowhere lines
Prepare to hold tight
To the connection
Between your body
And your poetic mind

Off the tracks of life we stumble
The dice of love we tend to fumble
Thankful for another chance
Life is cruel but still we dance!

**** these violent black holes
Compressing each and every passing soul
****** through these eternities
By vacuums of unknowns

  On the other side where entropy awaits
There at the eventful horizon
Another big bang
At heaven's new gate

Hope is but a hypothesis
From an obsolete science book
Outdated in spirituality
Humanity is always
On the hook!

You are laying down in a field filled with daffodils
The birds are singing happy tunes
The sun is shining just for you
You are looking up into the sky thats filled with cotton clouds
The long growing grass is keeping you warm
The butterflies are dancing just for you
You feel safe
You feel at home

My darling, My love, My little daffodil
Let me wrap you in my arms to replicate that feeling
Let me kiss you slowly to send shivers of joy down your spine
I need you and I want you
To feel safe with me
To be at home
Our home

For a long time now I would write about my trauma caused by an ex boyfriend. I am over with that now.
I found a muse.

Poetry used to be something I could look forward to
Because when no one was here for me poetry was always excited to have me to talk to
I loved poetry because it was something that helped me vent
To help me express and control my feelings
To help me give me a purpose

Poetry is no longer someone I want to talk to
Because it has become more than a want
It has become more than a help
It has become a need

Poetry is something that I need now
Poetry is something that I need to cope with life
Poetry is the only thing that can help me express my problems
and I hate it


I hate it


I don't want this anymore
But I can't help it
Because when I realized I had this problem
the first thing I did was to write about it
I think this is the first poem I ever have written that doesn't directly talk about my depression... It is still me though

At this point
The only thing that can fix me
Is your lips pressed against mine.

I can't find the strength to write anymore.
I feel broken. I feel tired.
And I don't know how much longer I can take this for.
