Why must your soul float before my own

Some poetry I wrote… a little scared to share my poetry but I’m doing it anyway #poetry #poetry author #poetrywriter #poetryaesthetic

2025/1/3 Edited to

This article reflects a poignant exploration of emotions through poetry. The lines capture the delicate dance between love and the unknown, showcasing how our souls connect amidst life's uncertainties. Each stanza evokes imagery of warmth and vulnerability, illustrating a shared journey through intimate moments and reflections on existence. The phrase "Cessation into softness" speaks to the reprieve found in love, while "Beautiful are the gentle strokes of night" symbolizes the beauty and tenderness that can be discovered in dark times. The theme of looking away from the past serves as a reminder of the importance of living in the moment and cherishing the connections we forge. Poetry becomes a medium to unpack complex feelings, providing catharsis both for the writer and the reader. This piece encourages aspiring poets to share their inner thoughts, revealing the transformative power of words.
