Poetry Time✒📜

I always find beauty in pain.

Comfort in panic,

I favor yin over yang.

But maybe I prefer the dark,

and what lurks in the shadows,

because the only thing that can come next,

is the sunrise of tomorrow.

The most painful tears i’ve cried,

came from the ones I loved the most.

I feel the most light and love,

from the darkest of ghosts.

The most beautiful people i’ve met,

have hearts with spots of black..

because they took the pain from others,

and relieved them of the cracks.

The kindest hearts,

have the deepest scars.

But no one ever sees,

the light side of the dark.

No one watches fireworks in the day,

they wouldn’t even notice the spark.

So maybe I don’t linger in the shadows,

because I love the pain.

I always come back,

for the beauty it contains.

YIN - the light side of the dark

but it’s gonna make me happy to see that you’re better.

I miss the sound of your voice.

It fuckimg hurts bro!

Why couldn’t you just love me the way you say you do, huh? Why!?

Fuck you for hurting us. The both of us.

You’ve caused this pain. Not me.

I want you

I need you

But I know I can live without you.

I just wish I didn’t miss you so damn much rn Leandro. It hurts me.
