Maybe it’s because we were never taught. We were never told— The things that matter. The words that make breathing better. The constant pacing of every thought. The lesson my soul taught my heart. —how sometimes it’s necessary to simply fall apart. How sometimes all we need is a fresh start. • • • • • • • #Durbanpoet #Southafricanpoet #rsm #anxiety #wordsmith #poetry #pumpkinnotes #canyounot #mentalhealthawareness #daisies #ScorpioSeason #afterlove #brokenpeopleclub #brokenhearts #soul #pure #Fall #tumblr #halloween #piecesofmyself #october #depression #functionaldepressive #littlepoems #blurred #mentalillness #wordart #thoughts #wastedtimes (at Durban, KwaZulu-Natal) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo6eq9ug4Vt/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=cghrqn6nsj1x

—the strangest thing, But when you’re upside down there’s always stranger things. like how you found me whole— In pieces, but whole. Held together by all the promises you told. Together we’d climb— Rise and Soar. —but upside down is what we were. And like a falling petal, we rose to the floor. All the times that felt so weightless— All the times we thought were soaring— Really we were clawing. Digging deeper. Carving in us all these holes. These endless cycles of tormented abyss. These blackened doorways that portal our minds. The empty echoes that whisper our names. —it’s the strangest things that connect our brains. 🎃 • • • • • • • #Durbanpoet #Southafricanpoet #rsm #anxiety #wordsmith #poetry #pumpkinnotes #canyounot #mentalhealthawareness #strangerthings #ScorpioSeason #afterlove #brokenpeopleclub #brokenhearts #soul #pure #Fall #tumblr #halloween #piecesofmyself #october #depression #functionaldepressive #littlepoems #blurred #mentalillness #wordart (at Durban, KwaZulu-Natal) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bow6xy2goAj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nnosnyv8yel1

Colors I’ve never seen, shades of blues and black in every tone. Pictures I’ve painted are now just lines on paper. Worlds I’ve drawn with words have faded on crumpled pages. Promises in poems I’ve erased. —but no, not broken. • • • • • • #Durbanpoet #Southafricanpoet #rsm #anxiety #wordsmith #poetry #pumpkinnotes #canyounot #mentalhealthawareness #piecesofapoem #ScorpioSeason #afterlove #brokenpeopleclub #brokenhearts #soul #pure #Fall #tumblr #halloween #piecesofmyself #october #depression #functionaldepressive #littlepoems #myheartisnotbroken #mentalillness #wordart #butno (at Durban, KwaZulu-Natal) https://www.instagram.com/p/BopOhcagN-o/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=olurfuw5byof

• • • My heart is not broken yet here I am, scribbling words that no one understands. Like a scratched record, my heart is not broken yet all these words conspire against it. Here I am—broken and breaking still. Here I am—leaking tears. slipping and falling—always catching myself. Forever saving my unbroken heart. Even if everything else is falling apart. • • • • • • #Durbanpoet #Southafricanpoet #rsm #anxiety #wordsmith #poetry #pumpkinnotes #canyounot #mentalhealthawareness #piecesofapoem #ScorpioSeason #afterlove #brokenpeopleclub #brokenhearts #soul #pure #Fall #tumblr #halloween #piecesofmyself #october #depression #functionaldepressive #littlepoems #myheartisnotbroken #mentalillness #wordart #butno (at Durban, KwaZulu-Natal) https://www.instagram.com/p/BopMTGXA19P/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=dwf8wbpd94w1

All of the colors. With every shade of hope. In every type of instance. Without too much weight pulling on your conscience. With this rope hanging off my shoulder. With just a little hesitation— I can’t call this falling. All this distance— I can’t say I haven’t thought of jumping. But I hope In all my mess I just hope I made you feel. • • @iam_ro_saiyan • • • • • #Durbanpoet #Southafricanpoet #rsm #anxiety #wordsmith #poetry #pinknotes #canyounot #mentalhealthawareness #stranger #didntmeanto #truelove #brokenpeopleclub #brokenhearts #soul #pure #falling #tumblr #emovibes #piecesofmyself #Itsallinmyhead #depression #functionaldepressive #littlepoems #someonesaveme #mentalillness #wordsarecool (at Durban, KwaZulu-Natal) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn6ZBtkAb2B/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=i5t02qrpfbgo
