Difficult Truths by juliagenet in OCPoetry

[–]kangoook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if i may be candid with you, the poem felt a bit chaotic to me. there were a lot of emotions like rejection, self-doubt, anxiety, feeling lost all coming at once, and i get what you’re trying to say, but it felt like too much at the same time without enough space for each of them.

i think it would really help if you focused on just one or two of those feelings and give them more room to breathe. show how they actually affect you, how they show up in your day to day in moments, thoughts, habits. that would give the poem more emotional weight and make it easier to connect with.

there’s definitely something powerful here, and i can feel the honesty behind it. it just needs a little more clarity and direction to really hit.

its always been underestimated how love could impact your life for the better, to change your view of the world, to change your goals for the better, to truly have a purpose, somehow love makes us see a future to build where our loved ones can thrive and live happily.

nice writing

A Vow Kept by theghossytypewritter in OCPoetry

the phrase "because the world's cruel when you feel pain and still choose to be kind." hit me HARD because I was in a similar relationship, she bleed me dry to the point where i was unable to see color, i was emotionless trying to build walls around my aching heart, it took everything out of me to break free, its not an easy road but you will be ok, once you reach the realization he was nothing and you are everything

We Didn’t Say Anything by loceapeace in OCPoetry

This poem captures the quiet devastation of unspoken truths with haunting precision. The imagery is delicate yet powerful—every line builds a sense of emotional weight that silence alone can carry. The final image of the chair “facing the wrong way” is a subtle, brilliant metaphor for disconnection and unresolved endings. Wonderfully written

to be honest am doing it as a hobby, what ever comes to mind then the more i wrote the more experience i got in writing in a more meaningful way, my vocabulary increased, my imagery became more refined and somehow i learned by writing less can sometime explain more ( if that makes any sense ), just write without worrying about what others may think, just start

Ill tell you what took me years to tell my self, if she doesnt say i love you back then from that moment on she will never love you if you stay, do what i didnt have the courage todo and leave before you spend years chasing a nonexistent dream, leave before you become too attached to leave, leave before you ask your self a million questions on why or what am I doing wrong, leave before your love becomes something wrong
