Beautiful Poems

good day, everybody!

Feeling great? I presume you are- but that doesn't mean I am ( I feel quite content, however )

I want to touch on the topic of a few heart warming and relatable poems. I do really enjoy hearing or reading poems. And some of them are from TedTalks ( I enjoy watching them )
This is going to be quite a long blog post- I can admit that. We are going through 3 poems.


For the first one; 
Click it to watch the video. Decided to post the TedTalk version as it is longer and the beginning is really light so it prepares you for the actual poem.


Don't continue reading this until you watch the video. 
Okies. Honestly, I felt quite an impact ( much more like a pure over emotional trip that required a few tissues )   I felt the emotions I felt because I honestly can relate. I was bullied when I was much younger and I couldn't understand why. 

I wanted emphasise on a few lines, but it'd be too long so I'll choose one.



  • So we grew up believing no one would ever fall in love with us. That we'd be lonely forever
I absolutely love this line as it is absolutely TRUE. A person's words can deeply affect someone until an individual low in their life, even though they can still pursue love as they are amazing people.

The part about the mother absolutely touches me in the heart. I teared up and I won't really touch on that topic.



For The Second One
This is yet another spoken poem which my dear cousin introduced me to.

tad of a spoiler below
I'm not going to focus on any lines, as I have too many ( like in "To This Day" ) to choose ( it's an amazing poem if you hadn't notice, you couldn't choose just one line ).

This poem is about sometimes how we get so caught up in making and being surrounded by friends- you forget who you are and end up being someone your friends want you to be. Where you forget how to be alone and fear something that used to be so natural.

It's the little things that count but they make you so happy. ( like sitting on a bench and talking to strangers or maybe walking around a new and unknown place, trying to find your way with other souls in the peculiar place ) I absolutely love this poem and words cannot express it.

I think I'll stop here as I don't have the time to continue any time soon
Once I do, I'll introduce more okays.
Expect one from Sarah Key ;)

Love,

Bages
