Poetry Pages - Chapter 2

Updated: Jan 17, 2023

Hello there! Thank you for coming. I have started a thing where I write poetry prompts on a page and my dear, wonderful friends select a few, which then I have to connect and then make a poem out of. Easy enough, right? No, writing them is hard, and connecting them is even harder, but that is just my friends pushing me toward working harder. I hope so.

So without wasting any further time, on the Poems...

For S.M -

1. Hell is Broken


One day, when hell is broken, soon would be heaven,

'Cause, there is no good without evil,

'Cause, there are no funerals without deaths,

'Cause, there is waking up without sleep,

'Cause, there is no love without hate,

'Cause, there is no first without last,

'Cause, there is no life without death,


'Cause, there is no heaven with angels without

a hell for devils.


For N.A. -

2. Sometimes


Sometimes a lighted candle is better than a bulb,

Sometimes a single heartbeat is better than a heart full of them,

Sometimes caring a little is better than caring too much,

Sometimes it's better to leave love that causes pain,

Sometimes it's better to embrace hate that gives no harm,


Cause who cares about the thorns when the flowers bloom?

Who cares about me when he is happy!


3. New Beginnings


New Beginnings have courage,

No matter what your age,

It's like making a secret diary,

which anyone can find,

But who cares, not me,

Remember, some people are actually kind,

It's like making a painting,

With all your favorite colors,

Some may not like it,

but remember

it's yours!


For V.V. -

4. Perfect as a Picture


My life is as perfect as a picture,

The perfect weather every day,

Looking like it's going to rain tonight,

Every day is the perfect good day,

Every moment is full of joy,

Nothing ever sad,

Nothing ever bad,

My life is as perfect as a picture,


Isn't that a good thing to dream about?

When the actual picture lies shattered beside me?


For A.M. -

5. Lost Along the Way


To be lost along the way,

Pick up a book,

Time will just pass by,

No need to look,

A book, the best way to run away,

When in the real world,

You don't want to stay,

Audiobook, E- book, Newspaper or novel

Full of stories, words, sentences and vowels,


But let me tell you a better way,

Pick up a blank page,

Make up characters and write about them,

Put them on a stage


Do it,

And be lost along the way.


6. Death Comes


Death visits multiple times but kills only once,

Cause feelings and emotions are more fatal,

The Feeling of,

Drowning in the sea and water everywhere,

Dying of thirst in a desert.

Having poison in your throat, that kills you and stays there

when your choices lead to you stabbing,

Not being loved in return,

Even when you did carelessly,


So, ask me again, How did I actually die?

When we at last meet in the sky,

I promise I won't lie,

Until the next time, Goodbye...


For L.V. -

7. Dream


I once had a dream,

We were dancing in the clouds,

The Music was perfect, neither slow nor loud.

The Angels were playing the orchestra,

And our audience was heaven,

We had joy in our dance steps,

No room for error,

We looked so glamorous, like an artist's best painting.

With hope in love, we danced through the night,

Sadly, it was only a dream.


8. Frame


Some memories don't need to be preserved in a picture frame,

Because you remember the moment clear,

Like you are in it again,

The Moment that took away your smile.

The Moment you see how he was cruel and vile.

The Moment where everything stopped.

The Moment that shattered your life.

The Moment your heart was stabbed with a knife.

In The Beginning, when you start to smile,

You didn't know people would be cruel and vile.



For V.G. -

9. Better


The one who I thought would be the dream was a nightmare,

Would be my fate, was her's

That was I learned,

True Silence is better than fake pretty words,

No direction is better than the wrong direction,

Blunt Knife is better than a killing one,

True Hatred is better than False love.


10. Everyone Else


Sometimes you look around and see everyone glad,

No one crying or sad,

Everyone is sufficient,

While you are just enough,

Everyone full of desires,

While you feel like in a fire,

Everyone sleeping peacefully,

While your nights are heavy,

Days even heavier,

Everyone is true to themselves,

While you hope you can return to your true self.


That is all for today

Happy Reading
