Poetry Quote by robert m drake — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Suddenly I remembered that laugh, it told a different story, our story.”

“I know how you feel because I’ve been there too. I’ve hated and I’ve loved. I’ve seen my demons root and crawl and my angels branch and soar. I've died within myself and lived a thousand different lives. I too fight the same war and I too am drowning in the puddles of self-consciousness this world created.”

“Broken hearts, you can run, you can hide and perhaps the earth is big enough to believe you’re safe. So maybe for a moment you have escaped but hear me, hear me well. Love will find you and it will leave nothing behind.”

“Maybe love was meant to save us from ourselves.”

“I had to learn to live without you and I couldn't make sense of it, because I left so much of me inside of you.”

“Maybe I hope too much. Maybe I dream too much or maybe I love too much to just give up on you.”

“A voice that had traversed the centuries, so heavy it broke what it touched, so heavy I feared it would ring in me with eternal resonance, a voice rusty with the sound of curses and the hoarse cries that issue from the delta in the last paroxysm of orgasm.”

“Hey you, dragging the halo-”

“The Quiet World”

“When Great Trees Fall”

“Art takes time—”

“a woman will tell you”
