Poetryofthesoul Stories

A raw poetic journey through self-blame, betrayal, and isolation. This piece dives deep into the soul's silent suffering and the longing for release from emotional captivity.

In these poems, I meditate on the mysterious and Divine purpose to the existence of beautiful things. Created beauty...the painting...is but an echo and reflection of the Creator and Divine Artist "One thing I have desired of the Lord , That will I seek: That I may...behold the beauty of the Lord." ~Psalms 27:4 "Let Your work appear to Your servants, And Your glory to their children. And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us..." ~Psalms 90:16‭-‬17

Poems about God's redemption in my Struggle with Porn

Because we live in a broken, fallen world, the feeling of wanderer is easy to come by. And the broken world does not necessarily become easier for the one who becomes God's child. You have probably had at least one season (if not multiple seasons) where you felt as a "wanderer". You live and walk through life moment by moment, day by day, year by year and yet find that you're not sure where you're headed and feel like you carry your cross and struggle with life, alone. Yet all of this must find its end at the feet of the redeeming hope of God's truth. For the Christian, this feeling is deeper because he knows that, despite the unknown and uncertain life and future that stretches before him, he is not really walking through life aimless, helpless and directionless but rather being led and guided by the unseen God; the Father in Heaven. I have written this book to share with any and all those who feel like they're alone in their life and their walk after God. In my imperfect poetry and heart, I have sought to reflect and display this truth of God: That we have tangible hope (assurance) to have and hold in this life and keep us in our walk before Him. If you have seen the path before you as uncertain... If you have found yourself a lonely and struggling traveler through life... Or have felt yourself like a leaf being carried by an unseen wind... Then my book is for you. So grasp the Father's tender hand and let Him lead you through the shadows and light of your life...through His valley of vision. === Cover Art by Maria Oosthuzien (South Africa) [Facebook, Instagram, Google Images]

Situationship heartbroken poem.

She told me how the skies called to her, how the birds wanted to teach her to glide She told me how, when the waves crashed and the tide pooled around her legs, she could feel them tugging too She told me how, when the sun set, and the night settled in All she desired was to disappear under a black blanket of darkness She told me how she could hear wolves howl in the moonlight, crying for her to 'come home' She told me how the burning stars taught her how to shine in pitch black and How, sometimes, her own shadow seemed to move towards another world, too Suddenly, one day, she disappeared with the waves And when the tide washed her footprint too I thought to myself that possibly she was right all along, and maybe just maybe, she wasn't meant to be here with humans at all I felt the sun shine a little brighter, and the stars smile in the night And as the birds flew to their nest, I heard a howl in the moonlight Maybe she is finally 'home' But then, soon after, what I noticed shocked me to my very core I felt the sky whisper to me And when the birds flew to their nests, I felt like following them too How the ocean sings to me a lullaby, and I stand at the shore, calm, and when the sun painted the sky orange, I felt the need to fade away too Finally, I knew I was just like her when my own shadow didn't follow me 'home'

"Maybe eventually was here all along." A raw, reflective journey through heartbreak, self-awareness, and healing. Inspired by the lyrics of Calvin Harris' "Sweet Nothing" and Tame Impala's "Eventually" and "Breathe Deeper," this poem unravels the pain of giving yourself away without ever truly offering anything to yourself in return. This is a reflection on survival. The quiet moments that felt like strength. The ways we try to fill our cracks with love we never thought we deserved. It's about learning how to breathe again. About rebuilding from the inside out. And maybe, just maybe, realizing we were always becoming who we were meant to be.

"Some days, it feels like the world moves on without you. You carry memories, pain, and grief that no one else can see. You talk to yourself in the quiet, to the walls, to the night, trying to make sense of it all. You've lost people, places, and pieces of yourself along the way, and sometimes it feels like there's no one to notice or understand. But even when your mind is hazy and your heart heavy, there's a spark inside that refuses to die - a flicker of strength that keeps you moving forward. This poem is for anyone who has felt alone in their own head, who has screamed into the void, who has survived another day when it felt impossible. You are not invisible. You are not forgotten. You are still here, still fighting, and that matters more than anyone can tell you. Even in the storm, even in the haze, you are enough. And some days, surviving is the bravest thing you can do."

Poems on those created in the Image of God (Acts 17:24-30)

A piece of spiritual-meditative poetry with a strong philosophical and mystical tone. Theme of Oneness - It emphasizes unity between self and the divine, removing the sense of distance. The divine presence isn't "out there" but alive within. Reflective & Guiding - It reads almost like spiritual counsel or inner wisdom being spoken aloud, gently instructing the reader not to imprison themselves mentally but to align with higher truth. Biblical Resonance - Phrases like "Seek, and you are already found. Ask, and the answer rises within. Knock, and the door is open" echo scripture, giving it a psalm-like cadence. Philosophical Depth - The poem grapples with how thought shapes reality ("as a man thinks, so he becomes"), blending spiritual insight with mental discipline. Mystical Imagery - The mountain, Golgotha, the guiding light-all create a sense of sacred symbolism. Tone - Calm, meditative, uplifting, and intimate-like a blend between poetry, prayer, and mantra.

Because even the wildest hearts fall to their knees when the light fades. Set against the silence of open skies and the ache of everything left unsaid, Even Cowboys Cry at Dusk is a collection of poems about the kind of love that lingers, long after the dust settles. These pieces speak of men who run from what they feel, women who burn too bright to stay, and the ghosts that follow when pride lasts longer than tenderness. It's the quiet heartbreak of wide horizons and empty beds, of longing that hums like a train in the distance. Told in the language of wind, whiskey, and unspoken truth, this book captures the raw, cinematic ache of being human, the way we love, lose, and carry what never really lets go. For the ones who loved too hard. Left too late. And still feel it when the sun goes down.

"It's been a while... yet, my heart still calls for you. A story of love that never happened, yet somehow feels eternal."

Poems about waiting on the Lord to fulfill His promise and your purpose "Trust in the Lord , and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.

He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your justice as the noonday. Rest in the Lord , and wait patiently for Him..." ~Psalms 37:3-‬7 "...Then you will know that I am the Lord , For they shall not be ashamed who wait for Me." ~Isaiah 49:23
