Introspective Poetry Quotes

“Poem with Adjustments And I write out of worry,
I write out of fear,
I write for writing's sake,
And I drown in between these motives. I become a poet,
I become a lover,
I become a human, And still, I seek to become a writer. I become still in the seeking.”

“All The Ink I Wasted All the ink I wasted
Climbing up ivory pages and cursive titles
Of whoever asked to buy and sell -
Words and souls and hope and pain. All the nights I spent
Crying out to the world what I thought
Or blaming myself for not hearing back -
Worlds are crashing inside myself. All the fights I fought
Calming my strife to succeed and feel
Overwhelming hopes and dreams in spare -
Wondering if I write my fate or dare to seal. All the wasted words
Counting each number up I tried to spell
Only to be reminded of despair once again -
Worth is nothing nowadays with a price to sell.”
