Self Love Poems Quotes

“Self love can piece back what others tore
apart. - Nason Ray”
― Linda Greyman, Soul Works - The Minds Journal Collection

“Creativity is alive
And thriving in my body.
The energy you bring out in me
Is within me infinitely.
My power is overflowing.
My lips are soft and welcoming
To the exhale,
The new Braille,
The silence that persists
After our moans die away,
I look at myself and say,
"Root down so you can burn.
Beautiful girl, it's your turn
To create magic within yourself.
This time, without his help.
Find your roots and find your fire,
Be mindful of what you desire,
Persist in what you know is true,
Stay focused on the endless route
Toward your own potential.
Allow the existential
Void to swallow you whole.
Take on your old role:
The lone seeker.
Become quieter.
Become meeker.
Become the beauty that you seek.
Embody strength if you feel weak.
Find love within the walls
Of this sacred temple.
Let yourself shake and tremble,
But keep your eyes ever fixed
On the horizon
Where it's rising,
No revising,
Fears capsizing
As you sail, sail, sail
Toward the wail
Of your siren spirit
Beckoning you to bloom
The flower in your womb,
The seed of creativity,
Your triumphant legacy."
These words, I will carry
Within me as I bury
Grains of wisdom
In the whispers of the wind.
And when I arrive
To the altar of our origin,
I'll be dressed in white and black,
And I'll cradle that exact
Feeling left on our sheets.
And you'll be on your knees,
Ready to receive
The wholeness of my broken mind,
Pried open by
The sparkle gleaming in your eyes.
And your hands will be full
Of supple fruit and you'll
Smile at me, and I will see
That you have fed your hunger.
You'll ooze with courage and wonder.
And then, we will know
That we've already lost each other
A thousand times before.
And I have found you
As clear water after mud settles.
And you have found me
As a bee deep in a flower's petals.
We have danced before,
Pulled art out of each other's spines.
We have died and birthed and died.
We've already kissed a million times.
This wasn't our first five act play,
And it will not be the last.
So when I thirst for your hands,
I will sit and chant.
We will meet again.
We will meet again.”
― Vironika Tugaleva

“We are souls in the flesh
specters caught between
the limbo of yesterday and tomorrow
illusions of the present
imposters in these skins

I am rain blown sideways by the wind
My art, my love, my hunger slows the descent
I spread out like a shadow on the pavement
stomped on by what is, saved by what is not
but is and is not are so fickle

Reality and dreams dress up as one another
playing musical chairs in the mind
and if you are so lucky that a dream seizes
the throne and turns your mind into an imagination, do not revolt, do not resist

Become your madness
Become the fool”
― Connor Judson Garrett, Become The Fool

“When you don’t feel beautiful,
look at your true reflection.
You are a miracle made out of stars,
my love, you are stardust perfection.”
― Christy Ann Martine

“Self-love is an act of holy disruption.

To love yourself in a world that profits directly from your self-loathing is the ultimate subversion of all that seeks to keep you tame.”
― Jeanette LeBlanc
