It makes me sad that Hemingway wrote so fiercely about what hurt him, and was still so depressed that he killed himself.

Here's a poem by JP White that's more my speed:
IAmInGreatPainPleaseHelpMe
The first time I made coffee for just myself I made too much of it, but I drank it all just cause you hate it when I let things go to waste.
IAmInGreatPainPleaseHelpMe
No punctuation cause well... character limit.

Ah yes, Frank Kafka who wrote 'The Trail', detailing the events of the life of Josef Que.
JulianPlowden
Thank you for being the other one to notice, it was driving me insane.
TheBatleyTownswomensGuild
It worried me no one else had picked up on it. I googled 'Frank Kafka' to make sure I wasn't wrong.
kingofmoydow
Poindexter must have dealt with some amount of grief in his life to be able to write all he wrote. Wonder was it all over one girl?
flabbyhayes829
That sounds like some Drake kinda shit
phdinhorribleness
I'd guess his grief came from more than just a broken heart

I used this poem on my wedding invitations. It is the poem that got me interested in poetry, because I found it so powerful and incredible.

Best poet of his time, at the very least.

The quote saying "two things define you" is from a man called Imam Ali. He is a well know person in Islam and he has amazing quotes.

I don't like this being called porn. Where porn only leaves you empty and dead I find these bringing me to a place of fullness and life.

Done anyone remember when this was called poetry? (besides pepperidge farms)
Beeblebee33
Agreed.

Notably with such wondrous wordings, it seems like a simplistic eye-grabbing misnomer. Has the word "gem" fallen so outside our vernacular?

Yet he wrote "The Stranger." Probably the definition of a man who loves nothing, or close to nothing. Not even life when it came down to it.

That "'One day, whether you are 14, 28 or 65" is from Beau Taplin. It nearly killed me when first I read it and leaves me even now in ruins.

Even though I've been in relationships during this time, I've been waiting for someone for nine years. I guess I'll be waiting forever.
shecallmemisterboombasticsaymefantastic
I was in love with someone for a decade. Met as teenagers and dated on and off (the final time was a 5 year long relationship.) (1/?)
shecallmemisterboombasticsaymefantastic
When we broke up I truly didn't know what would happen, I was in love with this person for half my life. And then I met my fire starter(2/?)
shecallmemisterboombasticsaymefantastic
I have never loved anyone like this or been loved by anyone like this. And I never saw it coming either. I hope it happens for you too. 3/3
romuna
I hope so as well, although as a poet I kinda like the idea of "the one that got away". No need to actively wait around though, if it's 1/2
SmokedtheChair
If i ever inspired someone to write like this, i would feel so guilty. If i was inspired like this, i would be in pain.

He has some pretty good stuff, but some of it is just bleh, he cannot handle the use of the expletive. He knows his audience.
YallDunGoofed
This. Thanks a lot, amigo.
kungfuskunk
We hardly remember all the poetry we read. All poets seek that one line that etches itself in memory. It's usually not always the best line.
Foag
OMG THANK YOU! I feel like I was taking crazy pills for a second, he's cheesy to me, like those romantic novels all of our aunts read.
tanebou
I was thinking the same, some gems in there but most of it tumblr type stuff. Then I looked him up, and he's a tumblr poet.
kungfuskunk
I write sometimes, and I've always noticed that the ones most popular with my friends, are the ones I feel are slightly lacklustre. Strange.

This post showed me that I don't really care for him. I preferred almost every other one more than his.

Sounds contrived to me I can't feel the sincerity. Like a Hallmark card.
SqueakShow
Dude is seriously hung up on some chick. Reeks of stalker.
BiggieShakur
Like Neruda but without his sexiness and instead filled with obsession.

His lines sound too fabricated if you ask me; too much exaggerated emotion.

The first 2 were great. Really something... Kinda lost me after that

Agreed, his feel like bad Tumblr attempts at romantic profundity
