Storm in Soul

poetry about storms you may feel in your soul

By Viktorie BerankovaPublished 3 years ago 5 min read

FEEL ALIVE & WILD

he heard the roar of the wave

saw lightning flying through the sky

he felt the wind in his hair

and exactly in this moment

he realised that it is his soul

that is so brave

we all are different but as soon as we talk about our storms we might realise that people all over the world are experiencing similar things and that we are not alone

the way you feel things

the way you are

it doesn’t mean others do the same

from same battle you can have a different scar

SHIVERS OF UNKNOWN LOVE

We are the lovers

not yet holding our hands

still trying to figure out

how big is our chance

Laying on the grass

staring on those stars

hoping there’s something great

they want to show us

BUT STILL WE TRIED

babe we were not perfect

we were far from good

we are just kids that fall in love

earlier than they should

THE SOCIETY

they teach us to be wise

don’t let anyone see your weak side

otherwise you’ll pay the price

it doesn’t really matter

if you’re girl or boy

anyways you are a society’s toy

WATCH YOUR TONE

they say

bite your tongue

don’t say a word

cause you might hurt their feelings

but they don’t know

they’re hurting yours

instead of healing

the pressure to look the way THEY WANT

you’re running like it was a race

against anyone else

still trying to win first place

for best body and face

NEVER ENDING CARNIVAL

tear the mask down

babe you’re not the clown

you don’t have to smile all the time

and that’s just fine

YOU CAN BE THE WHOLE GARDEN

your body has strength

and it has a power

you need to water it and feed it

such as a flower

because if you don’t

it changes a shape

and you think that’s great

but after a while

the leaves turn brown

and the head turns down

and that’s not great anymore

when you’re barely breathing on the floor

so

keep your strength and power

you’re beautiful

such as a flower

MOTHERHOOD

you sacrificed yourself

for his soul and health

I know you will be his shield

on the way through his life

even though it might be a battlefield

BE THERE FOR YOURSELF

sometimes it feels like

figuring things out

is more complicated

than you have awaited

no one can give you map or plan

you need to be your best coach

and biggest fan

GET UP FOR YOURSELF

go find your passion, love and peace

get up from your knees

on the picture smile the way you want

you don’t have to say cheese

stay true

even when things get f*cked up

out of the blue

but most of it all

be you

HEY

hey

I know they tell you to be strong

and you doubt you can take it for so long

but you fake a smile

and you scream inside

& for a moment you wish there was a place where you can hide

listen

they’re right

you’re strong and not alone

we all sometimes have to fight

and go through things

which are simply not right

COMMON MISTAKE

don’t get love with curiosity confused

and those “I love you” words

misused

FIGHT MY THOUGHTS and lose

heavy stone on the chest

from all these thoughts I’m trying to get some rest

but that’s impossible

everything’s too visible

as if you were hiding a dragon in bird’s nest

HEAVY

what should you do

when nothing’s wrong

but nothing seems right too?

why is it so hard to name

things that hurt you inside

and causes anxiety and pain?

CONFESSION

I can pretend that I’m not a coward

but sometimes reality hits like a cold shower

I feel like powerful wizard

but sometimes without her power

EXPERIENCE IT ALL

without fear there would not be bravery

so, try to understand

without pain you would never know how beautiful happiness is

it is not a different story

my friend

YOU WERE MY PERSON

I scream from the bottom of my lungs

everyone keeps telling me it’s alright

but it’s even worse at night

and I can’t breathe

oh I can’t breathe

I miss those times when you missed me

my voice’s shaking

and my heart is breaking

no I can’t breathe

oh I can’t breathe

what did I do to you

what did you do to me

it was so damn nice

when it was us

yeah

I mean you and me

- to the person who I loved too much to be this close

DON’T GRAG ME OR HER INTO YOUR DECISIONS

you have a girlfriend but you still call me pretty

in ways she can never know

otherwise she’ll see you treated her

how?

well, shitty

hope your girlfriend does not know my name

I don’t wanna be part of the reason

for her pain

and I don’t want to be the cause

of her loss

when she realizes

that I’m in your vain

and you surely know

more than my name

THE UNKNOWN BEAUTY

you’ll never know

how many passers-by

can’t even the other day

get you of their mind

how many people loved you

or still do

and you never knew

STOP THE TIME

in the third grade

joking about our future

we never thought that it will be here so fast

now we’re on the edge of high school

wishing childhood was something

that could forever last

It all takes time and courage my friend

you can’t take back those old summer days

and even though you want it so bad

you can’t get back

what you already had

I’m scared of the future

what will it bring?

baby I’m clueless

more than you think

I love my teenage years

when I’m not surrounded

by adulthood fears

this all “living on your own”

& not often coming home

I’m scared

you have those eighteen years

and then there is a line

my dear

I wish I could stop the time

YOUR LOOK WHICH I STILL REMEMBER

that one look

that was all it took

and we both knew

for you it was me

for me it was you

he loved her

she loved him

but they never told each other

and that was a sin

I can’t do a single thing

but it still makes me think

what if?

because you maybe liked me

and it can’t be gone

or can be?

just tell me

we don’t even have one last summer

    cause it’s already gone

you’re leaving in less than hour

to places I’ll probably never know

but I hope there are tomorrows

where we can be close
