poetry that makes you live hard

please comment back with a favorite poem

So Is My Life
By Pablo Naruda
My duty moves along with my song:
I am I am not: that is my destiny.
I exist not if I do not attend to the pain
of those who suffer: they are my pain s.
For I cannot be without existing for all,
for all who are silent and oppressed,
I come from the people and I sing for them:
my poetry is song and punishment.
I am told: you belong to darkness.
Perhaps, perhaps, but I walk toward the light.
I am the man of bread and fish
and you will not find me among books,
but with women and men:
they have taught me the infinite.

on love


She has no intention of hurting you, and still life will take its course because we are in search for our soul mate and when we find them we will not fear anymore because if we are hurt we are hurt together. And it is through the long loneliness that we hurt as we sacrifice to find happiness. Once we are with our soul mate the bond will bring eternal happiness – suffering will no longer be sadness, there will be no darkness. This eternal bliss comes in different ways for different people and it is this difference which is our commonality. We are all beckoned by something deep inside of us that attracts us to something greater than ourselves, this process is what connects us all.
