Poetry often times speaks what our soul is unable to express. It can heal and console you in times of pain. Here are 20 of my favorite poems for healing and moving on.

1. "Accept that you deserve more than painful love. Life is moving. The healthiest thing for your heart is to move with it."

-Rupi Kaur, "Milk and Honey"

2. "When the past sends you a text, don't reply. Say nothing."

-r.h. Sin, "Rest in the Mourning"

-Rupi Kaur, "Milk and Honey"

4. "If you were born with the weakness to fall, you were born with the strength to rise."

-Rupi Kaur, "Milk and Honey"

5. "I know it's hard. Believe me. I know it feels like tomorrow will never come and today will be the most difficult day to get through. But I swear you will get through. The hurt will pass as it always does if you give it time and let it. So let go. Slowly. Like a broken promise, let it go."

-Rupi Kaur, Milk and Honey

6. "If the hurt comes, so will the happiness. Be patient."

-Rupi Kaur, "Milk and Honey"

10. "Place distance in between yourself and the things that keep you up at night. Distance yourself from anyone who robs you of peace and joy."

-r.h. Sin, "Rest in the Mourning"

-r.h. Sin, "Whiskey Words & a Shovel II"

14. “Truth is you’re not okay. But you will be. You’ll hold on but you’ll let go. It’ll be difficult but you’ll do it. You’re feeling weak but be strong.”

-r.h. Sin, "Whiskey Words & a Shovel II"

15. “The pain means you’re alive. The scars mean you’ve always survived.”

-r.h. Sin, "Whiskey Words & a Shovel II"

19.) "For too much of my life, I've apologized when I wasn't wrong all to make a situation better. I'm not going to be that person anymore."

-Samantha King, "Born to Love, Cursed to Feel"

20. "There will be those who seek to destroy you and everything you stand for. No matter what, keep building."
