Instapoetry is a style of poetry that emerged as a result of social media. This type of poetry is written specifically for sharing on Instagram, which is usually short and just a bite of words.

Here is a collection of my poetry from my Instagram account.

If hate is too strong a word to use,
then love must be even stronger.

Learn to grow
by letting go.

I keep my head in the clouds
with the hope of catching a shooting star.

Looking amidst the storm,
I found chaos.
Looking beyond the clouds,
I found calm.

After all the dark phases I went through,
I am still here for you.

If our scars were diamonds,
we would put the stars to shame.

Light 
travels best
through emptiness.

Don't wither away
like a hopeless wraith.
There is always light
if you have some faith.

Love
is the needle and the thread.
