I WROTE THIS FOR YOU, ME AND ANYONE TRYING TO FUCKING MOVE ON

by Robert M. Drake

Relationships require more than just love. I hope you understand this the next time you're in love. I hope you understand that it takes time. Patience. Loyalty. Respect. Communication. Forgiveness. And selflessness. I hope you understand that maintaining a healthy relationship is not easy. It takes work. And hard work alone. I hope you understand that to receive you must give. And vice versa. Mutually. Equally. And not more than the other. I hope you also understand that relationships are important. That you need them to grow. That you need these special. Rare. Beautiful. Interactions with people. That they, too, will represent some of your best moments. That someone you love will always be involved in something memorable. I hope you understand this. So you know what to look out for. Why to cling to and what to let go. Just Remember. Love is so very important. But it also takes so much more than you think.

Some of the most relatable breakup poetry

[Taylor · Rating 4 out of 5]

Robert M Drake always has a way of saying exactly all the things that I feel but cannot put into words.

[Eric Mccoy · Rating 2 out of 5]

The author appears to have a limited view of what moving on means. A lot of the book focuses on removing yourself from other people who are affecting your life in negative ways. A lot of sentiment, but often comes off as a bit self-centered only a few poems are devoted to overcoming guilt about personal flaws the primary reason I picked up this book. So maybe the poetry would resonate with somebody who feels guilt over detaching themselves from somebody else who was a jerk, but I think a book of poetry that is more balanced on self-analysis would be more insightful for me.

Ever been so broken hearted you can’t find the words to describe the hurt?
Trust me when I say these are the words you were looking for. Word that make you realise pain and struggle letting go is normal and it’s not just you. RM Drake is an incredible poet

Heartfelt & Touching

Okay so maybe reading this book less than a week after a breakup was a terrible idea, as I sobbed uncontrollably the whole way through... Though maybe that's because it's so spot on as well!

10\10 definitely! Would 100% recommend for anyone who needs a reminder to love themselves just a little bit more. Bookmarked my favourite pages so I can go back and read them when I need the reminder! 💕
