"Ephemeral" - a poem by Ashten Light. This poem was written for a friend who helps me see the stars in a sky of darkness. When one is struggling, even the brief moments of smiles and happiness is such a relief. It gives so much hope for the future, reminding us that happiness does, in fact, exist. ~tags~ #poetsofinstagram #writersshare #poetstribe #poetrycommunity #writersaroundtheworld #poetscity #poetsandpoetryy #shewrites #poetictthoughts #words #poems #poets #poetry #instapoetry #poetryisnotdead #poetryrise #poetrybook #inkedpoetry #bleedingsoulpoetry #poetsandwriters #poetrysociety #poemsoftheday #writersunite #writersnewtag #writersconnection #artofpoets #writeyourheartout #poetryinstagram #_inkverse (at Sunshine) https://www.instagram.com/p/CONnlktl9b0/?igshid=1br9sbcssp50x

Welcome to my very first #mentalhealthmonday ! Since mental health is such an important topic to me and to many in this community, dedicating a day each week to talking about it seems like the least I can do! This week, I bring a poem about disordered eating. Please be mindful that this may be triggering and PROCEED WITH CARE! I don't want anyone to get triggered. 💖 I've struggled with disordered eating for awhile now... After never being satisfied with my goal weight, I've learned that my love of myself has to come from within, not from a number on a scale or a tape measure. Eating disorders effect about 9% of the population and are among the most deadly mental illnesses, only topped by opioid overdose. BIPOC are 50% more likely than white teenagers to exhibit symptoms of bulimia, but are only half as likely to receive diagnosis or treatment. (Statistics from anad.org) About 1.5% of young males experience an eating disorder and are provided with little if any support or information, since information surrounding eating disorders typically center around females. This is all to say that eating disorders are a real and dangerous problem created by a careless society. Please, if you think you may be struggling with one, reach out to a loved one or a doctor. You are strong and courageous. <333 ~tags~ #poetry #mentalhealth #eatingdisorder #poetrycommunity #mentalhealthawareness #poetryofinstagram #mentalhealthmatters #poetrylovers #eatingdisorderrecovery #poetryislife #poetrysociety #mentalhealthsupport #mentalhealthadvocate #mentalhealthrecovery #bymepoetry #sadpoetry #disorderedeating #mentalhealthwarrior #poetryoftheday #poetrylove #eatingdisorders #herheartpoetry #mentalhealthisimportant #poetrydaily #eatingdisorderawareness #mentalhealthstigma #bleedingsoulpoetry #darkpoetry #qotd https://www.instagram.com/p/CN2dDIglZSk/?igshid=1png4hxgr502t

"Our Love" - a poem by Ashten Light. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Another romantic poem here, short and simple, but I rather like the tone of it. Petrichor is the word for the smell after it rains and in my opinion, there is no better scent. Something about it makes me go a bit crazy in the head, just enough to feel energized and alive and happy. It reminds me of the feeling of a deep sort of love, the sort beneath the passionate desires, the one that is soft and gentle and wholesome and real. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ~tags~ #poetsofinstagram #writersshare #lovequotes #poetrycommunity #writersaroundtheworld #poetscity #poetsandpoetryy #shewrites #poetictthoughts #words #poems #poets #poetry #instapoetry #poetryisnotdead #poetryrise #poetrybook #inkedpoetry #bleedingsoulpoetry #poetsandwriters #for you #poetrylove #romantic #lovepoems #lovepoetry #couple #micropoetry #qotd #inlove #heart (at In Love) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNucWHfFgJj/?igshid=1qbcrbaimvdxl

"Lies" - a poem by Ashten Light. Friendly reminder that withholding expressions of love and affection to someone until they agree with you on certain things is toxic and/or abusive behavior. 👍🏻 ~tags~ #poetsofinstagram #writersshare #poetstribe #poetrycommunity #writersaroundtheworld #poetscity #poetsandpoetryy #shewrites #poetictthoughts #words #poems #poets #poetry #instapoetry #poetryisnotdead #poetryrise #poetrybook #inkedpoetry #love #depression #poetrysociety #poemsoftheday #writersunite #writersnewtag #writersconnection #artofpoets #writeyourheartout #poetryinstagram #qotd https://www.instagram.com/p/CNnZrablSZJ/?igshid=yho5c45rljkd

"Legacy" - a poem By Ashten Light. Originally part of a larger poem, these few lines really stuck out to me. Helping people is a large part of my goals in life - that's why I'm a psychology student! But I know right now if something were to happen to me, all that the world would know of me would be the few people who read my poetry. It's a somber sort of realization. 💖 ~tags~ #poetsofinstagram #writersshare #poetstribe #poetrycommunity #writersaroundtheworld #poetscity #poetsandpoetryy #shewrites #poetictthoughts #words #poems #poets #poetry #instapoetry #poetryisnotdead #poetryrise #poetrybook #inkedpoetry #bleedingsoulpoetry #poetsandwriters #poetrysociety #poemsoftheday #writersunite #writersnewtag #writersconnection #artofpoets #writeyourheartout #poetryinstagram #_inkverse https://www.instagram.com/p/CNcuqg_lvv2/?igshid=l45rh2nyijwr

"Not to Blame" - a poem by Ashten Light. This poem stems from that dreadful feeling of knowing you won't get the apology or validation from someone who has wronged you. It's so hard to move on when the other party won't admit they did anything wrong. Healing is a hard process. 💖 ~tags~ #poetsofinstagram #writersshare #poetstribe #poetrycommunity #writersaroundtheworld #poetscity #poetsandpoetryy #shewrites #poetictthoughts #words #poems #poets #poetry #instapoetry #poetryisnotdead #poetryrise #poetrybook #inkedpoetry #bleedingsoulpoetry #poetsandwriters #warriorsofmentalhealth #mentalillness #mentalillnesspoetry #depression #anxiety #adhd #mentalhealth #sadpoetry #mentalhealthpoems #mentallyill (at My Soul) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNXdJuglrzt/?igshid=1q1dde820d8rn

**Trigger warning: brief discussion of abuse.** "Selfish" - a poem by Ashten Light. Friendly reminder that non-physical abuse is just as abusive. Emotional, verbal, and mental abuse are also extremely detrimental and painful to go through. I am so proud of everyone who has come out the other side of such awful situations. Break the cycle. 💖 Sending love! ~tags~ #poetsofinstagram #writersshare #poetstribe #poetrycommunity #writersaroundtheworld #poetscity #poetsandpoetryy #shewrites #poetictthoughts #words #poems #poets #poetry #instapoetry #poetryisnotdead #poetryrise #poetrybook #inkedpoetry #bleedingsoulpoetry #poetsandwriters #warriorsofmentalhealth #mentalillness #mentalillnesspoetry #depression #anxiety #adhd #mentalhealth #sadpoetry #mentalhealthpoems #mentallyill https://www.instagram.com/p/CNTFdAoFLVD/?igshid=2v72vh1gfcz7

"Marry the Stars" - a poem by Ashten Light. Sometimes I feel as though my wounds are too deep for anyone to ever help me heal... that I'm a lost cause, that if I love someone I should want them to find someone better than me. I don't have a solution for this problem yet, but I hope I will one day. ~tags~ #poetsofinstagram #writersshare #poetstribe #poetrycommunity #writersaroundtheworld #poetscity #poetsandpoetryy #shewrites #poetictthoughts #words #poems #poets #poetry #instapoetry #poetryisnotdead #poetryrise #poetrybook #inkedpoetry #bleedingsoulpoetry #poetsandwriters #micropoetryfeatures #love #lovequotes #sadqoutes #sadlovequotes #lovepoems #mentalhealth #mentalillness #mentalillnesspoetry #qotd https://www.instagram.com/p/CNP6roVp1pv/?igshid=ji74ezj8aq9
