20 Best Instagram Poems About Love That Can Help You Save Your Relationship
Poems say everything we can't.
Whether your relationship is just in your mind, still blossoming or already well-established, reading and sharing poetry with your partner can be an enlightening experience. Poetry can communicate feelings you might not know how to express and help you realize when a relationship is right or wrong for you.
Poems are interesting in that they ignore grammar, plot and, sometimes, common sense to express emotion. They don’t care if their readers will like them; they just are, and that’s what couples should be. They should be comfortable enough with themselves and each other to tell the truth, no matter the cost. In this way, poetry can help couples understand what they really want from the other person and how they can attain it. With poetry on your side, there’s nothing you can’t accomplish.
At times, poetry can reveal that parting ways and saying your final goodbyes are the best options and that's OK. However, you’ll leave knowing you’re more prepared for your next relationship. Unfortunately, “saving” a relationship may not always mean gluing you and your partner back together but instead, letting them go. You’ll better understand what you want in a partner and how you should be treated.
Most often, couples find that using poetry as their guide only strengthens their relationship. They can discover new things about one another and keep the relationship exciting. Reading poetry aloud can also be very sensual, depending on the situation.
Take a look at these Instagram poems that perfectly explain how it feels when you’re dealing with great and not-so-great relationship issues like crushing, worrying about the future or being jealous of your partner’s exes. Instagram poets always know what's what in love and are there to help you figure it out, too.
