The Dark Between Stars Poems
Reviews
3.5 stars i find this better than love her wild even though this may be a lower rating than what i rated for the other book (i'll probably reread love her wild when i have the chance). i can't say there are issues with these poems because there's really nothing bad i can say. all i can say that they're just good for the teenage/young adult soul. if you're not in that age range, then it's going to be more diffcult to grasp in more.
this was more like instagram poetry than rupi kaur's books (and why did it have pictures in it?)
This collection didn't work for me. I liked some poems, but I liked more the photography.
would rate it a 10/5. absolutely adored this book. finished it in one sitting.
I liked some of the pictures.
Everything I am feeling, this book puts into words
This was a repetitive read, and each poem was fit to be on a tumblr post with a faux-artsy background… not pretentious, but perhaps trying to be deep?
Love this kind of poetry so much! There is just something about it that resonates with me.

“Girls,” the old man said, “are an ever-flowing music— no use complaining about the song, just find one that makes you want to dance.”
Quick read as always. Good poems and proses. Anyone who follows him knows his work and it is fairly simple and always worth a quick read.
Atticus has once again created a collection that spoke to my soul. You didn’t think he could follow up Love Her Wild - well he did, with beauty and power that leaves you wanting more. This collection is brilliantly beautiful and so worth a read!
3.5 stars.
This was heartwarming and I loved it. Perfect uplifting poetry and now I would really like to add this to my collection.
My favorite poetry book! It’s gorgeous inside and out, and is a gentle and meaningful read.
loved it loved it loved it 🥺🥺

Highlights
You are too well tangled in my soul
There is not enough time in life to worry about there not being enough time in life.
It’s a good night for whiskey. There's something about the rain that makes me want to burn.
The problem with loving crazy is that crazy starts to rub off.
The bravest thing
she ever did
was to stay alive
each day.
She didn't know why she did it,
she felt trapped inside her skin,
and maybe,
she thought,
just maybe,
the cuts would let the light in.
She had survived his love and with the embers he left behind she lit the mighty flames of her future.
Loving him was like sinking into a warm bath lying there in the soft safety of his silence.
she was just my kind of crazy
The world slowed its spin
in awe of love
like cars slowing for an accident
but instead of a fire
there was just you and I
kissing on a bridge in June.
I've always loved lavender, it's purple in all the right places.
She was an endless source of
beautiful ideas and epiphanies
I wanted to live forever
in the quiet inspiration
of her existence.
He laughed, my darling you will never be unloved by me you are too well tangled in my soul.
The bravest thing she ever did was to stay alive each day
She didn't know why she did it, she felt trapped inside her skin, and maybe, she thought, just maybe, the cuts would let the light in
The plane shook and it scared her not because she was scared to fall but because she cared so little if she did
Don't waste any more tomorrows on someone who wastes your todays
The problem with dating these days is that we compare real humans to the perfect potential of everyone we haven't met yet
guilty
Some days life is a great adventure, other days it seems an uncomfortable necessity between sleeps
Champagne is a trade of good times for headaches
"Stay away from trouble" momma said but then some of us need the storm to feel safe
The earth was drunk and it stumbled along as I walked steadily home from the bar
It is so easy to forget we are the same as all the others in thinking that we are different
Conlusion: I am not special
Put your hands on your heart in you there is power no one has ever thought of there is the strength to love purely and intensely and to be loved back there is the power to make people happy and to make people laugh the power to change lives and futures don't ever forget that power and don't ever give up on it
