Beneath The Quiet Below — Poetry Begins.
“ I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope /
for hope would be hope for the wrong thing.”T.S. Eliot
A Quiet Invitation
Welcome to The Quiet Below, a collection of original poems and reflections dedicated to healing and personal growth.
Here you’ll find motivational poems and sad, reflective verses that turn quiet struggles into art.
The mission is to help you process trauma and find hope through poetry – from journaling for healing to insights on how to analyse poems and understand their deeper meaning.
In this quiet space, poetry becomes a form of writing therapy, guiding both readers and writers through life’s challenges.”
Featured Poems From The Quiet Below.
My hunger now to learn is deep and real,
much more than food could ever satisfy.
No dish or treat has quite the same appeal
It’s knowledge now that pulls and drives me high.
Nothing tastes as good as truth feels,
and truth is, I’m a little bit weird.
Like Tumblr at midnight, still spinning,
still serving the forgotten, the feared.
I’m tangled in the threads I chose to weave,
Each passion pulling gently at my soul.
A life of “want it all,” I still believe—
Yet chasing all has taken quite a toll.

About the Poet
My name is Nadia Polydorou. I’m the creator and writer of all you see on this page―a personal dedication to my everyday life through poems.
I’m based in Cyprus, but most likely, you’ll find me behind the screens and notebooks of my scribbles - professionally, personally or otherwise.
Sometimes words will find their way,
And other times, they drift or stay.
Like people, some are quick to share,
While others speak but rarely care.
