Andrea Gibson- How It Ends

[@sabrina_english]

The first time I watched this I thought how amazing it would be to experience this kind of love. I now know what that love feels like.

[@lovesshrimp]

Listening to her is hypnotic.

[@maraflores8894]

after four years of listening and reading poetry this is still my all time favorite

[@Eric_Is_Here673]

Have enough heard Shane koyczan? He's one of my other favorites

[@AgehaMizuki]

Same here. I love this chick. Everyone wants to be loved like this..

[@fairygodmammadance]

...I just started applauding. I forgot that I am alone in my room. But I don't really care because this deserves all the appreciation and adoration forever.

[@franksonjohnson]

Back 12 years after my first time watching this. I can now say from experience that it's meaningful even if this kind of love isn't forever. Thank you Andrea.

[@jnqh]

Every time I listen to this poem I just find myself smiling without even realizing it. This makes me so happy :)

[@jjohnnyjesus]

I thought I hated soppy love poetry, but you beatiful girl bloody rocked it! The humour and the off beat similies, but most of all the genuine emotion going down as you said it- I hope so much that you're still together & happy enough to generate that feeling forever.

[@waterplusmusicislife1298]

incredible. thank you, my annoying inner critic who searches for flaws when he should be delighting in beauty was silent, smiling at peace. Here's to love poems and laughter.

[@wakingtheworld]

That's one helluva love poem! Love it, love it, love it!

Love doesn't know gender, race, religion, or age. Love is beautiful no matter what. :)

[@Aevdancer42]

I didn't blink that whole video. Absolutely mesmerizing.

[@lvbrown1216]

Damn...I actually teared up it was all too sweet. I swear if anyone ever said that to me i would just melt!

[@kaylatrainor991]

what are you talking about im not crying

[@KalishEatandGreet]

i couldn't help but smile through this whole video

[@NightsareStarry]

I;ve watched this countless times, and, again and again, I love it. More and more.

[@thislifewasledastray]

I wish I had her mind, if I could write one poem half as good as hers, I would be happy for life.

[@FinalFarce]

OMG OMG OMG Why can't I like this more than once?

[@yesreneau]

spoken word poetry is the shit

[@ranjitkour2666]

fuck off..u dont understand it

[@yesreneau]

Ranjit Kour I said "the shit", not "shit". It was meant as a complement, yikes!

[@salvation7141]

YesReneau I think it's shit. it's corny as helllllll. the more hipster/swag people in it, the more I lose faith in this generation.

[@yesreneau]

Well, that's an unfortunate conclusion that fails to focus on the positives. But hey, to each his own.

[@mssky69]

YesReneau lol i understood what you meant

[@cuutteessiieezzz]

I am giving a thumbs up to that because even though you two have one thing that you don't have in common her poetry brought you together, and that, I think, is beautiful.

[@crashuhoh]

and with every poem i hear/read from her, i fall more in awe. i think i would die if i saw her live :D

[@DaniGhostGirl]

This is just perfect. Can't even handle it. God I love Andrea Gibson.

[@Jonquil_Studios]

I forgot how much I loved this poem.

[@amberdawn770]

Andrea! You improve my life on the days my heart can't take the overwhelming sadness that sometimes comes. Thank you, thank you, thank you! And much love your way =)

[@LVBryant2]

Andrea Gibson makes everything okay. She is so beautiful she makes me cry, really truly cry like the world is that amazing. She's so amazing she literally *makes poems come out of my fingers.

[@trumpetbjohnson]

This....this right here...I can't even begin to describe the beauty in the love expressed by this woman. The point shouldn't be focusing on her sexuality, it's her love. If you must focus on her sexuality in this context, you're missing the raw emotion bleeding off of this woman. These words, are perfect. This is what love means to me.

[@MossyBallerina]

The more I listen to this, the more I like it. And I absolutely loved it the first time I heard it.

[@0music0lvr0]

This is absolute perfection. Like...if someone ever directed anything like this to me, I'd be hard-pressed not to fall in love with them in a heartbeat.

[@Twigglet13]

If someone expressed their love for me like she does with this poem, I wouldn't be able to breathe. This was so beautiful, and I still have tears running down my cheek.

[@smorasaurus]

I've listened to this so many times, and it gives me chills every single time.

[@betch7809]

Cause there's this girl, who says she wants to float on her back through my bloodstream, and when she does, I want my rivers to reach the sea. - favorite line.

[@NightKunoichi]

God I'm so glad I discovered slam poetry. :D This is simply amazing and beautiful.

[@amberdawn770]

She is coming to our school!!! I am sooo excited! She is one of my most favorite people!

[@abringley1083]

She says it in so many poems and the way it crawls out of her mouth is beautiful

[@signing4change]

most moved ever. I've loved her since the beggining. Thank God, that she can have this liberty in this country

[@ScreamingPsychos]

I'm just getting into the world of slam poetry and can I just say I love this so much? :)

[@Rawrz013]

I have been listening to this almost non stop since last night. This poem gives me hope in love again, hope that I can find someone as amazing as this. Someone that doesn't take life too seriously but takes you seriously. The rest of her poetry makes me want to be a better person. It makes me want to test my limits and meet new people. And I'm going to show everyone I know her poetry in hopes that they feel the same way I do.

[@danielamejia]

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!

[@Joytherobot]

This is beautiful for this moment what she is doesn't matter its poetry and thus she is beautiful too

[@TressaZimmerman]

Oh my God. I got so into her speaking. I was hoping my gf could talk to me in that way

[@TressaZimmerman]

Everyone is different. Communicating doesn't come easy to all

[@TressaZimmerman]

I often wish I could speak that we'll.

[@XX-tq1oe]

Tressa Zimmerman you can you just dont know it

[@celineypie]

This gave me shivers. So beautiful.

[@amandawhittaker3833]

I wish ALL of her poems had this many views :)

[@SnowLilies]

gah, I watch one of her videos and now I'm hooked. She is amazing.

[@MsRedkitty1]

Fantastic. What a talent! Thank you.

[@missmoonjelly]

You are a miraculous person. Rock on, Andrea. You are wonderful.

[@Sameu37]

I want to be loved this much

[@awilsonstoryteller]

Phenomenal blend of spoken word and music.

[@betch7809]

She is a beautiful poet.

[@TinyBlackHeart]

Ive never replayed poetry so many times. ♥

[@sunshinelove333]

This is my favourite poem by her, she's such an amazing spoken word artist.

[@yeheyy888]

holy-- i have no words, it's beautiful

[@xHigherxNowx]

My girlfriend sent me this just now, after seeing me in person for the very first time last night. There have only been two poems that have ever made me cry, and this is the third. I know how I'm going to propose to her three years from now.

[@JaneDoe-pp2qy]

Hi, it's probably weird to ask, but how did it go? (and I sincerely hope this story is a happy one)

[@rurugby]

I love that she had to look at her phone for a second, that makes me less afraid to get off page.

[@misscridic]

I think a poetry seed was just planted in my heart...

[@GearheadRomeo13]

The first time I heard this was in my Literary theory class and I tried to hide back a tear I shed from this poem because it is the single sweetest poem I ever heard. It's sweet and genuine.

[@ellemadore]

This is beautiful and she just seems so full of joy. I love it.

[@OMGomgOMGuGuys]

To viewers out there feeling a sense of defeat when reading the harshly negative comments from a small group of people who think being hateful to those who differ from them is acceptable; remember this. While they use harmful words to criticize the love of others anonymously behind a computer screen, Andrea Gibson and thousands of other brave souls speak of true love, an honest and innocent passion that transcends sexuality, live across the world. Love with your soul, and the world will follow

[@hannasiviav]

Andrea speaks to my soul

[@RememberTheTrees]

Didn't expect a poem entitled "How it Ends" to be so positive.

[@Animeartist124]

My favorite poem of hers. So beautiful.

[@RomanDiaries]

This is the most adorably earnest thing I've heard in a very long time.

[@46l3eauty]

smiled through the whole thing!

[@emocass]

This makes me feel alive.

[@readingwritingracing]

This poem makes me so, so happy.

[@hannahshaw3798]

Someone asked me why I don't think homosexuality is a sin. My reply is this video. Something so passionate and beautiful could not possibly be wrong. Something like this, that makes me pray to any god who will listen and wish on every star and dandelion that I can someday find a love like this just once, just for a second, can not POSSIBLY be wrong.

[@ladybug797]

this is so stunning

[@sionacoi5422]

this is one of my favorites. omg its so perfect and beautiful.

[@annamaloney823]

“Right now, I love you forever”

[@ChristianRidenour]

This is a poem. I guess it could be called a slam poem. But, I don't really know too much so...If you have any love in you. If you care for someone more than you can bear sometimes, maybe you should listen to this. If you don't, then maybe you should listen to this anyway. Because beauty is something that you should seek no matter the day or your state of mind or you place in life. And let me tell you something, This is beautiful.

[@ToluwanimiObiwole]

i love her, like so freaking much. she is so talented oh my goodness

[@alaskaonthemoon]

i remember this song. perfect with the poem.

[@atanasichuk]

Gave me chills.

[@ltsfreerealestate]

Real and unbelievable might contradict each other but this is so unbelievably real

[@majormorkiss]

[@lilwil69part2]

By second 20, I fell in love.

[@KillJoyAcyd23]

:D I love this mix of music and slam poetry. LOVE!!

[@Asmita27]

WOW just yesterday I was thinking that english is a very unromantic language... Now I know it IS romantic when it's in the hands of the writer of this poem. Beautiful. Makes me wish I was lesbian cause I can't imagine a guy saying such beautiful things

[@Icanhackyou345]

All my feels. All of them.

[@crazydubs7]

this is beautiful. I love her metaphors. And it makes me laugh too. and even though she had to pause to fix the music, the poem still fit. That's awesome.

[@08dahlia80]

absolutely fucking amazing words...raises chills up my spine every time i listen to it EVERY TIME..i'd call that unbelievable lovin but its not.its the song of the most natural state of being we can achieve..its a poetry of love so real it makes me cry

[@syncingtitanic]

This is so beautiful!!

[@sparrow1007]

I was at this show amazing!!!

[@featheredskyblue]

This poem had me at "like a diabetic third-grader opening a Snickers bar." It's so fantastic.

[@transformersloverjon]

Wow, this was wonderful.

[@MsKathrynWalters]

One of my all time favorite songs.

[@beccasmizzle]

She could write it better than I'll ever feel it.

[@mikaapaigee]

I love listening to her, and this is one of my favorites3

[@sariah666rose]

Beauty. Such beauty.

[@RaynarRogers]

Whoever the woman is who has spent almost three years with you, is a lucky and loved woman!

[@princess13dachshund]

I want to be loved like this.

[@DavidJBauman]

The song she is playing is by Devotchka and it's called "How it Ends." She was inspired by the song, or the movie the song was in, to write this poem, if I remember correctly.

[@rurugby]

She does both, the quick phone look is when she repeats the line. It's endearing.
