Love Poems
Poetry about lost love, heartbreak and relationship problems
Previously covering both the sides of love, this section now focuses on poems about the dark side of love, heartbreak and the hurt caused by lost love. Happy love poetry now finds a home in the "upbeat poems" section. This category is reserved for love poems about troubled friendships and relationships and it's where poets offload emotional pain inflected by (ex) boyfriends, girlfriends, wives, husbands, family and friends. Which all begs the question, what is love anyway? Maybe you'll find out here.
Her Q His Q

A collaboration between 2 hearts.
Dedicated to you Miz C.
(SHE ASKED)
His eyes sparkled
Like a warm winter fire
I asked if he had ever doubted my love for him
……….”Yes in the beginning” he replied
……….Our connection now fortified
……….Your Love has smashed through
……….I don’t doubt your Love, yours is true
Presenting him with the only gift I had … Fear
“Will you accept it?”
……….Accept it … “I Do”
……….I felt the pain in you
……….Let me take it all
……….And break that fearful wall
My heart pounding in my chest ...

Mistress
Lonely are the nights
They seem longer than ever before
I long for the mornings,
For I stand a better chance to text
Does it ever get better…?
As I gaze through my bedroom window
I wonder when did I become so fastened
It’s the disappointment I get when the phone beeps
And its not you
As I try so hard to find something to put my focus on
I can’t stop to think
What could they be talking about
Maybe the're arguing,
Maybe laughing at each other’s jokes
Perhaps making love
That’s when I know,
Even when I’m missing...

the story of a dream
I had a dream, a dream that was soo amazing that it felt real
Although it was unbelievably a dream
A dream where everything was all good
A dream where although it sometimes rained and got tough,
There was no reason to ever complain
A dream of two individuals joining as one
Yes there were rainy days but together we create the sun
A dream where we could be doing absolutely nothing yet still it would be fun
There was a special connection where I absolutely loved every second
A dream where your touch was soo heavenly that we melt together
A dream...

uncertainties of love
What scares the most is having to wake up without them
Then you just don’t know where to go from where they left
But you still wish them the best and
You know your heart will always love them from that created distance
Where did it begin to go wrong
Was it the little fights
The unnecessary arguments
The door I shut every time we had a quarrel
The most important talks we neglected to converse
The comfort of having you around,
Because I forgot to text whenever I missed you
I forgot to not sleep mad at you
I allowed pride to...

Shuffle these songs into love.

Poem Published 23rd June 2017 7:10am
Hey girl,
You look so fine.
Let me treat you to dinner and wine,
Indulge my love,
Hug and kiss,
Let me show you why my love is a hit.
Won't miss
as I transfer my soul through this kiss.
I don't have to pray for you to be the one.
I know with you its forever,
we rise with the sun.
I know with you it's forever,
We won't be done.
I know with you it's forever,
We will be one.
She looks at me with those eyes that make me whole.
It's the same look I give the mirror as...

Knight-fall
Written by Poetryman
Poem Published 23rd June 2017 6:56am
An early evening storm has blown the afternoon sun from the sky
As the clouds dissipate along the horizon an orange globe falls
While darkness creeps up the other side of the mist covered air
The cold kiss of night sends shivers across my naked dripping flesh
Standing alone where your shadow fell into the dirt beneath my feet
I knew that the rising Moon was not coming up to enlighten my life
It just wanted to show I'd be on my own as falling stars burned holes in the night
Though the heavens sparkled with suns a billion light-years over my head
Their...

Wanting to Be With You
Written by eswaller
Poem Published 23rd June 2017 6:12am
I will make it as simple as I can for you.
I want to be with only you because I do
Not care to be with anybody else. When
The sky turns dark and I have been
Everywhere I want to go, I want to be
Right beside you. It is you that I see
This bright and hopeful future with.
I no longer want love to be a myth
And something to just dream about.
I want to embrace it. With every doubt
In our minds, I want us to let it all go.
Darling, I want us to continue to know
Each other. I want us to grow old together.
Even when there is stormy...
I want to be with only you because I do
Not care to be with anybody else. When
The sky turns dark and I have been
Everywhere I want to go, I want to be
Right beside you. It is you that I see
This bright and hopeful future with.
I no longer want love to be a myth
And something to just dream about.
I want to embrace it. With every doubt
In our minds, I want us to let it all go.
Darling, I want us to continue to know
Each other. I want us to grow old together.

Breaking the Sphere of Comfort
Written by upomeno
Poem Published 23rd June 2017 4:54am
The fish swims in its small, glass bowl
Where everything is clear
Chasing the tail of the other fish on the other side
To stop itself from swimming in circles
Periodically
Nibbling from food that falls from above
Over the course of time
It's a fun game
Until you get bloated on repetition
The same food.
In the midst of troubleshooting a way out
In a circular world
Getting out means breaking the glass
Risk making a mess
And letting the water flow everywhere
Unbridled, unbiased
While I flop around gasping for air ...

Fireflies
Written by jemac
Poem Published 23rd June 2017 3:46am
Tonight in light rain
Fireflies danced all around
Making her forget her pain
Orchestral maneuvers in the dark
Shimmering under trees
Magical floating spark
Childhood memories
Making her smile
Stars twinkling in the breeze
Fireflies danced all around
Making her forget her pain
Orchestral maneuvers in the dark
Shimmering under trees
Magical floating spark
Childhood memories
Making her smile
Stars twinkling in the breeze
