Love Poems
POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
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.

The Very Fabric Of Us No More
My belief
In love
Was weaved
Beautifully into my heart
It never occurred to me
It could be broken
That the feeling of emptiness
Could be more painful
Than anything
I had experienced before
That each breath
Would be harder to take
We were lovers
Bonded by our souls
It felt a forever thing
But like the splitting of the atom
Everything we were
Blew apart
A chain reaction
That wouldn’t stop
Till the The very fabric of us
Was no more
This lonely beat ...
In love
Was weaved
Beautifully into my heart
It never occurred to me

Bonded by our souls
It felt a forever thing
But like the splitting of the atom
Everything we were
Blew apart
A chain reaction
That wouldn’t stop
Till the The very fabric of us

I Could've Been an Actress
I knew when we met you would fall for me,
and I found a way to come to your country
So I played the role of damsel in distress
You were never my type, and it wasn't easy
but you were the best option for me
I was only pretending. I could've been an actress
I know your heart is broken and you wanna know why
but I have no need to answer your questions
When I left you I laughed, cause I seen you cry
You see, I don't even care about your emotions
Just go find someone else and stay away from me
I've changed my number...
and I found a way to come to your country
So I played the role of damsel in distress
You were never my type, and it wasn't easy

but I have no need to answer your questions
When I left you I laughed, cause I seen you cry
You see, I don't even care about your emotions
Just go find someone else and stay away from me

Newly In Love
Hand holding
Under moonlit sky
River walking
Talk the hours by
Discover each other
Hopes and dreams
Playful tickling
Until she screams
Passionate kissing
With gorgeous view
City skyline
Beautiful you
Under moonlit sky
River walking
Talk the hours by
Discover each other
Hopes and dreams
Playful tickling
Until she screams
Passionate kissing
With gorgeous view
City skyline
Beautiful you

being a good guest
I don’t pick his brain
that’s a lock I don’t tamper with
to my way of thinking
that’s breaking & entering
no
I simply wait
until he opens up
and invites me in
being a proper guest
on my best behavior
I offer no disrespect
staying only when asked
allowing him to give me the guided tour
or not
as he so chooses
always taking time to give him my thanks
never taking for granted
I’m there at his request
and at any moment
that welcome could be rescinded
I honour his decision
with my reverent...

Water Glistens
Water glistens in the backdrop
as summer washes a heated day
the beads rise up and gather me
tempting the seas across her bay
waves seem rough above the surface
but there lies a calmness deep below
a beauty that's overcoming
as I'm sucked in her undertow
her blueness is light and it welcomes
I delve down into her verve
swimming beside her pristine waters
embracing uniqueness in every curve
I don't need the moon nor the stars
to shine for me
or the winds to take me on home
for I got you alone to guide...

Mindfulness
Monumentally monumental,
Thats what's in there
Bright bulbs & jump leads;
A carrier of loving mischief,
information to find most
Interestingly interesting;
Though to read a mind so beautiful
as yours
A lifetime of adventurous undertaking
to take to catch up
I think I'll need a bigger net

Departed
I dreamt of beginnings new and free clear of a fated past.
To break the hold of a fractured life whose condemned to ever last.
What was lingers on to haunt my nights and curse the gift of day.
By the seemingly harmless casual inflictions that are his loving ways.
I wanted so much for you to know how close we might have been.
How different our life could have become if you had let me in.
You’ve taken my flesh in ways no one has ways others won’t dare.
Each drop I savor that quenches the thirst that I can hardly bear.
You’ve taken my soul for my need is...
To break the hold of a fractured life whose condemned to ever last.
What was lingers on to haunt my nights and curse the gift of day.

I wanted so much for you to know how close we might have been.
How different our life could have become if you had let me in.

I Think It Might
I'm sorry
I'm not good at much
I seem to fail a lot
but what I'm good at
I give my all
like this love
the passion of your lips
brings me to bliss
is this where I belong?
I think it might
don't want to see disappointment in your eyes
so I lie and tell you everything will be fine
but truth is I'm scared to live another day
it's your heart that keeps me sane
in the worse of nights
you are the light that sees me through
make no mistake
there is no me without you
and when the weight of the world
comes...
I'm not good at much

A Man's Place
I am a strong woman
Standing tall
Take no shit
None at all
Six foot tall
In your face
Bold and brash
Know your place
Men of force
Sleazy dancers
Try with force
My pistol answers
My sensual side
Way down south
Only I will decide what
Goes in my mouth
If your one of those men
Egotistically cock sure
I will cut you down
As a man immature
Only gentlemen
Need apply
For the lovin
I supply
But hear me now
If you mistreat
I'll fuck you...

the desert flower part 2
I just saw a desert flower
Rise from the ground with so much power,
Its hidden secrets echoes all around
And where it touches it will astound,
A silent poem slowly glares
With words in rhyme joyfully pairs,
To water this poem to water this plant
Make its growth tuned into chant.
The mix of colour and tonality
Enhance the glimpse of my reality.
Rise from the ground with so much power,
Its hidden secrets echoes all around
And where it touches it will astound,
A silent poem slowly glares
With words in rhyme joyfully pairs,
To water this poem to water this plant
Make its growth tuned into chant.
The mix of colour and tonality
Enhance the glimpse of my reality.
