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.

Longing
Longing to see you, touch and hold you in my arms. My heart is where you belong. Baby you will never find a love so warm so strong. You have always been mines, and I have always been yours. My love and arms are always open for you, and no woman could ever close that door. Sugar no man will ever love you more.

5:40am watching the sun come up
falling through the universe while i fall for the stars in your eyes. take me to a world that only you can see and we can fall back, back to the sky. count the silhouettes of trees and measure the distance from your hand to mine.
when the sun comes up it casts a shadow between us and we're both so afraid of the dark. the sky grows light around us yet we remain only outlines for a while more. wind your fingers through the clouds and pull, push your thumbs into the stars until you burn up or they burn out.
blink and find the sun crawling back to the sky like a dying man to the...

i miss you
i miss what we never had
i miss wanting you to be mine
i miss hating when you didn't notice me
because i don't any more and somehow that's worse
the ache whenever i saw you was comforting
but now it's faded and i'm scared
i want the familiarity of that craving back
i'm trying to feel for you but i don't know if it's working
whenever i see you, i feel something i can't explain
something tries to spark, but doesn't quite make it
even writing this doesn't feel right
but fuck i just want to feel something

The End
Whenever I think im free
Here you are, again
No time alone
But Im willing to risk
You finding him in my bed.
Here you are, again
No time alone

Slumberous Interruptus
If it were crash or dash
Earthquake or Thunder
Even some quick cash
I would not feel torn asunder
If it were jubilations shared
Or crisis concerned and met
Liberations finalized
Maybe even a sweet new pet
Any above would be welcomed to wake
Without some life would be too hard to take
But to awaken to such ...
A soft breath on my skin at rest
Silken tresses splaying on my rising chest
A hand tracing my brow with delicate fingertips
A sigh escaping past long neglected juicy lips
Legs...

Letter: Goddess of Love
To the Goddess of Love
you are out there
waiting for us to
show us how true love
is suppose to look like
I hope her mind is
very smart because
we need to talk
to get along with
each other in
order to be united

Ice
I dreamt of you again.
My hell, why do I keep dreaming of you?
It's like every second that I can produce a thought, it's about you.
Do you have a moment to spare?
I just wanted to make sure your gaze is still blue.
How are you today?
I ask because I see that you are starting to go mad.
Do you as feel as empty as the way she looks at you?
I'm sorry, I truly don't mean to pry.
Can you even feel a thing?
My God, my love, I've never seen such a vacant stare in ones eye.
What's on your mind?
I hope you feel the same because you are...

Back when
The first holidays since you have gone
People say it gets easier
Im here to say they are wrong.
I still remember your smile as we held hands and watched christmas lights at the birmingham zoo for our honeymoon
Running in the pouring rain to our hotel room
And just laughing and the fun we had when christmas came painting baking . back when things were so easy and you were still here.

Another Dead Poet
I have lived and loved one too many times
The last one was the last one, it's over now
Something was broken, and is unrepairable
I've completely destroyed my life somehow
Not sure if I was.broken from the start,
but I am to broken to be used by another
All I can do is hold onto my heart
everytime I see my last live with her lover
Every day I will remember to breathe
and I'll take the pain, just like a man
I have no choice, I happen to be
No longer wanted by any woman
Whatever is broken, has no hope
and it was...

First Date
To have tried so many times
To satisfy both your heart and mind
And for every time to had been wrong
You feel as if I'm the same old song
Instead of feeling the pains of new found love
The kind displayed by someone sacrificing the great above
And all the promises that it has been made
I'm totally satisfied to die in your shade
The first signs of love is unselfish truth
Looking no farther than our hearts for the proof
Never daring to ever compare
For what's in the past let it remain there
But everyone...
To satisfy both your heart and mind
And for every time to had been wrong
You feel as if I'm the same old song
Instead of feeling the pains of new found love
The kind displayed by someone sacrificing the great above
And all the promises that it has been made
I'm totally satisfied to die in your shade
The first signs of love is unselfish truth
Looking no farther than our hearts for the proof
Never daring to ever compare
For what's in the past let it remain there
But everyone...
