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.

Him
His eyes makes me wanna see deep down inside to get the real him the raw edgy sweet uncontrollable honesty
even when things are uncertain
to start new to show him my heart
am I ready is he ready am I’m willing is he.. to shower him with love he can’t imagine to be his best friend his better half
when loving is hard to do when anxiety takes over and being positive seems like a distance memory
when I’m falling apart when I’m afraid to fight the temptation of what if or what could be

~Last Summer Whisper
Dreamy eyes, the trees whisper their thoughts to me
Subtle charm, the sun sets and she catches you
Do you hear what I hear?
As we’re walking closer than friends
Wind whisperin’, makes my heart floatin’
Do you see what I see?
As sunlight dew drips from those lips
A warm haze, lifts eyes, up to you~
Baby love, do you feel my gaze on you?
Look into my eyes, deep in my soul
Baby love, do you hear my heartbeat call?
Whispering softly, sounds of love
Sparklin’ smile, I hear raindrops ripplin’ with...

twilight soul
I ache in twilight
the dusk settles upon my soul
and I keen inside the hollow places
somewhere in between destiny and fate
I've come to a place of knowing
I must get to know myself
I have nowhere else to go
I must face her, the inner me
shining bright, bleak and desolate
all pieces of the whole
little pieces scattered here and there
given to people for safekeeping
tears shed kept in a vial of memories
bidden forward I walk on into the future

What May Be
Thoughts of you sweet filled
The lonely hours of my night
You who stir my imagination so well
Brash and sweet, saucy and alluring
In truth
All my heart has sought
Have pity on a dreamer and don't mock
But with patience read my words
And let me share my dream with you
I have borne the thought since morning
Of you and I rising from a lovers bed
Still sleepy from the waking
Seeing you as you truly are
Without make-up and hair undone
As plain in your love to me
As I shall always appear to you
Yet, you need not...

Woman of My Dreams (2020)
you are the earth goddess
supernatural warm and loving
archetypal woman of my dreams,
it seems...
you're the warmth and sensuality
in invisible reality,
the place in which I'm found,
I feel you all around...
you are the molecular and atomic
etherically ergonomic
mind and soul in heart
with me though apart...
you're the fountain of appealing
sensitivity and too feeling
with rainbows from your light
dispelling the dark night...
you are sensationally compelling
emotionally upwelling ...

See you around
A breakup
Is this what you want
Nothing more
Once upon a time
I was your knight
Why'd you leave too soon
When our love is yet to bloom
You once said you're my moon
And I am the stars
Even at noon
You still make that glowing spark
You outshine the sun
Even though I'm rough and poor
You treat me like I have it all
You said this love
is just enough
That no matter what
You'd be the lightening to my thunder
That our mutuality will never go asunder
But those stuffs... ...

Cupid Has Left Us
If love was at your feet
Most would walk over it..
....over looking
because today is all about Vibes
Not about love inside
William Shakespeare wrote about
love that would prevail...
love so deep... it felt like a spell
Today love has no meaning
We evolved
Half not looking for love at all
Foolish we lay
Connection in sexual way
Leaving cold sheet
Hearts with no beat
Love evolved
Changing
.... now it has no figure
Like us!
It's hidden behind fake identity
From fake...
Most would walk over it..

Rare Vibration Of Love
That rare vibration of love
Rippling from her soul
Reaches out to the world
She changes the reality of dreams
With a simple smile
She is the cultivator of feelings
Her beauty slips out
Like a breath of air
There’s nothing that says love
Than the sparkle in her eyes
She grows on senses
Moving like an angel
Her light envelopes
The very fabric of being
That’s when love is alive
She opens up like a flower
Her scent so captivating
This garden of love is fertile
Waiting for...

Splitting Pain
You faint happiness, telling everyone at least I still have Pain
And you taught her ass to be a constant bitch and don't ever change
Hahaha I want cramps with each broken heart, yeah you heard what I said
I crave the sheer bliss of a razor raking across my dick head
Hard as fucking steel, engorged with to much fucking blood
X marks the spot to release the fucking flood
Paddle wack those fucking balls lets get shit numb
I like ass fucking Pain until her whole existence becomes numb
How would you like to be a bitch, just like...
And you taught her ass to be a constant bitch and don't ever change
Hahaha I want cramps with each broken heart, yeah you heard what I said
I crave the sheer bliss of a razor raking across my dick head

X marks the spot to release the fucking flood
Paddle wack those fucking balls lets get shit numb

Persephone
Debby was a beautiful girl, not only in heart but she had a beautiful spirit
Her soul wasn't of the silent sort, familiars claimed that they could hear it
Quick to try to right any wrong, uplifting motivation all day long
"We Are The World" her favorite of all time song
She considered herself a free spirit, one of the last true hippies
Casual in her dress, nose piercing, and a love to get a little tipsy
Popping up in social circles grabbing children of any color and acting silly
She was trailer park, ghetto, barrio, goth, rock, blues, city, and...

The Losing
The losing is the longest wait,
The finding is immediate, unexpected,
The gone a mere eye blink and done,
No, it is the losing that robs the heart.
The slow decay of affections,
The longer spaces between calls,
The attention ever diverted elsewhere,
The smiles directed beyond you, not to you.
The losing is a slow burn on the spirit,
An excruciating draw of energy,
The effervescent hope unwilling to die,
The crushing pain of unrequited love.
It is the losing that provides the physical pain,
The frostbite chill...
The finding is immediate, unexpected,

The losing is a slow burn on the spirit,
An excruciating draw of energy,
The effervescent hope unwilling to die,
The crushing pain of unrequited love.
It is the losing that provides the physical pain,

YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM YOU
When you go through something's that truly affect the depth of your heart and soul, as it can stimulate the mere deepness within the subconsciousness of your mind. You begin to feel like what is the point of trying to have an relationship of connectivity, with someone else who doesn't have the ability to understand wholeheartedly, that they hurt you with the lies and dishonesty and distrust and disloyalty and betrayal. Till it cuts so deeply within the depth of your heart, for there's been times when you needed them but instead they shut you out, leaving you alone and afraid feeling abandoned...
