Poetry about lost love, heartbreak and relationship problems
tingle
tingles on my body tell me something is up
shadows cross my path
and my lively spirit buddies hush
when usually have plenty to say
I get chilled
it doesn't feel like anyone is there
it feels like emptiness
a hole where matter should be
I know someone is trying a sneak attack
or it could possibly be a discussion
they know better than to send their goons
with their slimy business card
a peace negotiation has been on the table for a long time
these beings have refused to come in
and my father says it's too late ...

Brisk walk, windchill
Leaves paint shadows on the sidewalk
A small flock of sparrows flit away
Avoiding my footfalls
A book tucked under my arm
I think of you fondly
It's the distance
Sending signals across the pond
Marred by fatal crossings
Leaves paint shadows on the sidewalk
A small flock of sparrows flit away
Avoiding my footfalls
A book tucked under my arm
I think of you fondly
It's the distance
Sending signals across the pond

Pigeon Love
I wondered when we met
why those beady eyes were brooding
You smothered me with feathers
and started your canoodling
If only you'd stepped back
and allowed me space to breathe
before you fetched a ring
and got down on one knee
Reading all your mails and texts
would drive a bird to drink
so I've thrown away my phone
and I don't care what you think
I've changed my name and flown
to an island that's remote
a place you couldn't visit
not even with a boat
Next time you're on a date
be sure...

Please leave your name, number, and reason for calling, and I'll return your call promptly.
Mangled and torn,
I still ask for you.
It's your name,
that stumbled past my teeth.
It's you,
who will not come.
Yet I call,
and will continue to.
The sirens are loud,
and sound like your voice that night.
With bright lights above,
I feel empty and cold.
The continued silence
of my phone fills the air.
Hope grows weary,
and my cheeks are dried.
I see your hands,
reaching for me.
But they are not yours,
for they are gloved and cold.
Your warmth is not here,
and...

Never call me again
You know your mouth gets you in a lot of trouble
You blew it when you told me you loved me
It's a good thing you were on the phone when you said that
I would have embarrassed the shit out of you in public
You talk so much shit
I would love to shove it right down your throat
Nobody loves me
You want something from me
Everybody wants something
You say you love me and then you'll use it against me later
Like some courtroom scene
Love is a weapon
It's like pulling a loaded gun on me
You should have never fucked with me ...

My Old Soul, Your Young Heart
Wistful dreams shall never part.....
...through the years, I've thought of you
and once upon a starry night
you simply came to me
right out of a gentle blue light.....
…...drenched memories,
forbidden ( I touched you)
and for that I apologize for what I'd
almost done
remembering the moment
that you looked in my eyes
knowing that an enchantment was growing....and one day you could be the one
my“now or later”
…..you disappeared into the night
I have continuously thought...

the owner of the house came back
do you know the space where two train tracks meet?
somewhere along those lines, the air smelled like defeat
something about that old house told us we were meant to stay
something for the strays
but nothing on the trays
the ambiguity of reality upon seeing cracked fine china
poems on the floor we thought were as old as a millennia
the bedsheets always seemed like there was someone loving me
something for the lovers
but nothing left to see
but then the owner of the house came back
with a suitcase of corn bread and a...

accusations assault my dignity
inspires a melody in my soul that I know well
my pride steps aside and lets me be myself
sling the dirty expletives they have no power here
lose the arrogance and realize you may not be right
I sing a song of subtly
my sighs rise and with whispers, I make my stand
release tension with a smile
then you'll know anger is a hollow foundation
as it dissipates on the winds
free the rage that doesn't belong to you
don't pick it up from someone in a bad mood
and allow them to give you an unhappy...

De Novo
It was like the world didn't exist,
Or maybe it slowed,
Or maybe it blurred,
Or maybe it was flying by,
but, I was anchored still.
No, not just the world,
I think the universe stopped moving.
I think it all simultaneously seized to exist.
I think maybe there were silent fireworks
somewhere in the distance.
When we closed our eyes:
Maybe we were floating
Maybe we were free diving
Maybe gravity lost its meaning
...for a little while. ...

I asked
I asked for a kiss
She didn’t
Could have asked nicer
I couldn’t
She wasn’t interested
I wouldn’t
Thought our life was great
It isn’t
Should have done more
I hadn’t
Had to look for another
I shouldn’t
This is not my fault
It wasn’t
It all started when I asked
She didn’t
She didn’t
Could have asked nicer
I couldn’t

I hadn’t

This is not my fault
It wasn’t
It all started when I asked
She didn’t

He Keeps Me Softly Floating Within His Esoteric Clouds
A night of relishing our heart desires
This moth getting hot from the heat of his flaming fire
Here I stand in the shadow of lust
Anticipating in the cathedral of midnight, the attentiveness of his touch
Soothing me
Caressing my skin, kissing me all over tenderly
Softly whisper in my ear, my earlobe with his tongue, he teases
Pulling me into a pillar of comfort, biting down on my lip behind the pleasure of being pleased
Making me feel, want, he weakens me, the impression of his being I crave, I need
Giving me his heart, coveting me...

Omni-absence
Drifting
As time turns slowly into space
It's worse than feeling out of place
Calling the sentiments out of line
Tasting something bitter and dry
Calling
Shadows blur and twist together
What's been cast aside explodes further
Nothingness will not be the curtain call
It's all endless until the corridors break
Challenge
The might of the outer sea
Bursting in torment eternally
Until the past is far away
And there's nothing else than paste
Blurry eyes call casts of pain
Limbs are locked in place ...
