Love Poems by New Members

I see it in your eyes, that quiet storm,
The way the shadows twist, the way they form.
You wear the weight like I’ve worn mine,
A burden carved in every line.
And though I’m lost, I can’t look away—
I want to pull you from the gray.

Even in this hollow place,
You’re the only thing that feels like grace.

You mean more than you’ll ever know,
In a world so cold, you’re the only glow.
Though I’m drowning, I’ll find a way
To keep you safe from the dark decay.
I don’t care if it pulls me through—
I’ll hold the light, if it...

I have an odd wish
To be devoured
To be known in my entirety
studied and then, inexplicably,
I want to be destroyed.

Taste me and spit me out
But know my taste
And know it well.

My wish involves wolves
And moonlight
And dark eyeliner.
There is soft hair, inexplicably,
I want to be destroyed.

Savour me. Me, a saviour.
I want to bless the mouth
Of a starving monster
So they will never, ever
Forget the sight of me.

Nor the feel of me
Upon a rough tongue
That...

Ugh.
Poets only write about love.
Love poems make me sick.
So, when I do write about love,
I don't write to an unknown lover.
I just write about Love herself.
Her raw and broken form.
I feel her deeply because she flourishes within me,
She's not as put together as the poets say.
She gets dragged round like a rag doll,
And sort of treated like a pet.
They speak of her as if she is Desire,
But most poets don't know,
She is actually Unknown.
She is the Storm,
Not the Sun or the Light.
She is the Breaking.
She...

Even if we don't speak,
you hold a place no one can seek.
A space you made, deep and true,
that only ever belonged to you.

Though time has pulled us far apart,
you'll always live within my heart.
