POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Deep, artistic, emotional, unique & open minded. I explore the art of poetry as a young owner of a broken heart, but with a huge smile on my face with the willingness to learn more.
Hell in Paris
"Hell in Paris" by Gal E. Cohen
It all started as a romantic evening with Ron in the city of lights. Vintage love songs were playing in the background of the restaurant. We just stared at each other with delight and patience. The world could’ve crashed down and we still wouldn’t have moved a bit. Finally the waitress arrived with the bill. She rested a black leather folder in the table. I reached out but Ron had beaten me to it. He beamed with satisfactory, “This is my treat, Melissa.” Ron was such a gentleman.
“I don’t know what to expect next from you,” I smiled as he...

The Human Lies
"The Human Lies" by Gal E. Cohen
I fell for it every time back in the day
You used to have a sweet heart
And I was naïve for I couldn’t deny
Those blond curls that just made my day
A smile that made me want to play
He is an overdose
Tastes like coke but worth as much as cocaine
You can never get enough
Though he’s danger
Stopping is tough
Tense alone
Wild with friends
The human lies
I knew he liked to play the ball
But more than home base seemed way too far
I bet he’d tell all his friends
Fresh...

Forgiven and Touched
"Forgiven and Touched" by Gal E. Cohen
To know the innocence trapped within your soul
Is to know your way in life
Thinking of love and depression, the only things at minding space
Talented hands you have, capable of breaking hearts
Hearts lovers like us own
Lovers who don’t know what to do
Step by step, one at a time
You get closer to that house of his
The doorbell silent like eyes
Tongues come in contact and the feelings separate
But still seem interested in each other’s tonsils
Light, slight touches over your heart of...

Craving For Tears
Craving For Tears" by Gal E. Cohen
In love with the pain
Craving for tears
Holding on this guilt
Haunting me for years
No other direction
That I can see or choose
Trapped in this love maze
Locked up with you
Eyes always wonder
Looking around
What I did to deresrve this
Heart has burned down
So my soul is still searching
For peace and for care
For someone who will notice
If I am or not there
You’re a beautiful human
Even hurt still runs through me
But I can’t stay away ...
In love with the pain
Craving for tears
Holding on this guilt
Haunting me for years
No other direction
That I can see or choose
Trapped in this love maze
Locked up with you
Eyes always wonder
Looking around
What I did to deresrve this
Heart has burned down
So my soul is still searching
For peace and for care
For someone who will notice
If I am or not there
You’re a beautiful human
Even hurt still runs through me
But I can’t stay away ...

Technology Love Failure
"Technology Love Failure" by Gal E. Cohen
A single tear running down a cheek
A single drop of perfume
A single heart attack when you video called
That was all
Surprised to hear your voice
Surprised to see your face
Surprised to enjoy myself
Surprised to hear the same
That is not all
Happy to engage seriously
Happy to confirm friendship
Happy to be alive
Happy to be more than friends
That is almost all
Sad it was fake
Sad he was with you under the desk
Sad it was not your words
Sad you were...

A Better Place With You
I know there’s some bridges that we need to cross
But the ocean isn’t wide if you help me across
In your strong arms
Your big strong arms
I know how people talk about the differences of our ages
And about how we are each in a different stage in life
This life
CHORUS
But with you I think there’s no limit to what I can do or feel
While gravity still pulls me down to earth
Where my feet are standing
Waiting for you to sweep them off
And take them to a better place
I know it might be hard to cope with all this nonsense...

Butterfly
"Butterfly" by Gal E. Cohen
Too bright to ignore
So dark you get sucked in
So hard to let go, but I must begin
I ignored all the sayings
Of those ones who spoke truth
Defended you in pain meaninglessly
That’s what I get in return
To deep not to fall in
So unclear, it’s mysterious
My guard, down
The fake you, exposed
Not the slight sight of nice joy
Deaf of love, happiness and belonging.

The Magician
The Magician" by Gal E Cohen
She served herself to him on a silver platter
To find five magic wands running all over her
“You can poke me, cut me, bite me, kiss me, love me!”
She gasped asking for more sensations
“You shall do as you wish…”
It was the delicacy in his skin
That caused her an endless grin
Never wanted to abandon that bed
Feeling surrounded but safe
Grabbing pulling all in reach with body widely exposed
They shared a connection of all the good in the world
She served herself to him on a silver platter
To find five magic wands running all over her
“You can poke me, cut me, bite me, kiss me, love me!”
She gasped asking for more sensations
“You shall do as you wish…”

That caused her an endless grin
Never wanted to abandon that bed

To Be Free
"To Be Free" by Gal E. Cohen
To be awake
To be surrounded by the unknown
To be living, breathing
To be giving and taking
To be willing to love
To be realizing those dear to your soul
To be coming to conclusions to those actions which make you whole
You are still young, you are very alive
Feel the vibe and send yourself free
To be awake
To be surrounded by the unknown
To be living, breathing
To be giving and taking
To be willing to love
To be realizing those dear to your soul
To be coming to conclusions to those actions which make you whole
You are still young, you are very alive
Feel the vibe and send yourself free

Beautiful
"Beautiful" by Gal E. Cohen
Legendary power withholding the universe
Cursing and feeding on innocence lives
Appealing and appearing elegant to the human eye
Approaching in silence and leaving with pain
I cannot do so
I can’t hurt a soul, can’t touch a thing
Spending time in tragedies
Feeling deeply drowning oceans
Showing smiles to cover up
Locking away any threat
Stepping back from opportunities
Living in fear of reality
Dreaming, waiting, hoping to hear truth
Legendary power withholding the universe
Cursing and feeding on innocence lives
Appealing and appearing elegant to the human eye
Approaching in silence and leaving with pain
I cannot do so
I can’t hurt a soul, can’t touch a thing
Spending time in tragedies
Feeling deeply drowning oceans
Showing smiles to cover up
Locking away any threat
Stepping back from opportunities
Living in fear of reality
Dreaming, waiting, hoping to hear truth
