Lost Love Poems (2,650)

Oh, do I really want too much?
Tell, did for more I ever ask?
All that I want from you is smile,
All that I want from you is smile,
Tell, is it much, too much to ask?

I know my hair is showing white,
I know old age will soon arrive,
All that I want from you is smile,
All that I want from you is smile,
Tell, is it much, too much to ask?

It’s only you to me that's left,
Heart's aching for you’re far away,
It is torment, but there's no other way.
Know not from where my longing comes,
Know not why thirst for you is such.
Tell, what is it you want with me?
What is the wrong to you I've done?
Tell, what is it you want with me?
What is the wrong to you I've done?

Oh, do I really want too much?

There may come a time
When memory of places that we used to be
Fade away and die
like last years autumn leaves
I will close my Eyes
I still see your shinning smile
and in my heart
I will be with you once more

Outside my broken window, the light begins to fade ...
at least that's how the evening tide makes it seem...
I look into my closed mind ,
to see if I can walk the night ...
to bridge the gap ,
to keep close to me ,
the warm, life giving light...
I look outside my window broken ...
and what remains of this life ,
kneading and treading the old paths,
cognizant and privy to the new ....
with a measure of heart,
standing...with shields of Faith,
Hope and Love,
I will traverse the landscapes before me,
those paths most welcome...and those not.

Hear your voice I over again,
Hear and pale I grow,
As with the soul I parted ways
With loveliness of yours!

Had a torment like this I known
Early at crack of dawn,
I wouldn’t have loved, I wouldn’t have nursed
The olive-skinned gypsy girl.

What is the point to heat up in vain
Blood that has frozen in veins?!
To love me you, alas, have failed,
While I am unable to forget.

It is so dark in the forest of concrete and steel.
I sense the rushing busy souls without feel
I can hear the shouting and cries of despair
I can smell the new days danger in the air
I know my lonesome way to stay free
but one day I follow the calling
for my soul and she !

I'd kid myself - I have now a heart left to break?
(Seven days ago, that night and afternoon).
Your so cold, and do tonight, this heart forsake
With cruelty - (and I'm so glad I saw it soon); -
In too deep already, and on the make
(As now my heart does sink in bluest gloom); -
One night of passion - and then left all alone -
Other hearts I've met - though not a heart of stone.

Seven days ago - do I deceive myself?
You touched me deep inside - one night of passion.
Though now it seems you've left me on the shelf
Or is spite now in lovers back in fashion?
Oh well at least I won't feel all bereft
Even though (it seems) you took my cash in -
I'm just glad I never bought you sapphire
Not out of pocket too much, little liar.

Have you no heart? (Or what is left of it) -
Is it all you want - a one-night stand?
Well I'd go on and put my foot in it
Had you a heart (you say) that you command?
I ask why tomorrow - my worst critic
(Which is myself) my heart you reprimand.
Well, Ms what can I say? Now you've hurt me
Best look for love elsewhere now - well surely?

shattered pieces all around some lost forever some washed ashore, did you find the other half of the one you gave me...

cleft asunder pieces of you and I
touch softly the debris it's all I have left over of who you once were, to me my one love...

in my hand I gently hold that one perfect being you once had been just for me only for me
love tied me tight but oh so softly it encircled my ' being' not a drop did mess the earth with blood

even traces shall not be here or anywhere

never shall be
ever no more

I Miss you
A little too much
A little too often
And a little more every day
Thinking of you
I miss you

Hey, why are you knocking at my door
what could you possibly want me for
Pain is resurfacing seeing you here
but you knew that when deciding to appear

Don't dare stand there claiming to have cared
mutual love and respect was never shared
I constantly gave of myself while in turn you just took
you maliciously hurt me by showcasing a provocative look

I was just a game you figured would be easy to play
I'm certain you felt superior treating me that way
Passion turned into something I had to beg for
when we had sex you made it seem like a chore

From you deception wasn't the only consistent thing I got
you also made sure my emotions stayed tied in a knot
Pain you induced daily I couldn't let show on the outside
tears I cried because of you fell plenty on the inside

Why you decided to do me the way you did is truly sad
you'll regret losing the best you could ever have had
I graduated from the road of getting over you my dear
you get to witness me shed for you this one last tear

When together you chose to act as if you were free
so take all your vile mendaciousness and flee

Within the pails of shattered dreams,
the lies of tongues, twisted and foul.
Beneath the tears of molten streams,
the jest of minds, riven with scowl.
Does it matter anymore?

Straight into my heart's descent,
far below a life's ascent.
What's left to adore?
Left alone to face despair,
to suffocate in abundant air.
What's not to abhor?

Through the years, I kissed your pain,
I faced your fears, I took the blame.
Your restless heart, no one can tame,
my freedom now begets your shame.
It doesn't matter anymore.
