Most Commented Lost Love Poems (2,650)

Focus on the sunrise
For dark is the setting sun
Focus on the new day it beckons you
For yesterday is done

He spoke to you of a love never ending
And he sang his majestic song
You offered your heart and he danced on it
Forget him now he's gone

Focus now on your many blessings
And not on the things that you lack
Close the book now it has been read
And vow to never look back ...

Black slippers
thong-toed strap
Hawaii in black raised on black
subtle, though significant.
White flowers adorn heel.
Black sole - thick, protective,
with concentric life rings
even-spaced, as if controlled.
These ever-widening circles
extend until they
fall off the edges
into the unknown.

Strap, once whole, now
dry, cracked, broken
taped together in an
attempt to salvage;
then taped again
and yet again
until little use remains –
only faded flowers and memories.
Still, one Hawaii intact
prevents moving forward
as it draws me into
the blackhole of your soul.

i will not remember you my love,
i will not remember us,
i will not recall our life at all,
i will not recall our bliss.

not for me a life of yearning,
not for me all doom and gloom,
i cannot be unhappy darling,
i cannot think of you to soon.

no reminisces of your kisses,
no reminisces of your wishes,
no memories from the things i do,
no memories to hold on to.

i must forget all the past,
i must forget it all at last,
i cannot think of all the cost,
i cannot think of all I've lost.

Midnight, I’m all alone…, again…,
Listening to thunder and rain and smiling from ear to ear…
Lying naked on my bed, trying to decipher Carlos Castaneda…
Whilst the “Rémy Martin” glass, filled with “Johny Walker Black”,
Is tilted by my hand every now and then…

After re-reading the same sentence six times,
I give up on Carlos Castaneda…
I toss and I turn, I toss and I turn…
I lie still this way, I lie still that way…
All to no avail, I can’t get her out of my mind…

Flashes of green, almost translucent eyes, are looking at me,
Now they smile shyly, now they search my soul, trying to unlock its mystery…
Now they shine mischievously, now they run and hide, afraid of what they might see…
Now they are serious, now they invite me to dive in and drink deeply…

Hands, shapely, youthful, meaningful, alluring hands,
Just lying there, waiting…
Tremulously, I reach out and explore their energy…
They respond, neutrally, cautiously, inquiringly…
I feel their energy, and I loose my equilibrium,
I take one of them to my lips, and caress it with a kiss, over and over and over…
They succumb, they enjoy, I succumb, I enjoy…

I have seen and kissed a few exotic lips…
But, these lips…, Oh, my god, these lips, stir a deep primeval urge deep within my breast[let’s stop at the breast shall we?]…
They are so full, they are so sensuous,
My imagination, climbs on a moonbeam and shoots off into the velvety blackness of infinite space at the dizzying speed of thought…

Somehow I manage to make her laugh, or was it the other way around…?
Her laughter explodes like sparkling diamonds, enthralling me…
Naturally, smoothly, our lips meet…
And heaven parts, as I am transported to the nether fields…
There, a concerned Eros, applies mouth to mouth resuscitation,
In a feeble attempt to project me back to the earth plane…
However, I only go back when the aphrodisiac has worn off…
In the fervent hopes of replenishing it…

She allows me to only get to base one of “the voyage of discovery” of her lethally exquisite neck…
I bury my spirit and my hungry lips in her intoxicating nape…
Assuaging my thirst just a tad…
I spend the rest of the day imbibing and wondering where she’s really from…

The heavens shook..
The slaughter of the innocents
have reached the throne
of love
And there was a great silence
in heaven..
A terrible blight has blackened
the skies of this lower world
A cry has gone throughout
the land
A mother weeping for her
children, 'for they are not'
A father lays prostrate for
he has no strength to stand
A nation agasp for the evil
that has visited the land
Tiny hands and magical smiles
have vanished in the night
And there was found no place
in the oceans for all the tears
The very stones cry out.. when
angles die..

i hand you a rose
one time red
turning black
darkness falls
drapes over
the light

as the strings
of this heart
play a lament
from deep
down inside

one soul cries
to the skies
a broken spirit
searching space

why me
it cries
what did i do
so wrong
in the beating
of my heart

each beat
a sword
tearing in pain
each string breaking

so deep a pain
burning this soul
the mind tormented
hell on a scale
love so cruel

each heartbeat
a pain
gasping
every breath burning
labored by
this ache

deep within
in my ocean
of tears
for you
did i
deserve this

tortured without sleep
walking in shadows
through eyes
of the dead
alone unloved
yet loved you
so deeply

afraid of love
as it hurts
a million miles away
this heart gone
cold dead
with love

Remember I love's perfect prime,
but will thou, my love, remember
the warmth of our September
that's grown old before its time?
When October bore winter's chill
that relinquished love, remember
in the sullen snows of harsh December
a thoughtful prayer that may kindle still.
Remembering that which once we had,
then wilt thou spare a tear for me
when all my days lifeless be,
or wilt thou smile and not be sad?

In withered thoughts no flower leave,
consign me to darkness and not grieve.

If I could, rewrite my life
And “Find” that acceptance
We all sometimes seek
And finally realise
That I cannot
Return to yesteryear
No more, than I can
Borrow time
And know, that as the clock
Ticks, then
That moment is gone
Never to return
In a myriad
Of other moments
For no two moments
Can be the same
And that “Change”
Is as inevitable
As “Time”

If I could, reside
Beside that lake
The one I named
“Humility”
And find “Myself”
Where I learn
That love
Is give and take
As is “Life”
And “Drowning”
In the whirlpool
Of past regrets
Has no place
In the future
Bidding “Adieu”
To self-pity
And leaving “remorse”
That tragic emotion
Where it belongs
In its own “Wake”

I would “Awaken”
To a new “Dawn”
A fresh beginning
Rising from the ashes
Of my “Past”
Imitating the”Phoenix”
Replacing all the emotions
Of tragic consequences
With a desire
To see all things
In a differing light
And that “Life”
Has so much more
To offer
If I could
Now live for today
And not for yesterday
If I could
If I could

from the skeleton's remains
i say goodbye
to a broken heart
cold and lonely

you never heard me cry
in the whispering clouds
were dreams are blown away
broken promises that were made

i never saw it comming
moister my teardrops
thunder and lightning
you brought on the storm
falling in raindrops

you upon the ground
the remains of you
in this part of me
the last of you found

from the remains
my heart will blossom
i will ditch the skeleton
for a new start

no more tears
just regrets
wasted years

I guess I'm done,
There's nothing left for me here,
You had your fun,
I guess I'm done,
You played the fool,
Used me like fuel,
That wasn't cool,
Baby you broke the rules,
When I needed you most,
You were a ghost,
I just want you to know,
That's when I let you go,
I guess I'm done,
There's nothing left for me here,
Yeah you had your fun,
I guess I'm done,
Now its the end,
Now we're just friends,
My heart is broken and I'm
hurting again...
I guess I'm done,
I guess I'm done...
