Lines From A Lonely Place.
Hark ! In the distance, a begrudging sneer,
A prying eye spies my falling tear,
Crashing on the page, this verse to smear,
If only they knew my plight !
In this wretched space so lost and alone,
Soft heart transformend to hardened stone,
A seeping wound much deeper than bone,
Draining my will to fight !
My head bent low with dolor profound,
Scolding tears to stain the ground,
Nature my second love, gathers around,
I could kiss a tree this night !
For now, love's future destitute,
Sympathetic gestures I will refute,
Thoughts of her, this pain dilute,
Pitch darkness with a sprinkle of bright !
Just take me away to a tearful place,
'Neath a willow to share her weeping space,
Whose drooping limbs will me encase,
And hide my grief from sight !
A loveless mess, I fall distraught,
No lesson learned, yet harshly taught,
For her I'd once again get caught,
I hold not grudge nor spite !
I know I'll quell this relentless pain,
Self pity to hold no earthly gain,
My self belief I pray regain,
God please ! Send me some respite !
A prying eye spies my falling tear,

Draining my will to fight !
My head bent low with dolor profound,
Scolding tears to stain the ground,

About this poem:
I don't enjoy posting sad verse........There is some good news, this is old,
and I'm sorted now.
tears of love
sun shining happiness
lost in
an amazing
warm dream
the deep drums
bang on heartbeats
sweetly stroking feelings
beautifully rolling
skips beats
upon a guitar
hunting music
emotions raising
the bar
magically one violin
begins to play
swelling sadness
drifts music
floating upon air
a lone fiddler
standing on
the rooftop
enchanting sorrow
playing shadows
sweet lamenting treasure
cries out
from this heart inside
come back
into the arms
of love sailing
upon these seas
an ocean
crowning princess
kissing cheeks
pearl drops falling
treasures of love
falling for you
lost in
an amazing
warm dream
the deep drums
bang on heartbeats
sweetly stroking feelings
beautifully rolling
skips beats
upon a guitar
hunting music
emotions raising
the bar
magically one violin
begins to play
swelling sadness
drifts music
floating upon air
a lone fiddler
standing on
the rooftop
enchanting sorrow
playing shadows
sweet lamenting treasure
cries out
from this heart inside
come back
into the arms
of love sailing
upon these seas
an ocean
crowning princess
kissing cheeks
pearl drops falling
treasures of love
falling for you

To Be Your Lover
I know it's been a long time since you've heard from me.
I know you have a new life now, I know you're happy,
I know I can't deny that I still care for you
thoughts of you fill my days whether or not I want them to.
When I loved you, every moment shared was like a tropical sunrise
there was no price that could buy the feeling of looking into your eyes
but in what seemed like an instant, you discarded it all
through gods grace I survived that long and turbulent fall
I have a new life too,
I just feel theirs a few things that we should address
Its my fault for putting you on a pedestal so high,
by doing so we could never see eye to eye
You swept me off my feet, but let me land on my face.
With no contrition on your part just silence and space.
Do you ever feel bad for your treatment of me? Is there ever remorse?
or are your actions then and now simply par for the course?
I just wanted to give you my heart, was that really so bad?
I'm sorry it wasn't good enough, it was the only one I have.
Am I asking to many questions? Should I just move on like you?
I'm not as heartless as that, so just please hear me through
I just wanted to know why you never fought for what we had.
Why you let it, no, helped it fade; ever so fast.
Does all the money you have now comfort you at all?
Can it bring you a love that is unmeasurably tall?
Like the love you threw away that I was once had for you.
I have to be honest though, I'm not glad that were through'
This is not a plea for you to come back into my life.
Long gone are those dreams of us being husband and wife.
Long gone is the chance for you to ever find someone
that will love you like I did. That day will never come.
It true what they say about one mans trash being another treasure
I know you have a new life now, I know you're happy,

About this poem:
for lost love I still care for you and always will
Good bye...
My heart started to cry...
It's been crying a long time now
Saying good bye
Seems like tears are the norm...
And I want to stop but I don't know how
Everyday I think of you
And all the things we used to do...
Wondering if you were a dream come true
But now it feels like I scarcely know you
The signs foretell
What my body and soul knows well
You've gone and left me
Maybe not physically
But
Certainly mentally...
I yearn for you and ache in places I never knew
But know that I will never tell you
I feel like running and shouting,
Screaming and jumping
Throwing a tantrum or two
But.... No,
That will never do
So much to say, So much to do
I dreamt of doing it all with you
But now I am awake,
I dream no more
And the visions evaporate
As I watch you leave through that door...
So I will grit my teeth,
Wear my brightest smile
Even though I want to die
And I will stand and close the door
And open it nevermore.
It's been crying a long time now
Saying good bye
Seems like tears are the norm...
And I want to stop but I don't know how

About this poem:
(sigh)..... for all those brokenhearted people..... only a word of advice, live love laugh..... and pray that God gives you the strength to open that door another day.I will always love you until my dying day
Would you just listen and please don't say a word, just yet,
I'd like you to think back to the very first time we met,
How you felt around me? The memories we shared,
And just remember that once upon a time, you really cared.
Now think about how we parted, and how much I cried,
But please don't speak, remember that I never ever lied,
That I told you the honest truth about why we were to split,
But now I'd like you to know that my heart brokes bit by bit.
The pain is deep, unbearable and painful,for so many years,
I'll never forget all the sadness, all the uncontrollable tears,
Slowly I am rebuilding my life, I am content with what I've got,
And although it is hard I am beginning to forget what I have not.
You were a special part of my life that I will never forget,
A part of my life that left me heartbroken, but that I regret,
You gave me some happy memories that I'll keep in my heart,
Although sometimes I wish that you and I didn't have to part.
You were my first true love and only love, that will always be so,
After all of the heartache, sadness and never ending pain, I know,
You and I had something special and that will never change,
Because I love you and loving someone else seem strange and will always seem wrong.
Would you just listen and please don't say a word,
I'd like you to remember that once upon a time, we said forever,
That I had hopes of true love dreams and that you was the one who threw it away,
And ill tell you something I will always love you until my dying day.

About this poem:
my first love and i really did love him but he cont see how much i cared its so sad when this happens because if he had taken the time to see real true love that was right in front off him and that he dint have to do what he did and for him to be so hung up on others. we would still be together and happy i don't even think he understands what he has done wrong and how different we could have been together all i want is one chance to talk to him to try make him understand that i was faithful the hole time i was with him and that he was wrong" Doors "
Sun set the day that door closed
strength faded,
the love's lost
the light,
energy he brought
taken away,
hidden down all
Darkness covered the horizon
time of rest from long day gone
quite a relief just for few
yet real solitude for one
While away for quite some time
silence and thoughts left behind
even it seemed so later
he's back,
certainly sooner..
Clouds dropped rain the door closed
cold wind touched me
as it blows
something I wished without end
failed and hindered by the rain
For others,
it's refreshing
day's long heat met its ending
plants and dried soil freshened
but for me, it’s like an end
even time seemed so later
rain stops, definitely sooner..
When one door closes, whispered
by an angel opens another.

The Arrow
So, when did you decide
to rip my heart apart?
Now I'm dying inside
of my own broken heart.
The pain still remains
like the moon does after dark.
So, go ahead and take your aim
and shoot that arrow through my heart!
Can't you see my pain?
Or is it too much to take?
For I am the broken one,
and you are FAKE!
Where do I go from here?
I want to love again,
but there is so much fear
to try to love another man.
I feel like part of me has died.
Where do I bury my heart?
I can't dig a hole big enough
to give me a brand new start.
Finally, I take a breath,
and move on with my life.
Since my heart is dead,
got to bring it back to life.
I'll take the arrow,
that pierced my heart,
and make a fire with the wood
so I can seal up all the holes.
Now my heart is alive.
No scars will it bare,
I can make it love again,
all because you didn't care!!

About this poem:
Wrote this peom when my ex left me. I was devastated. You can almost hear the tears fall....
Free
Free, that I am but it is not what I wanted,
To be beaten and whipped like captive in gauntlet,
A parting loves end, the path of your choosing,
Unaffected by this mans' head and heart bruising,
And your blood is colder than late Winters' frost,
And now most certainly all has been lost,
For what is free when the heart aches from longing?
The head and the body are sick from the wanting,
No recourse or remedy, no proper redress,
No! Freedom for me tis a fate worse than death!
w.b. JS

About this poem:
Love, withdrawal symptoms. Not in this place at the moment but I've been there, so have you. Thanks for reading.
Going Sixty
He was only going sixty as he headed down the highway
Sadly he looked in the mirror and saw his hair with more gray
Memories took over his mind and tears made his eyes a blur
He was only going sixty and starting to lose his nerve
As he came up the drive,the birthday party had begun
They all had planed such a great surprise
And he took out his sunglasses to cover over his eyes
He wanted no one to know he was missing someone
He was thinking of a lady from not so long ago
Then they placed candles on the cake and set them all a glow
And soon another year would come and sixty one would be heard
He was going sixty and starting to lose his nerve
Sadly he looked in the mirror and saw his hair with more gray
Memories took over his mind and tears made his eyes a blur
He was only going sixty and starting to lose his nerve
As he came up the drive,the birthday party had begun
They all had planed such a great surprise
And he took out his sunglasses to cover over his eyes
He wanted no one to know he was missing someone
He was thinking of a lady from not so long ago
Then they placed candles on the cake and set them all a glow
And soon another year would come and sixty one would be heard
He was going sixty and starting to lose his nerve

To be in love with he
Is so sad for me
My head says its not meant to be
My heart says to hurry up and flee
Will he ever love me
The way It should be
Is there something wrong with me
He doesn't love me
The way I love he
Tears are starting to sting
They're in a constant stream
I'm working up the courage
To leave he
I know he loves me
Just not enough for me
Or the way it should be
I hoped
That he would love me
The way I love he
It's never going to be
I had to say good bye
To he
Is so sad for me
My head says its not meant to be
My heart says to hurry up and flee
Will he ever love me
The way It should be
Is there something wrong with me
He doesn't love me
The way I love he
Tears are starting to sting
They're in a constant stream
I'm working up the courage
To leave he
I know he loves me
Just not enough for me
Or the way it should be
I hoped
That he would love me
The way I love he
It's never going to be
I had to say good bye
To he
