Lost Love Poems (2,650)

A s I retreat
..................inside my shell,
L ost I sigh
..................beside myself,
O nly me in
..................my own hell,
N o one to
..................beseech for help,
E mptiness is
..................where I dwell...

Stopped into a local spot for a drink,
Pulled up a stool and I ordered whiskey,
A "Hello" to the fellow sittin next to me,
We got to talking bout our JOB's,
I said "I'm head of manufacturing...",
"In fact I own a lie factory,
Crafting stories only I believe,
Fabricating fantasy and daydream,
See I pretend that she's still here with me...",
I said "I'm head of manufacturing...",
And " I been drowning in the whiskey and wine,
Tryin to hide this aching heart of mine,
While I tell everyone that everything's fine,
It's 9 - 5 on that production line",
Tipped my glass and I said "That's me...",
"Man, I'm head of manufacturing...",
"Line by line, that's just how I get by,
Though it breaks this aching heart of mine,
I keep smiling saying everything's fine,
Like she's with me and not some other guy,
See when it comes to lyin I'm the king,
Said "I'm head of manufacturing..."

If I love you, I keep you in my roots; you live in me.
Someday you'll leave, and this part of me will surely wilt.

I create a distance so there's less to miss.
Believing 'I need walls, I am tricked.
'Alone before it is time.

Like a grumpy fish
Fanning my fins slowly
Going nowhere in my tank
Nose pressed against glass
In water that never swirls
Except to stir the gravel
Suck out my wasted life
Are you happy now?
My watery cage is clean
Why don’t you set me free?
You with your disgusting
Bulging blue eyes and shiny teeth
Stop looking at me
Annoying taps on my wall
Of my artificial world
Is it night now?
Watched under a neon light
While you rest and smile
I want to bite you

Your lyin eyes
such a unique
disguise

You tell me of
hopes and promises
and dreams
you wish to come true

Yet, let's look at reality
from a realistic point of view

How we all would like to wave
a magic wand
and make the evil
go away
and to dream of a better day

You tell me you love me
you tell me there is nobody else
while you are laying in the bed
of your secret lover
as he is caressing
your breasts under the covers

You tell me if I love you
then prove it
and come to your
rescue

Yet, we know the truth
behind those lyin eyes
the fool outside looking in
will never win
You will never
compromise

How nice it would be
to trade one set of problems
for another
just to say we are now
finally together

To the fool who chases after
his dream
Be mindful of what you are chasing
not everything we see
is good for us
to be embracing

Lyin eyes seemingly cute
and wise
if only we knew the truth
behind the
disguise

Ah but one day your
lyin eyes
will catch up
to you
then they will be
crying eyes

She whispers sweet
nothings in our
ear..
and we cannot
hear it..
In her eyes are
the whisper of
true love..
Yet.. we do not
see it..
With her tamberine
she dances
for us..
but we do not
rejoice..
And with her heart
does come the
whisper of a
thousand passions..
But, Behold! we will
not receive it..
And in so doing
we break the heart
of a velvet night
whose stars fall
at the feet of
she who whispers..
and they weep..
For their joy
is no more..

The whole city is wet
From the rain.
All the night and a cold day
We are not together ...
It's a pity.....

Wet umbrellas
Over the wet bridges,
The light trembles
From the darkness
Taxi....

And it does not matter
Whose fault is it.
I walk longs the street
Alone,
The unspeakable wall
Of our words ..
Sadness...

There is nothing left,
The whole world
Has become like black
And white movie,
I know that you
Are still waiting for me,
But the love goes away
It will not return,
There are no tears
In my eyes.
it's just rain,
Goodbye

I don't think I can fall in love again
It hurts too much - and I don't understand
Women all they want - my physicality
They want me - yet they don't - my animality.

Across the net, I offer up my love -
Or pain's miss understanding (now it seems)
Who wants this man who's haunted? (an old cove)
Who seeks affection - but a painful dream.

I cannot risk my love (as if a bet)
If only money - who cares if it's lost?
I cannot risk my heart upon the net
I have the price but cannot pay the cost.

So I'm alone and lonely - no more tears
After drinking feelings are but numbed
Washed away too many nights - no piety
I'm faithless even in my new sobriety.

Some people can't accept, a simple life
They have to expand, by including strife
Whether they realise, we can only guess
Yet they must quickly accept, the stress
They administer, to their lover and friend
To spice up relationships, words they send
Chosen with care, to confuse with added pain
Personal control, aim to instigate and to gain
Power, when they believe they have none
So time after time, those close escape....run
