Victor Buhagiar Poet Free verse

Sometimes

I speculate where you are....sometimes.
Or how life's treating you....sometimes.
I question if you miss me....sometimes,
But definitely not all the time.
 
Those stormy days of love are over,
Oh I still feel the heat…..sometimes,
Full ruby lips like heated sweet red wine
Bubbling over mine.
For we did have our moments....sometimes
Sultry, provocative, passionate, real.
Times when we laughed, times when we cried.

No I do not miss you, not even sometimes,
For if you could really see me
You'll know that I'm someone else now...sometimes,
But often I am nothing, for curse you
I need you....most of the time.

Bj Legros Kelley January 3, 2024 at 4:56 PM Oh Victor, this is so sweet, I love this! I had read several of your previous poems today and the one about war scared me, the one about contaminants made me feel like buying only organic, and this? Aw, this is Victor's signature poetry, and so very lovely.

Christina Bowring November 9, 2023 at 11:52 PM This is so touching Victor but equally as powerful. Such a reflective reads that makes you pause with each ‘sometimes’. What a gift you have with how masterfully you can express such deep thoughts, emotions and make the reader really feel what is being conveyed. I love your poetry. Like many, I can relate to these words of anguish and so much more so it’s a fav for me too Victor. Hugs and blessings to you. Just wanted to say as well what a lovely thing dear Bill has said .

Bill Baker November 9, 2023 at 8:53 PM Thanks for sharing the feelings one goes through after losing a spouse or someone they loved, especially if for a long time, Victor. I admire your passion and love, your strength and faith, my friend. A manly hug for you brother, we care about you and your poetry. The holidays can be very challenging after such a loss. Stay active and don't be afraid to soup mail if you need to talk about anything. A poet friend in Texas, Bill

Silent One November 9, 2023 at 5:24 PM A lot of emotions here Victor..somtimes we pretend we do not feel, but deep inside we do so much...

Andrea Dietrich November 9, 2023 at 1:24 PM So interesting, just like those in love, you sometimes contradicted yourself in this lovely poem.

Evelyn Judy Buehler November 9, 2023 at 12:25 PM Your story, as usual, captivates, Victor. The recurring memories of lost love, accompanied by pain and regret, make this poem sad, but it's so beautifully expressed!

Eve Roper November 9, 2023 at 9:21 AM Heartfelt poem, wonder these questions. but it comes a time a person needs to move forward. But are we ready to release. Enjoyed reading my friend. Many blessings and hugs since Covid all the world have missed out.

Joseph P. DiMino November 9, 2023 at 8:13 AM The oscillating heart. Ain't that the truth! Brilliant write. Love it.

Sara Kendrick November 9, 2023 at 6:40 AM Sad one. You aptly described what one can feel when getting over a love affair gone awry. Thank you for sharing and for dropping by my page. Sara K

Lin Lane November 9, 2023 at 6:15 AM Your emotions dip and curve like a roller coaster in these lines, Victor. It's the pain of a love that was lost, is missed and your anger over it... sometimes.

Ink Empress November 9, 2023 at 6:02 AM I know this feeling so well, iv been there, this is so deeply moving and soul touching! That last line ah hits deep! Loved reading this

Vijay Pandit November 9, 2023 at 5:36 AM The ending line spells the essence of your poem, Victor.

Kim Rodrigues November 9, 2023 at 5:20 AM Excellent write, not sometimes but absolutely! Hugs! A fave!

Sotto Poet November 9, 2023 at 4:07 AM Victor, your poetry shows a high degree of skill. Its refrain relates discreetly to the idea that our intellect often conflicts with our heart's seeks. The poem captures the essence of transition and leaves us asking about other paths we may have chosen.

Deb M November 9, 2023 at 3:27 AM Love the Title and love the poem….very emotive Victor! Debx

Joseph May November 9, 2023 at 2:33 AM The refrain says sometimes, though the heart may say otherwise, Well penned Victor
