Best Ghosted Poems
It was a close-knit town hostile to strangers
that lost its citizens for imagined dangers.
Move-ins were rejected
and to threats subjected.
Shortly the population was two park rangers.
"Ghosted"
lost lullabies
disappear lilting
in my dreams
stolen
by pretender
the time thief
as if you were
never here
connected
golden chord
ghost
your crying heart
still carried
deep
within me

"As if your words are poetry
It's up to me to give the meaning
And I believe
That you are on a mission
To tell me something
About belonging"
It’s so hard to be vulnerable,
dealing with drama is horrible;
Decided to be real,
forgot you needed to heal;
Ghosted emojis are incorrigible.
got ghosted
them busters
left from me
write from them
words separation
slaved inhalation
inhale from me
this i that i am
who chose
or
chews
to be
me
hosted
got ghosted

In the tangled web of screens aglow,
Messages flicker, a delicate flow,
WhatsApp whispers beneath the night’s dome,
Facebook Messenger seeks a refuge, a home.
Seven months drift like clouds in the sky,
Memories linger, with time passing by,
You reached through the pixels, with laughter and cheer,
Yet shadows of secrets brushed close, drawing near.
Discord’s calls mixed with joy and with jest,
We spoke of the mundane, the trivial—just rest,
Friendships regained amidst silences vast,
A sanctuary built, from embers of past.
Yet the clock's hands spun, and the truth took its toll,
A heartbeat away from an unguarded soul,
Her name like a barrier, a bridge turned to stone,
A blockade on the channel we had called our own.
Blocked like a ghost who never could be,
In a world stitched with longing, we drifted, you see,
For what was our bond, but laughter and light?
Misunderstood echoes now lost to the night.
So here, in the silence, I ponder the fate,
Of friendships unthreaded by love's heavy weight,
And though we’re erased from each other’s view,
In the labyrinth of memory, I still think of you.
Inspired by long distance relationships.
did you see me there on the street?
in that moment when our eyes did meet
all i want is just a smile
even if it lasts just a while
you turned your back and walked away
as i tried to wave the other day
you see ,i am still the same
even if cancers playing its game
its still just me ,your old friend
i thought you knew its not the end
if you smile at me,you wont catch cancer
if you laugh with me it could be my answer
a ghost of sorts now i walk
i hope in time people will talk.
its just me ,your old friend
im still happy ,this is not the end.
do not be scared,i am no walking dead
i will beat this disease, enough said
smile at me, and heal my heart
don't make me a ghost and tear me apart
When i’m gone
They’ll all have moved on
I'm already a ghost
Haunting over the life id already lost
They’ve never saw me turn into a adult
I moved too fast
When i lost so young when i was gone i my tears taste like salt
I knew id never last
I sat waiting for god wondering why he’s running late
I stood waiting for love
When it came it was a shock now i understand my wait
He was always there watching from above
I may not be alive
but i have my family so i'm happy as i know how to be
watch my ghost thrive
Sacrifice, Strength, silence, and safety is what my closest taught me
For my mother who is caring, for my mother who is strong
For my sister who taught me everything for my cousins who beat me till i was strong, i missed them when i moved on
For my brother who taught me how to take love for the one who taught me me how to let go when their gone
For my father, who may one day choose me over his bong
Damn Green Dot!
Before I even met you something in me knew..
I'd listen to my iTunes and songs made me think of you.
When you'd walk by I'd get excited without really knowing why.
If we made eye contact I'd look away.. bashful, nervous, shy..
When we shared that dream I felt connected..ever since then..it's true.
I enjoyed getting to know you more and more..and flirting with you too. ;)
You made me laugh..made my days brighter.. they're darker without you here.
I feel like I ruined it all because I wanted more..and that's made me shed some tears.
I cant believe you disappeared without at least goodbye
After months and months of getting close
It often makes me cry.
I moved too fast and I do suppose
It's far time I let you go;
But I don't want to..I miss my friend
And I thought that you should know
This isn't how I pictured it or how I want it to end.
I see the damn green dot and get so hopeful
Will today be the day I hear?
Probably not.. Nope. Never again..
That's really what I fear.
But your charms and your allure just drew me in
So I can't help but shed a tear.
If what we had was just a dream
Then never wake me, dear.
You'll never know how much I think of you
And I'm hopeful when I say
That if you knew you were on my mind so much
You wouldn't let me slip away.
That's not so realistic because I know you need the space
To get over whatever it is you're feeling
Seems you want me gone without a trace.
What we shared was not made up and that's probably why I'm reeling
Thoughts all over.. feeling insane and all I want is healing.
So say goodbye and nice to know you, pretend you never cared at all
Because it's easier than wondering all day long if you ever think of me of if you'll ever call.
Just know that you'll missed so much and should we meet again
I hope you at least wave hello and consider me a friend.
there i sat at 1am
thinking about where i went wrong
as tears poured down my face
like an unearthly waterfall
i remember every conversation
trying though as to remember
why did they like me?
did they even truly like me?
or was it a game
only, someone has to put that blame on them
because i didn’t do anything wrong
or so i thought
yet i always catch myself
blaming it on me
once again.
“i pushed them away.”
“i wasn’t good enough for them.”
why do i think like that
if they really liked me
wouldn’t they have stayed
i’ve been ghosted
and i have only myself to blame
Being introduced to a new person is not easy as you do not know what to expect!
A friend spoke highly of her and her goals about how she was from a good family!
She would end up not being worthy of any respect!
Well, the friend failed to mention that she was from a broken home were her mother was the only family!
My friend failed to mention that she had prejudice beliefs about blacks, Asians, and Mexicans.
Being in her presence was bland as she did not have any amazement in her appearance.
My shock to her should have been enough for her to realize that I was appalled by her words
She did not try to show herself in a dating atmosphere as her clothes were full of animal hair, and it was as if she got out of bed was my observance.
With each conversation I came to find that she did not know of anything I spoke of; so, my friend lied about her intelligence
Her communication that once was long became short as if she no longer cared. Later on I was informed that she did not have to communicate everyday! Wow! This is a poor way to start any relationship. Wow after days of no words from her, I went my separate way.
Being ghosted for my intelligence is a blessing as a person cannot be in a relationship with a person that only wants to remain at the bottom of society.
It is better to be ghosted then emotionally drained by a person that only wants you on their time!
Do not fall into the trap of a fool as it will only make you bleed!
You got a habit vanish, then reappear
Preaching in riddles, then poof disappear
A priest with no parish, a faith with no proof
You speak in confessions but dodge every truth
I lit up the altar, I opened the door
You left your robe but not what it’s for
Fast with the scripture, slow to commit
Saint with a side chick, sermon ain’t it
You holy ghosted, vanished like sin
Then came back knockin’ like, “Baby, I’m in.”
But I don’t do rituals with boys in disguise
Or cross my heart for recycled lies
You kiss with verses, then fast like it’s Lent
Play humble and hungry, but I know you’re bent
You think I’m the pew you return to and kneel?
I’m the storm in the stained glass, not part of your deal
So bless your pattern, habit and all
But next time you vanish, don’t bother to call
I found my religion in mirrors and smoke
And learned not to worship where promises choke
They say it’ll pass
it’ll get better the longer it lasts
They say what’s done is done
but i don’t feel like i’ve won
You took my heart
tore it, broke it, till it fell apart
Now you play the victim
the hole you created, i sit in
I don’t want to become
the monster i’ve come from
Obsessed with yourself, with fame, with money
then you sit and describe her like sweet honey
You say it was harmless
a friendship, nothing more, but now I’m the farthest
You lied with a smile, called in love with a grin
while I drowned in silence, you let her in
In my silence, I find space to breathe
while all you do is leave, leave, leave
She pulls the strings
and I watch horror as the show begins
She has you at her beck and call
and you forget me as I suffer in school
You left me stranded, no reason, no clue
while she became your favourite view
You watched me break, still walked away
now I drown slowly, in the pain that you gave me
Some day you will pay
