Best Lost Lovesweet Poems


Summer Fete

Windows of opportunity to drift out on the willows
A kiss lost, next to the waters’ gloss
 
More than guesses were intact
Lining up to act upon a string instrument under a sunshine star
There a sweet, sweet girl and classical guitar
 
Self-administer a sweet smell as the general public demonstrate kiss and tell
The first time sun kissed feet meet is the first great feat
And more to scratch into a journal of the dog days heat
 
Few bare bodies are shown to hide
His first summer at the bank side
 
He’s an abrupt sounding cuss
But he’s got good heart in ways
He hates to kick up a fuss
But he hates to part a brief gaze
 
She darted a meaningful glance that made a tiny fish dance
And now his dreams were stolen and sold, and pushed for the old
Now, to a stop a boy to grow up being ever cold
 
To ponder and smile on his late night pillow
To think about the sun, the summer and the willow
 
But the kiss lost, next to the waters’ gloss…
 
Its he she’s loving, it’s his nothing she’s for
To him, really nothing more than a boy to ignore
But just for you did she let choose a boy to adore
 
Windows of opportunity to drift out on the willows
A kiss lost, next to the waters’ gloss...

Naked Before Me

I see you with her
and I know from your eyes
your vision whirled
You hold her hand
and when our gaze met
you unclasp it
No need to hide honey
I know we expired
I thought at first
Time would make us wine
But it just turned us into
a fluid in the mouth
Fermented from sleep
sour, smelly, unswallowable
Your ways of loving
were exposed before me
When our gaze locked,
Don't bow your head yet-
I'm still recollecting it
How sweet you love
Rather how sweet you lie?
The way you thawed my heart
by the heat of your tongue
and now I prove
that tongue's no better than a snake's
and Oh! how sensational you love
You always sent me screaming
through the night
But don't be ashamed honey
if your skill is naked before me
Cause I know for certain
That the lady whom you're with
Will fall to no better than my fate.

Lost But Not Forgotten

Some time has passed
from when i thought
the music flowed a soar,
and golden trumpets 
sprang from the heavens
to finally play once more.

And from those sweet melodies
of which it was derived
then owed to you of this,
composiums so grand,
my soul could taste it,
this sweet eternal bliss.

Alas my heart
has lost the beat
to which the music plays,
and through the turmoil
from within my chest
my feet felt swept away.

Caught in this current,
desperately trying to swim
to reach you once again,
though my endeavor,
quite unsuccessful,
my love will never end.

Premium Member A Village Encounter

From Queens to Manhattan, I rode the subway.
I will never forget that late spring day,
when I walked into that Greenwich Village café.
This young girl practically stole my heart away.
With a long white dress, and a six string guitar,
she was just another wannabe star.
I was sitting not far away from her at the bar.
Between sips of my glass of seltzer,
I listened to each sweet note sung by her.

The end of her performance brought a light ovation.
She sat next to me for some casual conversation.
After an informal introduction came a sweet little smile.
I was attracted to her all the while,
even though she was Jewish, and I a gentile.
I told her I also performed in a band.
She wrote her phone number on my left hand.
Everything with this female appeared just right.
I asked if I could see her tomorrow night.
She emphatically said “okay” and smiled with delight.

Later that night, disappointment would encumber.
When I tried to call her, I got a wrong number.

Daily Long I To Hear Again

Daily long I to hear again
Sweet tales told me in warm moonlight
When birds no longer chirped nor sang
Sweet songs sang you in bright sunshine
When mortar and pestles in unity pounded
Long, long ago it was

Sweet stories of love rolled out of your mouth
When chickens were roosting in closed baskets
Sweet tunes emanated from your lovely throat
When prying eyes had closed in deep sleep 
Long, long ago it was

In warm embrace rested I on your shoulders
When lost was I in the paradise of your love
In total submission trusted I your sweet tongue
When sweet smelling flowers of love blossomed
Long, long ago it was

And then came the years of the hungry locusts 
Then the sweetness of the songs stopped
The ever flowing fountains of the tales ran dry 
The young roses catching fire withered coldly
The warm moonlight came no more
The bright sunshine came no more
Your sweet tales I heard no more
Your sweet voice sang no more 

But daily long I to hear again
Sweet tales told me in warm moonlight
Sweet songs sang you in bright sunshine

Que Sera....On Love

Que Sera...On Love
I've given up on Love.
And it`s given up on me
I guess it just hasn't been mean`t to be.
Things aren't always as they seem, you see.
I've known Love and it will always be there with me.
But enough is enough, it`s too hard to bare.
I miss those sweet kisses and the snuggle, buggle days.
I miss your soft touch and your tempting, teasing plays.
I miss your warm smile and your silly sinful ways.
I've given up on Love.
And it`s given up on me.
My heart is in pieces, like a puzzle without one piece.
What`s the use of putting it together?
It`s just not the same.
I think I`m the loser in this life, we call a game.
Some days I just scream and want to sit and curse your name.
But who am I kidding, you`re not the only one to blame.
What we had is gone now.
And it`s just a damn shame.
I've given up on Love.
And it`s given up on me.
Que sera, Que sera.
Things just weren't mean`t to be.
Don`t think you can come by with your sweet talkin way.
Thinkin that your talkin will make me go play.
I just can`t keep doing this, it`s not right, it`s not fair.
Please just go away and don`t come over here.
This time in my life, I`m seeing things clear.
Stay away, stay away, don`t come over here.
I've given up on Love.
And it`s given up on me.
I know you don`t want to leave.
I know you don`t want to go.
We both know it`s the right thing, this you do know.
What we have for each other will always be there too.
I've got to bury it down deep, and move on.
You do too.
But it still hurts none the same.
You know that to be true too.
Move on to where?
Move on to what?
I've given up on Love.
And it`s given up on me.

Broken Heart

Broken heart
Cracked and bleeding
That is how I feel today

Leaving now is
hard to handle
After seeing
your sweet face

Trying not to 
feel the gnawing
Buried deep inside
my chest

Can't forget the
two sweet kisses
As you touched
your lips to mine

When you wrapped
your arms around me
Time stood still
and hearts entwined

Amazing eyes 
so warm and gentle
Soft and filled
with love were they

Lost and Lonely
draw me closer
Two old friends
that time forgot

Broken heart
cracked and bleeding
Time will but a bandage be

Round the bandage seeps
my life’s blood
Draining as I onward go

Broken heart
cracked and bleeding
Guard it with my life and soul

From This Sweet and Bitter Pain, Springs Poetic Life

From This Sweet and Bitter Pain, Springs Poetic Life,
Forever Spiraling In Erotic and Eternal Chaos.
Hotly Contesting All of Life's Graphic Strife,
Lustfully Desiring the Very Best and Worst of Us.

From This Love Springs Immortal Pain,
Wanting For Death's Bold and Merciful Grasp.
Ravenous and Hungry For This Love and Lust In Vain,
Like The Deadly Spider to The Lorned Wasp.
 
From This Sweet and Bitter Pain, Springs Poetic Life,
Breathing Into My Dead Soul A Burst of Brief and Shallow Breath. 
Carrys Me Forward Through The Sharpness of This Mortal Knife,
Praying For A Lover's Most Merciful and Delicious Death.

To the Sunflower I Once Loved

Another Response to a poem by a classmate.

With wings so robust, a masculine butterfly I am
And you a beautiful garden sunflower,
I perched down your tender leaf and promised you no harm,
With charm and looks; physique and power.

I stayed and made memories with you for quite some time,
Enjoyed the sweet breeze as we danced and leaped.
And as our clandestine tunes found the rhyme,
My untold stories you wished to have a peep.

Then as you poke this wings of mine;
Nightly-colored and slowly blossoming,
With my secrets you can't stand listening
I revealed my true being.

In the far end of the wide flora, I saw another sunflower;
With petals shiny as gold; alluring me away from you.
Her color and sweet honey made me surrender my power
To leave you with your petals wet with dew.

I know I made you blue,
Set you aside and forgot about memories shared.
The wind is strong yet the breeze is sweet; so true,
For if time would allow, I would return to the one I once cared.

Picking Up the Pieces

I feel betrayed, even with the love we made
it never really mattered to you
How could you leave, and burden me
with all this pain I now bare
Didn't it matter, that I loved you with all of my heart and soul?
That I cried with you, took strides with you, would have died for you?
I guess that didn't count for anything of importance.
Now I'm left with nothing but regret.
Not because I loved you, but because I gave you my heart
The part that I can't ever get back
They say that parting is such sweet sorrow, that tomorrow hope begins anew
I can attest that there is nothing sweet about you leaving, and you saying we're 
through
I'll pick up the pieces, and carry on like I always do
But just remember/Baby, a part of me is always with you.

Haunting Memories

Cast upon thy shady eyes
A deathly glare of horror and demise,
Pale skin against the cold dark night
With lips as red and full as an evening light,
Where does she wander,
What does she ponder.
Eyes as cold as ice
Seeing nothing, but will suffice,
Fire circles her about,
Sadly, she knows she can’t get out,
Confused by swirling memories,
While the dark angels sing their harmonies.
Tears of blood roll down her face,
Memories not easy to erase,
Of love and hate combined,
Her life she left behind.

A gentle scent washes over her,
As quick as a minor blur,
The scent of something sweet and fine
Rising up with sweet divine,
Its him,
She thinks quite grim,
The one who aches
With his past mistakes,
Together they will walk,
Side by side in a lock,
Consumed by naught but their own pain,
And all the demons they have slain.

Sweet Whispering Lies

in my heart, you reside
deep in memory, you abide
and the vision of you lingers in my mind

unto my eyes, your form appears
echoes of your voice in my ear
telling me your sweet whispering lies

then my heart starts to pine
for kisses sweet as melon on the vine

Premium Member A Trip To the Past

In my dreams I'd like to journey back
To that little town of our youth,
To see if my sweet memories
Are founded on the truth.

If it's true skies were ever blue
And honeyed days forever bright.
The moon was never less than full
While stars lit up the night.

I've forgottten all the empty times
Except enchanted days with you,
When you first said you loved me and
I knew I loved you too.

I will know it when I find it,
That magic time from long ago.
Has our old town saved it for me,
That glow we used to know?

I'll be walking down the same streets
Where you and I strolled hand in hand.
Will I find us there together
In our own fairyland?

I hope you'll be waiting for me
In the confectionary store,
To share chocolate ice-cream sodas
As in the days of yore.

My big, locked box of memories
Is packed and going along.
I will know it's time to open
When I hear our own love song.

The sad years since God took you
Will from memory fade away
When I'm back to when our love was new
And know I'm meant to stay.

This is the journey I would take
If I could find my way
And a magic ride to get there
To that long ago sweet day.

Goodbye Summer

Goodbye sweet summer. 
Goodbye to the laughter and the pain. 
Goodbye to all the memories.
Goodbye to all the old and the new.
Goodbye to me and you.

It's time to get back to reality.
To this nightmare we all live.
Back to the life that doesnt exist.

So hears to the late nights, 
the long car rides.
The people we've met, 
and the things that we've said.

Here we go, 
Back to stupid high school.
Back to the drama. 
Back to the petty little fights.

Goodbye sweet summer.

Now you're gone, 
And I guess it's time to move on.

I Long For Your Sweet Tyranny

I Want For Your Sweet Tyranny

I Want  For Your Sweet Tyranny,
Close to Me Forever Cleaved.
Wanting You to Want the Deepest, Darkest and Lightest Parts of Me,
This Immortal Warden Allows No Merciful, Humane Reprieve.

Shallow Graves Do Poorly Cover,
The Sins Of Our Bodies Desire.
My Soul Does Vibrantly Hover,
As My Heart Longs to Expire.

I Want For Your Sweet Tyranny,
To Dominate My Very Being.
Praying, Praying, No Sun To See,
As I Cast Away My Mortal Being.
