Best Love And Loss Poems

"I love you."
Three important words
To show how we feel.
Too oft spoken
And not meant
Or too little spoken
When it is meant.
To cherish one you love
Is a noble ambition
And oft under-appreciated.
To let someone know
The place they hold
Deep within your heart.
If we knew how long we had
To be with...

Love and loss are a heaven and a hell;
     a purgatory and limbo, a place
of sorting out: a place where lovers fell;
     and entered a reflective, lonely space,
a realm that's not a lover's citadel,

For my birthday ,
was a puppy ,
cute and friendly ,
it became eventually .

Fluffy and white ,
never used to bite ,
social and active ,
and never used to fight .

a tragedy happened ,
my spirits were dampened ,
and my heart was saddened .

I gave him...

He loves her. 
His love for her never ends. 
“Love is patient, love is kind.” 
The good book says. 
Time..
It is your best friend if you think about it. 
It is also your worst enemy; 
It shows no mercy nor welcomes your white flag.

Love and Loss
©January, 2014

They say it is better
To have loved and lost,
Than to have never loved
 And have emotions tossed.

To see a loved one
Go carelessly astray,
Is difficult to do more 
Than to diligently pray.

To hope that someday
Their return you’ll see,
Is a constant prayer
That you earnestly...

I can still remember the last time I saw you,
A glimpse I throw before you leave the door.
It was a rainy afternoon,
Wind blew so hard,I asked you not to leave.
But I have no strength to make you stay.
You follow your heart,
You left me in vain.
Everyday,...

                    Love and Loss

Ghosts of missed chances, haunt my restless mind,
Regrets and what-ifs, leave my heart confined.
Yet I raise my glass, to hope’s flickering flame,
Praying for...

Her primal feelings
unleashed a torrent
of pure intensity

We tasted her sorrow
as tongues of fire
Her grief stricken

love filled heart
unleashed the force
of her pure passion

Illuminating our minds
with the knowledge
of her love and loss...

Two small butterscotch eyes look up at me.
As I weep sobs of sorrow and pain
My tears fall from my face like rain.
I hear the gentle soothing purrs of my small yellow cat
As I fall to me knees from where I sat.
The thought of my loved...

Is it better to have loved and lost
Then to have never loved at all
The question still perplexes me
For I've taken the fall

A broken heart might mend in time
Or go on feeling blue
How are pieces gotten back 
That still remain with you

The voids are filled with...

In the shadows where silence reigns,
Death's icy touch, no soul refrains.
A whisper soft, a chilling breath,
Steals away, the sting of death.

In the depths of night, where fears abide,
Grim specter lurks, where shadows hide.
With hollow eyes and ghostly stare,
It claims its prize, with little care.

A mother...

Oh, the ballad of love and loss
A tale that's oft been told
Of hearts that break and love that's lost
Leaves a heavy weight on one's soul

Once, I loved a fair maiden
Her beauty like the morning sun
But she left me, without warning
And my heart was undone

I wander...

Once upon a time I saw you there
Across the room, I couldn’t help but stare
Something new was being born
A feeling, I didn’t know I soon would mourn

The perfect future flashed before my eyes
Not like the one to come, with tears and lonely cries
We did not...

The Lakota Sioux tell a story about the sun and moon
which is ultimately a story about love…and loss…
about two tribes that lived on either side of a river…
a river they were forbidden to cross.

But one day a young girl from the moon tribe on one...

When they fell in love he felt blessed to find a person he adored.
He couldn’t control his happiness…he’d never felt such love before.

He thought he loved her more than anyone could love her…
He thought he loved her like no-one ever had…
until the day she took...
