Best Love Sadness Poems


I Love You, I Love You, I Love You
I love you, I love you, I love you
 
I wanted new wars and adventure. You wanted soft hands in your hands, someone to hold you tightly in the coldness of the lonely night. You were my Scotland beauty attempting to slow down a man...

Premium Member Goodbye My Love
 Violins whisper on warm summer night
Nightingale twitters a song just for me
Lost and alone I have lost my knight
heartbreaking moment I failed to see.

Birds twitter like whispering violins
Melodious moment soothing my mind
Uplifted I spread invisible wings
Violins and birds create heavenly chime.

Sadness resides in heart...

Oland
In Oland, where the wind meets the sea,
A love story once began for you and me.
We walked along the shore hand in hand,
Promised to love each other, never to disband.

Old fate had a different plan heretofore,
As you were called to heaven's door.
My heart shattered into...

Premium Member Le Cretin Amoureux De Jacques Prevert
L’amoureux brindezingue dit non avec la tète
Le cerveau fort agité amèrement s’embête
Pendant qu’il dit oui avec le cœur enflammé
D’un amour incertain, embaumé et emmitouflé
Oh ! Quelle bête! Les femmes ont toujours raison
Même quand elles ont tort. La gravité défie la raison
Dit-on, d’un air funambulesque et...

Loneliness Won’t Ever Leave Us Alone

Loneliness strikes at the very heart of what compels us
as human beings as we seek love and hope in this life.

The magic majesty of life is, at once, all-encompassing, 
yet overwhelming, at times, in the world of humankind.

Loneliness may signal...

Gypsy of the Wild Wind
through this chilly moonlight
as shadowy trees slow dance
while the past slips into sight

you blew in on a winter's day
dark cyclone bringing change
singing me sweet gypsy tunes
words I would not rearrange

silhouettes in a cabin window
sharing this blazing fireplace
your frosty breezes dying out
warmed by love's sweet grace

but,
with...

I Called
I called but you did not answer me,
You spoke a language I did not understand.

I reached for you and we touched fingertips, 
Then swiftly you moved away.
I loved you well, you loved me too, 
But you could not hear my song.
Softly I sang it from...

Our Wondrous, Dying Years
I lay claim.
To the spaces between your
breaths that hang suspended like
dust in summer glare.

I lay claim.
To the corners ignored, in which 
your shadow glides beyond my
feeble reach.

I lay claim.
To the fading spike of your laugh
that leads me through our closed,
unbuilt days.

I lay claim.
To the scraps...

Premium Member Eulogy - I Ate My Mother
chewing 
misery
a dagger 
in the morsel
jabbed 
slash on the heart
an evil thrall
enslaved 
my conscience
my mother the morsel
she rebirthed 
as the chicken
i just ate

The Five Fifty Nine
The five fifty nine bus
went roaming by
on route number nine.

Were you on it
I wonder
are you headed

for Toms River terminal
with guilt on your mind
or does the man your meeting

mean more then tears?
The bus has surely reached
West Creek by now

picking up passengers 
on the way. Baleful
how like...

Tears of the Past
A hundred sun's
A thousand tears
10 000 of hope
100,000 loves have passed me by

A hundred times I've sang a song
Of sadness, sorrow and regret
For the loves of mine 
I've never kept

For a thousand miles 
And across the seas of time
I've long since traveled to the end...

Premium Member Sunrises and Butterflies
As they walked together, missing her, the daughter asked the dad
“How can the sunrise be so beautiful when I’m feeling so sad?”

How can I find beauty anywhere…in the trees, the birds…the butterflies
when everything is blurry…when tears fill up my eyes?”

“when my world has lost its...

A Sadness In My Soul
There's a sadness in my soul
A feeling I can't control
There's a hurt in my heart
And I don't know where to start 
The thoughts in my head 
Have become my daily dread
For now I know it's true 
I cannot be with you 

All the pain that...

Addictions
Addictions

I feel honoured to have known 
Your innermost soul.
And wish I’d had success
In freeing you of demons.

I watched you struggle, 
And gave you guidance.
In return was pushed away.

So I hypnotize you
With my big brown eyes, 
And take you on a journey 
Deep within my soul,
As...

She Went Away
The angel is gone
she went away
will she return
again some day?

Verse rang true
touched my heart
lady grace right
from the start.

Penned and painted
such loveliness
her impressions of
life I do miss.

She kept me glad
and full of glee
the love has gone
with her poetry.

But still I hear
her gentle sighs
they whisper through
the darkened...
