Best Love Sick Poems

He loved his grandpa with all his heart
All the hugs in the world
Could not heal him
How we dreaded the time when
Memories would be all that’s left

Kill the Silent One

(Silent Killer)


He has invaded, unseen
Lurking and silent
Evil destroying one and all
From cell to cell
Crawling underneath
Leaching blood and soul
Smiles are murdered
Futures destroyed
Families ruined
The silent one is a killer
Who must be killed

The order has been given
Command centre now on full alert
Maps perused and studied
Strategies contemplated
The invasion...........
Will be at early dawn

Men prepare their battle gear
The...

Love Sick
 And the way she says "I want you babe"
 And I know that it's true
 And every time she says my name
 These feelings so brand new
 And when she holds my hand today
 She holds my hand She holds my hand

So I smoked that cigarette to the end
 Just waiting for the...

"Its corona time" they said
I really hope I don't wind up dead
Many people have such as Tom Hanks
He's been tested. It wasn't a prank

Stores are running out of Purell and toilet paper
COVID-19 is like a game and we are all desperate players

Wash your hands and say a prayer
Becasue coronavirus is everywhere...

For every soul that seeks itself
between the remnants of past days
or lives
For every wraith who doubts beyond 
deepest despair in distractions
that give
Just a small amount of respite despite
efforts too much for one alone
to bear
Here is my hand, here is my heart
For it is big enough to hold you too
Do not despair
While in the darkness only...

She left me feeling breathless.
All it took was just one kiss.
I never thought the girl I love
could make me feel like this....

The Lord made friends to cherish and hold,
And to be a big part of the stories you’ve told.

Someone who will lend an ear or maybe a hand,
And listen when you have problems and understand.

Friendships have no boundaries or distance,
They are always there to lend a hand, to be of some assistance.

A true friend has no...

they're rolling him away
in a wheelchair
down the hospital hall
out of my reach
cutting the cord
promising to bring him back

they're rolling him away
his future in their hands
leaving me in silence
alone with my fears
wallowing as i wait
with nothing but hope

i remember coming home
under the weight of fate’s hammer
one nail already in your coffin
the bell had rung loud and clear
announcing the last round

i brought you home
my precious love
what was left of you
i brought you home
where you belonged

not sure how anything would play out
time a blur nothing certain except
we knew it was the last scene of...

Feel me standing there
on the draw bridge
that stands stubburn and erect
over the rushing waters blown by the wind
back and forth.
I listened to the crows
posted on gargoils designed
of eightenth century Gothic architecture
singing their death songs,
when the sun is setting in the far.

The voices of women passing
startle me with a feeling of sorrow
I can't breathe, I am...

The third surgery didn’t work
He tells her there can be another one. 
He lies. Struggles to look in her eyes

She apologizes from a restless state
"I Won’t be here to see them graduate.
I won’t live to see Christmas will I?"
“You’ll have the best Christmas ever.”

Doesn’t take Algebra to realize
That February plus three to six months
Is a...

How can I tell you?
I can't stay with you.

Neither I can give up on you.
Fear of losing you is losing me.
It feels like slow death every night.

But we are just stuck in our spaces!
Unable to connect from two feet distance....

POEM
Title:  Broken

I was wrong,
So wrong that it hurts,
So wrong that it burns,
And the reason is difficult to discern,
We mathematically solved to get love in return
But lost is what we earned.

I'm Broken inside,
Is it something to abide?
Let put it aside,
Our misunderstanding,
Our conflicts,
Our arguments,

Your fear plus my fear,
Equivalent to my tears,
While I'm sad,
Feeling bad,
Can we knit...

My heart hurts my soul is depleted 
I used to walk around feeling so undefeated 
The pain is at a tipping point & I just can't beat it

My brain is killing me & my body follows suit 
Sometimes I wonder if I should just pick it up & shoot
Early morning headaches feel like a tumour...
