Best One Sided Love Poems
How do you give solace to a girl with a broken heart
when your heart has not yet mended from her falling in love with him?
How do you answer her questions for advice
when you know the best advice to give further damages your chance?
How do you lend a shoulder for her to cry on
when your entire body aches to embrace her lovingly?
How do you listen to her plans for making up
when you wish your friendship could be replaced by romance?
Silently, you suffer the torture of one-sided love.
Stoically, you pretend to be happy as her friend.
Selflessly, you let her go when you desperately want her to stay.
Stupidly, you swallow those three words you want to say.
You try convincing yourself you are happy by her happiness,
even though her happiness with another makes you depressingly sad.
You wear the mask of a brother-like relative
even though the jealously is driving you mad.
To leave her far behind would mean your freedom and your end.
Never to know her as a lover, you will suffer lonely as a friend.
she makes my heart quiver
she understands me more
at the mention of her name my body did shiver
but my feelings is developing into a deep sore
she wants me not,i'm not her type
she's far richer and cute
i use facebook,she uses skype
at the sight of her,i become mute
i told her how i felt
she laughed and discarded it as a joke
i hope that she would soon melt
even if i'm rich or broke
this piece i write from my heart
with the hope and humility of a dove
and i pray we would come together never to depart
and put an end to this one sided love
One Sided Love...
Her dazzling saccharine smile...
Her tremendously appealing hairstyle...
Her varicoloured melodious voice...
Her serene coruscating eyes...
Oh, this excruciating one-sided love
When will it be a felicitous two-sided love?
One-sided love is sore and two-sided love is treacly
Just you know, one-sided love is not ugly
Do you have any idea how thrilling it is here?
Pretending like the sky and sea is crystal clear
While the clouds and waves are always in rage
The heart that forever remains mystery like Stonehenge
Have you slept with this atypical feeling on your face?
Being the cushy grass beneath her gentle paces
Being her true-blue shadow when she's striding lonely
Being her hyaline-like tears when she's crying sadly
Have you ever thought of the benefits?
This innocent feeling will never cease to exist
Gratify each other's desire, the end of two-sided love
Awaiting her one cherished smile, the fun of one-sided love
Wondering how to survive this thunder strikes?
There is no rose in this world without incisive spikes
For you, maybe its like a pathetic worthless war
For us, its a struggle severer than star wars
Whats a love without a forfeit?
One-sided Love is a love without deceit
You don't need to prove it with a receipt
You can always be in conceit!
. What a fool I am
Clinging to a broken dream
That can never be the same
Coming all this way
Thinking I could change your mind
Oh! so true that love is blind
Sitting here alone
Starring at an empty chair
That throws the truth in my face
It hurts! To love you
So I’ll board the morning train
And forget you once again.

1st Place
There are two sides to a story,
A truth and a lie;
I will perish no religion,
What shall come ahead,
I will fight hard to survive;
I would make a secret potion,
That I have brewed in my mind;
It is a wild poison,
That I shall drink every night;
I know it isn't random,
For some spark to ignite;
The power of one sided love,
Shall jubilate the night sky.
I will pray at the church,
I would want him to be mine;
The feeling of contentment,
To look at him;
Standing on the street,
Flawlessly fine;
A blessing from the Heaven,
The brightest star in the sky;
I could be in denial,
I know it's surreal,
To want him by my side;
I could be selfless,
For the love that shall invoke,
Some sense into my mind;
Giving life to this body,
Through emotions that are divine;
I could beg for his mercy,
I am done with the crying;
A liberation from this Hell;
A rescue from this plight;
But the saga of one sided love,
Has defeated the repentance of time;
I wouldn't mind shedding a few tears,
The hail and the rain,
Shall pour altogether,
The thunder would rise;
But he would be the calmness,
Pertaining in the wild;
It might be dangerous,
To veil the thunder,
I would not be a coward,
Hiding in disguise.
It is satisfactory,
To watch him breathe the air;
I would want to be the reason he smiles,
How could someone be so beautiful;
Enchanted and alive?
A glimpse of the Universe,
In those captivating eyes;
I would need an antidote,
To escape it for a while;
The magic of one sided love,
I wouldn't dare to try.
I could keep creating,
Prose to describe;
How we fit together,
Our spirits intertwined;
The heartache shall be my renaissance,
The lust and desire;
Every last ounce of hope is a sin,
A toxin in my vein;
That would cripple my heart into pieces,
To gently remind;
The saga of one sided love,
Has always been unkind.
Such beauty that I see in you,
white feathers gleam in misty dew.
Above the water’s sparkling edge,
I see you stand amongst the sedge.
You think that I don’t see you there
and sway like reeds in open air.
Your heart I wish for us to share,
I know inside you really care.
Please let this be a loving start
and never more to be apart,
the feelings that we both could share,
much more than just a love affair.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I see you swim beneath the wave,
my life I know that you will save.
Now quick I reach for you and then
it’s down my throat it’s you I’ll send.

Love that I had & have,
Doesn't seem to fade soon.
The violin that plays in my heart,
This string never does it untune.
Your one glance at me,
In every way, lights up my world.
Your glance if lasts more than two seconds,
Ah! Spellbound I be!
I sway, I dance, my eyes glitter
& I pass my days dreaming,
To be in your arms.
In la-la land, myself I tend to see.
Questioning my one sided love,
Is no more pleasurable.
Now I rather notice and live,
The power of this emotion,
Which sure is immeasurable.
This love is sure loyal,
None can betray it,
Not even thee.
This love is mine,
None can take it,
Or outshine.
I say it again & again that,
I love thee & that I do!
It doesn't die,
Even if you show me days so blue.
With each passing year,
This love adds a brand new hue,
To one day form a rainbow,
For you to cause a remembrance,
Of pure love & a girl,
Who was madly in love,
Despite knowing the odds
& that it can never make do!
A lazy afternoon
And an empty classroom.
As I’m about to fall asleep,
At the same time
I fell for you.
“Because” you look
Beautiful in my eyes, and
Because of then, I’ve been getting
Butterflies at the glimpse of you doing what you
Love, making me fall for you even harder.
Catching a glimpse from time to time,
‘Cause it’s the same way you
Caught my heart. You
Can hear it racing, If only I could make
You feel the same way.
So that the roses in my heart could bloom so
Much so you could notice it.
I really have this urge to tell you something
it probably isn't anything too deep
and though I sit and reminisce about our love life
this question in my brain won't let me sleep
Do you think you love me or don't you?
Have you even thought about our situation?
You excuse my doubts with undue concern
'cause they only tend to cause you complications.
I gotta bring myself to one realization
that you may not even like me anymore
and when I finally tell you what I am about to
any love you had for me will wander far
I still adore you love, though I can't find it
but somehow I still know that it's right here.
So please don't show your irritation for me
when I beg for your attention through my tears
I guess I could go on writing forever
but you have your life to live
and I have mine
I just wanted to stop and tell you
'thank you'
for the love I thought was both of ours through time
He vowed to love her forevermore—
But already forgot her trivial name.

Epigram
Bewitching red rose
and its sharp thorny stems
Laments failed lover
I wish I could tame my wild feelings
Cut it's fangs and trim it's wings
I wish I could bind it to a stake
Even for a day,
For it teaches my heart to wonder
Draging it along
Even as it wonders off
Misled by the fragrance of you
and still comes home
Drenched in a pool of pity
For you never cared
Even when it did all a man can ever do
To win a lady.
Her kiss reached his lips?
Single tick turned double blue.
One sided love wilts

Loving someone
when they don't love you back
is a uniquely painful thing
Pouring your heart out
to an empty void
leaves a most terrible sting
And a one sided love affair
when I love you and you don't care
it brings me down into despair
and I'm sure you have better things to do
than to bother with my love for you
There's no one there
when I look in the mirror
it's as if I can see through your eyes
'Cause when you look at me
you're not seeing me either
but I guess that it's really no surprise
and I know one day I'll be wise
but until then I'll tell myself lies
This old heart is out of whack
like an echo that won't come back
a locomotive that slipped off the track
and I'm quite sure you've better things to do
than to tell me that you love me too
And I guess that'll just have to do
