Best Only If Poems


Premium Member Only If the World Was Filled With a Little More Love

Today I changed the world,
 by reaching out to someone
 with unpleasant vibes.
Maybe it was the sigh in their voice,
 or the emptiness within their eyes.

For that moment I was a soul who cared,
 made them feel happy to be alive.
Helped them see they weren't alone,
 and with a caring smile,
I helped them to survive.

This world is not all about you,
 and it's definitely
 not all about me.
With a little love there's so much we can do,
 give it a try,
 then maybe you will see.

Only if this world was filled,
 with a little more love...

With some true compassion in our hearts,
 we could open up the skies above.

Only if this world is filled,
 with a little more love...

Then the only tears we'd see cried,
 would be tears of joy,
  from other peoples eyes.
 
Only if this world was filled,
 with a little more love...

With some compassion for future lives,
 we could make this world a better place,
  and not so hard just to survive.

Only if this world is filled,
 with a little more love...

We can open our hearts to other people cries, 
 return that sparkle of joy that's been missing
 from some one else's eyes.

Only if this world was filled,
 with a little more love...

A true love we couldn't deny,
 paid in full by a love,
 that money can't buy.

Only if this world is filled,
 with a little more love...

beautiful lady
holding you
ever so gently
in the softness
of beauty

as the violin plays
touching souls
under a full moon
i dance
with you

silver shadows
dancing a waltz
touching 
black velvet

in silken 
soft feelings
in loves melody
singing out
in your earthly
beauty

my spirit rises
applauds
in beating wings
the heart 
pounds
on the drums

reaching high
hands out
in a flash 
of light

i hand you 
the moon
flashing stars
wink 
delight
in loves 
tune

as the sun 
kisses the moon
a dancing groom
eclipse
my night

Premium Member Kiss her only if your gaze can open the gates to a fairytale realm

Kiss her only if your gaze can open the gates to a fairytale realm,
where your lips unravel mysteries hidden beneath the cosmic dust of time,
where her body is not just a sanctuary but a universe waiting to be explored,
where her tongue is an arena of silent conflicts, woven with the names of ghosts.
She has burned through her own essence, becoming human as much as the sky allows,
she has stitched her heart with threads of fury, closed wounds forgotten by other lovers,
spoken in undeciphered dialects, carving truth onto ancient walls,
if you don't see the poetry in her ruins, your presence is just a shadow in the wind.
Kiss her only if you have the courage to bear the weight of her name as a gift,
to bleed in the colors of her soul like an artist creating their art,
to have the devotion to meet her where she stands—unwavering, regal,
anything else is a lie, and she has swallowed enough illusions already.
She is both prayer and plague, a scripture demanding to be understood,
kiss her only if you have the heart to stay, to know all her faces,
to unravel her mysteries and embrace her shadows that dance silently,
for anything else is an empty promise, and she has lived through enough lies.

If Only If I Have a Time Machine

if only i can turn back time,
i could save all my dimes,
pass my tests,
find all my lost items .
see everything thats left,
right behind.

if only i had not been so foolish,
my popularity would take a huge leap,
if i can turn back time,
i would turn it to all the times 
that i have been happy,
and not those which are so sappy.

if only if i had a time machine.

Only If

With tears eroding smiles off my face
To u I humbly write this letter in sadness
Only if you can read

On a fateful heart breaking day 
Face covered in blood you left us in dismay
Only if you had known

Blood sugar tied you in a death yoke
Helpless and hopelessly captured in orphanage hook
We couldn’t only if you were with us

But why couldn’t you wait for a grand daughter 
Sad not to see your first seed as a great doctor 
Only if you knew so early basket you couldn’t kick

In a darkest home down the grave you now dwell
Badly missed why for once you don’t say hello
Only if you are capable

We lost, to the dead dad you now belong 
Always remembered despite time being so long
 A decade gone, continue resting in peace

If and Only If

IF AND ONLY IF

If i were a love poet, i would write
you the sweetest words ever
known to mankind. In that piece, i
would describe how you make me
feel and how real it is even though
you are hundreds of kilometres
away. I would describe your beauty,
patience, humility and your loving
heart. I would sing to you the
sweetest song with the most
touching words. i would kiss your
heart and forever cherish that
moment. I would uplift you and
always write about you. You are
simply amazing, a girl, different
from the rest. I am messed but
you are the best and because of
that, i feel blessed.

If and only if i were a love poet, i
would put pen to paper and revive
all shattered dreams. I would ignite
that romantic fire beyond physical
desire and take us higher. If only, i
were a love poet.

If I could become a love poet, I
would touch your heart with the
purest of emotion, so tender and
loving. i would fulfill that empty
void with nothing but love and
happiness. If and only if. i would
spend eternity waiting for you and I
to become us, the relationship that
I've always longed for. you are all
I've ever wanted and needed.

Unfortunately, I am not a love poet!
I am Fred! A human far from
perfection and am afraid. I am
defined by imperfections and
mixed feelings. I am like a Lilly in
the canyon, picking on every
possible threshold. But even if i am
like a dry valley that slowly dries in
the desert, i feel refreshed by your
love. i sour above like a dove in the
white skies. you take away all my
tears and my lonely cries. therefor
between us, there shall be no lies
because each time i look into your
eyes, i see the future of our lives.
deep down to where it lies.

to be frank, I love you so much and
i hope you feel it. Till i see you, till i
confront you, till i gather up my
courage to say it all to your face,
all i can do is hold on and hope.

I truly love you.

Only If

Knowledge is valuable,
Only if we use it wisely.

Intelligence is a good quality,
Only if we have the confidence to prove it. 

Beauty is significant,
Only if our soul is clean.

Strength is functional,
Only if we utilize to help the weak.

Friendship is true,
Only if we have trust in it.

Love is pure,
Only if we have no expectations associated with it.

Happiness is a treasure,
Only if we have found without hurting others.

Wealth is helpful,
Only if we know to spend it in the right way.

Success is meaningful,
Only if we have achieved without pulling down others.

Life is worth living,
Only if we have the courage to face the world.

Only If She Knew

She is so beautiful
that my heart can love no other,
but only her;
she sees me for a ghost
and my heart has no courage
to tell her my own true feelings.

She so lovely,
when she laughs
she brightens the world;
when she smiles,
she makes my heart laugh
and she makes me feel alive.

She is so kind,
she makes the birds fly high,
the rivers flow,
and the ravens sing songs,
as the merry deer prances away
all cheerful and in love.

She is my one and only,
my world, my love song,
my moon, my star, my sun,
my spring, fall and winter.
She is my rose, my sweet, beautiful rose,
my black haired angel beauty,
who I love so dearly;
she is my everything...
Only if she knew how much she means too me.

Only If I Were

If I were a bird
 every feather would be preened and light, 
  singing sweet tweeted songs to my delight,
I'd take to the trees silent and unheard
 flit and flutter to my heart in midday light,
  free as any bird
  floating caw-less
lightweight, airy and cautious, 
 eyeing the earth below as flawless;
I'd sail the sky, touch the clouds,
 a sparrow or bluejay, no something greater, more proud,
 not an eagle or a falcon or some bird of prey across the seas and bay
 but a gull, a seagull, white and gray,
 flying out to sea 
casting an eye on oceans beneath me;
 alas, it is but a dream
 sadly I screech the seagull screams
 and back to the parking lots for bread and french fries
 where i barely hear the ocean waves cry.

Only If

If I could only
Only if
Then I could
Flee this cliff
If I just had
Had I just
Then perhaps
I could trust
One more piece
Piece of puzzle
I'd break the chains
Of this muzzle
Once I get
Get this break
I'd make not one
More mistake
It's all I need
Need just this
Life would be
Full of bliss
But I was wrong
Wrong all along
Now I sing
The wanting song
If I could tie
Tie this knot
Then I'd have
Everything I've sought
If I could only
Only if
Then I could flee
Flee this cliff

Only If You Knew

 taking you out of my head, can be simple that i know
but taking you out of my heart, has been the hardest task of all
every time i see your face
i fall more into you again
just by seeing your smile
it makes my day worth while
only with a simple text
you make me the happiest girl in the universe
i know you don't belong to me
but this is what people mean
when the say the truth  hurts
its hurting me like knifes to my chest.
i like you more than i thought
my feelings for you show more and more
i need to take you out my heart
but how can i do that 
if every time you get me mad
it only takes a smile, a text, a hug
and it makes me forget what was wrong
i need to be stronger
let go of the things that belong to others
you don't need me in your life.
your friend i would like to be
but that is what i am and its hurting me. 
the definition of love
is indescribable...

If Only, If Only

Like an earthquake
With many trembles
The pain subsides
Gathers and assembles

It only currupts
I am losing sight
I wish she were here
So I could still fight

Soon I'll go blind
I'll no longer see
She's long gone
Yet right infront of me

If only she came sooner
Before I went blind
If only if only
My soul I could find

She wants to help
Yet it's not the same
She was gone too long
I went insane

For weeks I was lost
It felt like years
I cried my days away
Filled buckets with tears

I no longer can feel
I no longer can hurt
I no longer have energy
I am becoming inert

If only she came sooner
Before I went blind
If only if only
My soul I could find

For my soul is lost
Out at sea
It may be long gone
Or right by me

But it and I are not one
It has left me alone
I sit and wonder
If I was ever known

I swim with the tide
I picture a beach
I picture her heart
Which I could still reach

I see the water
No longer a storm
I see her open arms
Soft and warm

I fade from reality
I drift into dreams
Her comfort still there
And everything is as it seems

If only she came sooner
Before I went blind
If only if only
My soul I could find

We Can Be a Winner Only If We Accept Losing

We Can be a Winner only If we Accept Losing
 
When we are going to be a winner in our life?
There are plenty of ways to give that winning feeling for us.
We do not necessarily to be on the first place for being a winner of ourselves.
When we manage to overcome the hurdles in life with a performance improvement also can give us a winning feeling.
If we join a competition with many participants, it is an achievement to finish first and when we have all the talent then it is also possible to get into the best place.
But if we participate in several matches then it will be more difficult to win and getting the first place in every single match.
So we must be mentally prepared on our own in which even we are always able to perform the best but that does not guarantee us a first place.
Therefore we will be classified in a lower position by someone else who get a better result in this match.
So we need to accept several things in life which cause us losing, lets move on to have a better chance to win it next time.
That’s also the same in business, we always want to win and that is normal but “a small mistake can cause a lot of trouble”.
So when we have the misfortune that we are in the losing party at that time, we should accept it with positive thinking.
Do not let ourselves slump with the loss and start to think pessimistic because then the consequences is all our behavior turns into negative approach.
That will reduce our commitment, because when we think that we are only losing will give nerves and frustrations which also reduces our opportunities.
Always stay relaxed if we are losing because only the best will always win and how relaxed we are, the more likely we possess those qualities to be a winner.
The biggest losers also can be the best winner.
 
I wish you a healthy life.
Kindly Regards,

Only If You Cared

When all my dreams are about you, why don't you care a little about me 
If I wasn't the person u expected, why don't you care a little bit
I tried to hate, hurt you but I end up loving you more
The words you've said always lingers in my head 
The scars you've left is always there needing care but I know it can't be healed 
The more I love the more pain I hold
The unsaid words, the longing shoulders and the vengeance is still seeking but will it happen?
If I can't be loved why don't you love me a little bit
You always hate the 'me' when I am still trying to do better
Will u love me if I was the person u expected?
Will u love me if I acted ?
I am an joker to act to make you smile
Only if you cared a little bit...
