Best Platonic Poems

Sometimes extraordinary earthquakes radically rearrange the landscape
Sometimes continents collide, violently vying for the same space
Sometimes the savanna becomes a mountain range dividing two valleys

Sometimes your two best friends are a girl and a guy
she likes him
you like her

Sometimes the savanna becomes a mountain range dividing...

True love never dies
Loyal souls never change
Don’t distort the beauty of fairytales
Don’t blame it on life
Don’t blame it on you
Don’t fake your heart
‘Cause I won't do
Thought you were my angel
So I gave you my wings
Now you're ready to fly?
I whined hey wait
But you're hailing goodbye
I...

The bonding of trust
to a friend without desires
someone to turn to
emotion free yet sincere,
two logical minds at peace

Smiling and laughing,
It’s about the best thing around.
Keeping each other company,
Cause there’s nothing better to do in this town.

Sitting here waiting,
Until you leave.

Coming up quick..
Let’s just run away from it.

A depressing face I make,
When the last day comes.
I don’t want to upset you..
But now who...

Platonic Relationships

Look at the 1st quarter moon of the 7th
Day of the 7th month in the naked sky.
Japan celebrating Tanabata festival
There! The two stars Vega and Altair
Vega neglecting her weaving and
Altair allowed the cows to stray.
Dereliction in the case infuriated their King
Vega and Altair separated...

It is self tormenting
and arguably a case of poetic voyeurism
I do not like muses
I like them closer than that
no definition, just being there
the style, the perfume
and art of a persona
sitting next to me, talking
while I, for a brief span of a second
close my eyes and...

And the more i keep this feeling inside
The days pass
And im afraid you’re changing
Changing to something I didn’t know before.
If that happens, what am I going to do with this feeling?
Throw it away, like it was nothing?

But if I don’t wait,
And tell you now
Will you...

Warmth and understanding,
With nothing to assume, 
Gentle like her yoga,
Dark eyes were shining too.
 
Disturbing my indifference,
She moved into the room
With understated presence,
And saturated mood.
 
She didn’t disregard me, but
Her walls were never down,
The wolves that she kept waiting
Always were around.
 
It’s better left platonic,
Precious,...

All our lives you and I have been our own best friends,
Giving ourselves to others, recreating tragic ends.

A decade pasts, they’ve come and gone, I’m done with all their lies,
Good fortune in my life, it seems, evades me in disguise. 

We reconnect. What do we...

She was my soulmate, and i her writer
Soft as honey, she was the glue that kept us together.
Despite how much we tried to escape our vice,
We continued gliding on that thin, blue ice.
But thankfully for us, we were soft as a feather,
And that sweet honey,...

There are times in the silence of the night that my mind wonders there
There, in that place that was long ago
Where intertwined youthful bodies lay in a mess of immaturity and overdosed in-love
Wasted in pleasure and toxic lust

The candles flickered as our breathing hastened, fervent...

I never knew growing together could bond us for life
For as long as I can remember you were my life
When everyone wanted to push me down you picked me up
No matter how long we go without words it's like time is non existent 
I cannot...

Platonic Spirituality
by Lori Maria Walton

Waves splash upon my mind
Desires flee away with molecular miles
Creating a peace of platonic vastness
For only One can satisfy 

That is you, above earthly matters,
The One worthy of an early morning kiss
The One whose love never ends
Who never tires of hearing...
