Best Song Heart Poems


You Put a Song In My Heart

You put a song in my heart
The day you were born
And when he took you away
My heart was torn.

I knew you were special
The moment you cried
With tiny features
Your destiny couldn’t hide.

With every heart beat
I prayed for more time
To hold your little body
And sing you life’s rhyme.

You were born an angel
A special gift from above
And I only had eight days
To give you all my love.

He polished your halo
And said it’s time to go
And with your hand in mine
I watched your wings grow.

You put a song in my heart
That never went away
And I still feel your love
Watching over me every day.

The Gift

I never had the chance to look into your eyes,
I guess you felt so much pain that you tried to hide,
All this love I was to give, it hurt my heart you lived,
For just a little while, The Gift, my only child,
Wish I could take back every thought that was against you,
Felt like it was my fault, I was stressin, I had issues,
The tissue, keep it comin, My tears they steady runnin,
This aint no normal something, through loss Im steady hummin.
mmmh, mmmh, mmmh,
mmmh, mmmh, mmmh,
I only see you when I look at photographs,
You came with much pain so we never had some laughs,
I was trying to get ready for you, so I could be a better woman,
But instead my heart grew heavy because, my gift, took his lil' lovin,
I know you are not alone, so many have gone on,
But mommas strong, and daddies gone...
To you this is my song....

Shine On

You sit there crying, feeling hopeless
consumed by tears that fall like rain
Deep inside you look for something
to help you find yourself again
Amidst the state of your confusion
just don't know what you should do
Listen close for the voice is calling
that lives deep inside of you

With a soul wide open
let yourself shine 
with a heart so free
Keep your eyes to the heavens
and know you can be 
all you can be
shine on 


When you release that glow you keep hidden
you'll dance with the moon, ride on the beam
Stand up with the power within you
take hold of your life and live out your dream
No more worries about tomorrow
and forgetting about yesterday
You take the here and now and call it your own
and shine your heart away

shine on

Premium Member Song Bird

If I were a song bird
I'd soar on feathered wing
to light upon your window sill
my song for you I'd sing.

Each note I'd fill with tenderness
as much as I employ
if you would let me sing for you
I'd fill your heart with joy.

If I were a song bird
to you I'd sing my story.
If it would fall on willing ears
my sad heart would know glory.

Each note infused with sweetness
I would sing with all my heart
the songs you have inspired
right from the very start.

Song of Love

my heart it cries, oh, sweet dear,
                                               how i long to have you near;
                                               to be held in your arms at night,
                                               to kiss your lips and hold you tight;
                                               to know that you will always be,
                                               the heart the soul the life of me;
                                               to watch you react the whole day long, 
                                               and know my heart will sing a song,
                                               a song of faith, a song of love, 
                                               from a poem that came from above;
                                               to have you always by my side,
                                               and know to you i have never lied;
                                               never ever will i be a troll,
                                               and loving you, my daily goal.

Premium Member A Used Heart Playing the Blues

This instrument called my heart
That used to play love songs just for you
Is now old,worn and tattered
Barely even able to carry a tune

Beautiful love songs it used to play
Have now been turned to blues
From a woman I used to love
That has torn my heart in two

Melodies that would always flow
From a heart that was always so true
Now broken it hurts to even play
From a heart that's been so abused

Through loneliness a heart gets worn
Without all the love it was so used to
Leaving beautiful memories that are now forlorn
Almost unable to even play the blues

A sad song will still play on
Through these words that I call the blues
From a heart that used to play love songs
With all my heart,that were just for you

Liar's Moon

It would have been a pretty moon, 
If I’d not been alone. 
It would have been shining bright, 
On a heart I called my own. 
   But here I sit beneath a sky, 
Of darkness I have made, 
And think of this game I’m in, 
But wish I hadn’t played.
 
   Oh liar’s moon, I’ve been deceived, 
By the brightness of your smile, 
You called my name, made me believe, 
You’d be here for awhile. 
   I’ve been a fool for your love, 
Gave up my heart and home, 
The sky is empty...You have gone, 
I’m left no place of my own.
 
   So, now I am a prisoner, 
Of lives I thought were dreams, 
The bars that surround me, 
Made of your piercing beams. 
   I realize I am still a fool, 
And though I feel so lost, 
I’d throw it all into the wind, 
And count you worth the cost. 
 
Chorus: 
Oh liar’s moon, you’ve won again, 
I guess the joke’s on me, 
You stole away my spirit, 
And called it “setting me free”, 
Oh liar’s moon, you’ve won again, 
I guess the joke’s on me.

Premium Member A Heart Loves Forever

Some hearts fall in love when they're young
Some only fall in love in songs
But mine fell in love with yours forever
It fell in love forever

Mmmm…

You said you don’t love me anymore 
I get it, but there’s something I know for sure
My heart doesn't believe my mind
It needs to be near you
It’s been a long time

After hearing your words, I lost more than a day
Asking for grace, I prayed it’d be ok
I sit here, just looking above
What we had is what I’m thinking of…

Some hearts fall in love when they're young
Some only fall in love in songs
But mine fell in love with yours forever
It fell in love forever

Mmmm…

Some hearts keep love longer
My feelings for you only get stronger
All these years we’ve been side by side 
And it’s only now that I can see the light

Even as our love fades
I don’t agree that it makes it ok
Cause a heart loves on and on
It’s a love unbounded and strong
I can’t get past how I love you baby
I need to move on but I’m going crazy

Some hearts fall in love when they're young
Some only fall in love in songs
But mine fell in love with yours forever
It fell in love forever, mmmm.

I’ve been wishing and praying, for some luck
But now I can see that you’ve had enough

When a mind tells a heart, love is over
It can’t see the truth cause a heart loves forever

I promise you babe, I’ll love you forever. Mmmm…

My heart fell for yours forever

My Song of Painful Plea

Suddenly,wild flames thud out
Of our little kerosene lamp
Mocking flames danced on me
With expertise. their hungry mouths
Ate my perfumed flesh in glee
My manful cries went heaven high
That aunt Priscilla came running wild 
That Wednesday night of 10 November
Began my song of painful plea

Goat burnt skin as soft plum peeled
Sneering scissors thrust stubborn gauze and 
Red rain rush quickly out, then
When on it iodine oil is released 
Tormenting pains my body feel it's when
I begin, my songs of painful plea

My mouth tore in anguished laughter
Myself been prisoner of frustrating pains
When my eyes beheld my white hands
And my skin embellished with ugly scars
My soul  could not but raise that song
My song of painful plea

My song of painful plea
Echoes loud across the sky
For my heart made fragments
Of peaceful past, and a 
Library of scars in each tiny half
My heart will take no more
For I've done no wrong
Let happiness be a distant dream
To them who adulterated our kerosene.
My song of painful plea.

My Heart Sings a Love Song

The last few days have been so hard to bear,
being apart you-no time to share.
Away from my love, who's so far away,
It's hard for you to hear whatheart has to say.
My heart sings a love song only your heartcan hear. 
It makes my love known, it's loudand clear. 
It sings a lullaby, a soft quiettune, 
whispers I love you, my darlin', I'll be kissing you soon.
From this day on I'll be forever at your side
No more lonely tears will you ever cry,
You'll always hear what my heart has to say
I promise you my love each and everyday.
My heart sings a love song in soft quiet tune
Come home to me Darlin and kiss me soon.

Sherry, the One That Got Away

Sherry, The One That Got Away
By Rick Rucker

Sherry was the one that got away,
I remember her to this very day,

She was quite a winsome lass,
I was far below her class,

Her brother was a friend of mine,
I first met his sister, with a smile of Sunshine!

I went to his house to swim in his pool,
There, I made myself the perfect fool!

I was drying off, and standing there,
When out walked Venus, with raven hair!

I was not merely tongue tied,
Had I not averted my eyes, I might have died!

Just then, my heart suddenly stopped,
But for paralysis, I would have dropped!

Understand that I was shy,
Too afraid to talk to her, I won’t lie!

Just to make matters worse,
A song came out, to add to my curse,

Frankie Valli sang a song,
To, my embarrassment, prolong,

The title was graced with her name,
It made feel even more lame,

A line of the song asked her on a date,
To never have the courage to do that was my fate!

I had a rich fantasy life, 
In it, she starred as my wife,

We were so much in love,
Birds serenaded us from above!

I imagined we had little need of clothes,
Writhing together, we would curl our toes,

Finally the balance of the Universe I had to restore,
I could not take it anymore!

I began to think like Machiavelli,
All because of Frankie Valli!

With her brother, I did pick a fight,
So that I could sleep at night,

So that I would see her never more,
In time, my heart became less sore.

In time, I learned to be more assertive,
Not merely giving girls glances, furtive,

I even fell in love and married,
But, sometimes at night, my thoughts tarried,

On the memory of that lovely girl,
Who, among the swine, she was a pearl.

Whenever I read about two people, married forever,
I kick myself for lack of guts I never,

Asked Sherry on a date,
Therefore could not become her mate,

I do not know what might have been,
Had I not been the most timid of young men.

I hope she has had a wonderful life,
I did, and a terrific wife,

But still I sometimes hear that song,
And instantly, I know that I did wrong!

Ode To the Birds

The fluttering of wings,
The chirping from above,
What music do they bring,
Those birds that I love?
With weeds in their mouth,
Tangled with hay,
They fly back south
For a temporary stay.
They bring beautiful songs,
The ones I adore.
Here it belongs,
My heart longs for more.

Fools' Day, 2013

Douobting Thomas, the tom-est of tomfoolery,
Tomcat screeching at another moon.
What other metaphors can I make
For this most foul of fools?

Foolishness is one of my  better attributes.
I'll take my heart over my head any day.
Intuition is, ex-officio, superior to intellect
And my heart is ahead of my head.

But catching up slowly my mental machinery
Sputters and spews and groans and moans
In fits and starts it wakes
Grudgingly grinding out impudent ideas.

And tries to rhyme with the times
And sync it's rhythm with the spheres
The orbs in their orbits proclaim their omnipotence
And my heart beats with their harmonies.

There Is a Song In My Heart

There is a song in my heart
and I want to sing it for you in the misty night
No one will ever knows what I have written for you
because it has been written with my heart only for you
Let us be alone when I sing my song for you
and let the melody of my song echo in the sky
I want our world to sleep deep when I sing for you
then only my song will get into your heart softly
My nights are not enough to love you
nor my songs cannot be sung without you
I sing with my heart to tell you how much I love you
I sing with my soul to tell you how much I miss you
My song will wipe your tears away
and immerse my body into your arms for thirsting love
These feelings of loving song comes when I am only with you
and let my love song, sing in your living heart forever
