Best Too Little Poems


Too Little Too Late
 Half my soul shadows his reflection

leaving me with silent voices and vacant thoughts

But the other half , the other half lies hidden .Hidden and lost !

Lost in days of sending postcards,in months of sealing letters

lost in years of our laughter ,of  warm...

            Now he wants her back... 

      The same cad who called her 
     "Unattractive" and "overweight"

Too Little - Too Late
Not so much
a lie
with little
truth to tell

Not so much
goodbye
with greetings
gone to hell

Not so much
romance
with feelings
dead or pawned

Not so much
to dream
with sleep 
— bereft and gone

Too Little Too Late
They walk, separate destinations in the wrong direction.
 Aimlessly drifting throughout various vocations, too idol to master what they need to succeed.
A rat pack of losers in a game they can't win, they can't because they won't, they refuse to begin.
Putting up the with the...

Too Much Or Too Little,
too much or too little,
the storys abound ,
the rich n the poor,
 on the merry-go-round,
happiness-health- give me  more,
till i canter across the fatal shore,
poor as a church mouse this old hound,
forever for bloody sure:)

Too Little, Too Late
I know it's too little. 
I know I'm too late...
I guess I expected time to stop...
For time to just wait...

It's over...
You needed me and where was I...?
When you lay dying in bed.?
Too caught up in my head...

These flowers on your grave mean nothing...
The tears I...

Humans
only act when
damage done is severe.
For climate change, it's already
too late....

Too Little, Too Late
I know it's real late.
I just wanted to conversate.
My behaviors have been so fake.
The truth seemed to devastate!
Shattered your heart like an earthquake...
Apologies,  I know you hate.
My regrets I had to demonstrate.

Losing leaves such a sour taste.
These words just couldn't wait.
I wish you wouldn't...

The man to whom I have been wed,
For low these many years,
Has never shared his love with me,
Now wants to share his fears.

I Don't Want To.

My feelings never mattered much,
He told me, don't complain,
And now we're old he thinks that I,
Should gladly share his pain.

Why...

Too Little, Too Late
A white lily sunrise 
brings the malaise, 
humid dreams shimmer 
off the blackening tar 

Red dust girates an axis 
dark matter is overcome, 
lethargy drags the body
into a blazing bright sun 

Work, a joke on labouring men 
each day drains into the next,
without a dropping...

Thou Protesteth Too Little
Indefatigable am I,
 
From the wretched dilapidated tenements to the soiled banks of the Versailles,
 
Hear my cry,
 
Left to their own devices the gilded wage masters will not comply,
 
Doth not their protestations for my benevolence in pursuit of profits their intentions belie,
 
Consuming...

Too Little To Late
Todays society chooses to run on greed!
Few people actually want to see others succeed.
Some people would rather choose to hurt the people that love them,
as long as in the end they'll be above them!
For some people its easy to hit someone right in the head.
So...

Too Little To Notice, Too Much To Ignore
Romantic glances across the room, small kisses on my check.
The wonderful way you held me in your arms at night.
It was all so amazing, so remarkable that I found someone that would show that much attention to me.
And then as I grew more comfortable within...

mom, without malice, 
cast upon chastity spell,
overprotecting

Timid Tracy never had a date, 
Humbly yet she accepted her fate
Mom, so wise and adept,
Refuses to accept
Her dear daughter's virginity state

thoughtful advice from the wise often takes young in the right direction but at the wrong time

January 20,...

Wonder not for the state our world is in when we are doing too little its many ills to cure!
