Best You Lost Me Poems
The stunning scarlet leaf flows with gentle fervor.
Freedom requires a depth of beauty for nature's relinquished desires.
There seems to be a dynamic image brought forth from the soft
breeze that whispers dainty goodbyes. For our love is gone and so
is the memory of the barren branches from our favorite sapling.
I knew not of love before you, only of the heartache that Autumn
bestows.
I needed you like a breath of fresh air;
you lost me in the wind.

#68. MOON WINK
I took a trip for fun,
between the Earth and Sun,
slid quietly between,
the star sun's scarlet sheen,
from its radiant show,
and in it's earthly glow.
I cast misty shadows,
on planet's green meadows,
and people took up hands,
like stretchy rubber bands,
to greet me with great joy,
like a new kite or toy.
Metallic ships went by,
with sunbursts on the fly,
between planet and star,
I'm incredibly far,
I’m always just right here,
with the sun over there.
Your sable shades cloaked earthly eyes,
I heard the awe of your surprise,
I felt a popularity,
of power all had come to see,
I'd be like the great Houdini,
hide the sun and make it teeny.
I blocked the amber sun from view,
and cast dark shadows over you,
a coyote barked a gentle cough,
and Venus slid her blanket off,
the crickets sang, but not for long,
the Sun insisted, I was wrong.
Then out it came with dazzled light,
a Sun cracked smile of spewing fright,
a cheshire grin of searing heat,
red with anger and blind conceit,
he hid from me all Earth's creatures,
with fuzzy dim, blue-green features.
Then, I saw you'd all gone,
with the Sun turned back on,
you loud creatures all clapped,
with my next route well mapped,
for the light had returned,
and my dark magic spurned,
as the lesser soft light,
when you seek me at night.
Then you said you were done,
with your star studded fun,
with cameras and scopes,
and space colored hopes,
a quick jump to that car,
you lost me and the star.
On a soft summer night,
with gold glints of starlight,
look me full in the face,
as I beam from my place,
then, wave long as you think,
what I hid in a wink.

Return my love
I know that you don't need it
You saw the best colours of myself
You lost me boy
Sometimes it happens
We're better off
On our own
Return my love
I gave you this last year
You said " wow, girl, I'll keep it
In my heart"
You put my love
In your old holey pocket
You didn't need it
That's alright
Return my love
I knew you dreamed to lose it
It's time for you
To give it back to me
Return my love
You knew how to abuse it
You don't deserve it, I agree
I'm tired to wait
For the grass to grow
I want to stop
But I want to know
If it's possible to estimate the cost of my soul?
One-day, I hope, you will understand
How much it hurts to be unwanted
Return my heart
Return me those sad peaces
Please
P.S. Hey dear,
If you have extra 2 min - please leave a comment. I want to know your point of view.
Lots of love
Thanks
If the results of my actions accurately measure my competence.
Why shouldnt pride solidify my accomplishments?
Haunted with the feeling of being mislead.
But realistically, how could the situation be misread?
I gave freely of myself, yet it still cost me.
Yet, you were the biggest loser, being you lost me.
Trying to recover time, forced to retreat in space.
Evidence of long cried tears streaking my face.
Rage barely contained inside a cracced vessel.
Explode to episodes, lest the heartache settles.
Offered a new life, in exchange for tears.
And still was bothered in spite of impatient years.
Inevitable to lose, just dont lose the lesson.
Afford to miss opportunities, but dont miss the blessing.
You can't enjoy a nice day dwelling on fears of rain.
So, i'll maintain my smile, even through tears of pain.
on her last days of cruelty my mother asked me to get a gun stash in a closet
to help the way out of suffering and I a coward not wanting to finish the rest of my life in jail talked to the doctor to provide her with morphine.
he told me can not do that it may accelerate her departure.
but you told me she was terminal a matter of hours or days and why the agony.
make it peaceful religious bastard as she never pretended to wear your cross.
an atheist she was a good person always there to give an hand and you wash yours.
you lost me there as baptized on the insist of a religious father who had no hesitation
to abandon his brood with no loaf of bread and for sure no fish multiplying except with his new wife. may be I sing a tune to the wrong crowd but can you blame me as I was never put on earth to hurt any one but sure got my share of blows
Time changes...
Both people, and things
Both substance, and means
Until nothing... is as it seems.
And... You... Lost... Me...
When promises were unkept
When dreams were unmet
And... I have no tears for the us,
that I thought we would be
So... I guess they'll remain unwept.
And, you lost me
When you weren't my peace
But, my stress.
Not my solace,
But my mess.
When I thought you were a vault
for my private thoughts,
I discovered that you were the press.
And it hurt, I confess,
But still I prayed that you be blessed.
And... You... Lost... Me...
When your actions
didn't match your words
When your mentality
Was as flighty as a bird's
When you showed me that
I'd never have 100%
of your dedication
....Just a third.
That doesn't work,
in spite of what you've heard.
...And You Lost Me
...And You Lost Me
...And You Lost Me
Palms full of pamplemouse
bitter refrain
Catching a cold in the
still pouring rain
Vitamin C on the tip
of my tongue
but I'm not as healthy
as when I was young
You lost me there somewhere
back on my old street
where we would tell stories
and nightly would meet
Please search out to find me
I'm suffering in pain
You'll find me still standing
in still pouring rain.
Hidden Tears...
I gave you my life
Set aside my pride
Gave you all I had
Crying tears inside
Knowing the wrong doing
Never knew,(were)
Never knew, (how)
All I could say,
Is why
I respected you
I admired you
I loved you
Why all the lies
Why did you break the glass
Spill water all over
Start bomb fires
Causing my tears
I was number one
As you say
You lost me
Tor me apart
Took my blood
Needle and thread melted
Can't put me in one
For tigers and bears
I have no fear
I cooked you a meal
Told you to stay still
Relax and enjoy your day
Even let you go your way
I showed my life
Wanting a kiss
Wanting a touch
Wanting love
I wanted it from you
You took it, somewhere else
Kissing her
Touching her
Made love to her
Then gave me her touch
Played your games
In so many years
Yet I forgave
Not once
Twice
I let you stay
I respected you
Loved you
Only you
My body yours
My mind yours
My love yours
You took your advantage and threw
it away
Causing doctor and nurses to heal
my bruises
For your lies and mistakes
Now listen to this
Stay far, far away
I don't want you to stay
Don't tell me sorry
Leave songs on my phone
Send flowers to my home
Understand your pride
But, don't come my way
I'm not here to stay
You wasted enough of my time
Good-bye
D.L.V
Loneliness is a fear that sometimes cease life
Cutting through my heart carving its way like a knife
Holding me at a place where I feel for someone I need
To make me feel appreciated, loved and wanted indeed
You asked what is in my heart I once held you second to none
But now here is the truth of my now Dear John
Dear John you made feel like you will always be there
You told me you there was no one else who can care
You claimed to love me and promised me your all
But you busy pleasuring life every-time I call
How could you have held me in your heart when you had none
I gave you my all, blindly believed you now its all gone
You took everything from me you left me with nothing
You said I was yours and so I kept giving
All I have lost and you are no where to be found
Remember you stepped on me when I was on the ground
After that You said love was just a word only fools believed in
You laughed at me when you saw me crippled and bleeding
You said I will never be loved you told me to just hate
I had nothing else but those words so to me they were great
John I have a confession that will change things forever
There was more than you to life but did I see it? Never
I only knew this after you left there was a stranger
He gave me all you took and in my life he became the arranger
John you have nothing here any more
So I give you up and close that door
You will never come back because there is no cause
He told me the truth and loved even my flaws
Something you could have never done
John you lost me now be gone
When I met Him and he was my heart's desire
John for the first time in my life I saw you were a liar
When I first heard this my heart stopped
I almost dropped
I didn't believe it
but at the same time
I had this feeling
but I've been healing since then
Some days you treated me like a queen
even if we were only teens.
But some days you would say words that hurt
and you would treat me like dirt
and throw me on the curb
but it didn't seem to disturb you
You loved me
or so I thought
even if we fought
but I was taught
to give second chances,
I gave too many of those
because I swore you would change
but you took a vange
home instead
You knew it was wrong
but I remained strong
because I knew you messed up
I hope you know you that.
Bringing that girl to bed
would be the end...
of us...
I heard the news from other then you
I felt like breaking into two
But I will move on,
I have came upon a new beginning,
that's how I know I'm winning.
And we both know who is losing..
you...
You are losing because you lost me
~September, 24~
At the end of the day I cried for help and everyone laughed away,
as I cried more and more my image began to change,
rather than be someone who cares they said I was always the same,
he always tries to be the centre of attention, always, they claim,
and when I was forced out of the job still thought I was okay.
should try paying attention to mates, not mocking what they say.
attention seeking are you serious, your need,
I was attention needing,
if the soul of a being could bleed,
I wouldn’t be breathing.
Do you understand what you’re reading?
Before it’s too late and this world I’m leaving!
When you label me an “attention seeker”,
I WONT cry for the help, just stress,
suffering alone living life in hell,
forced by selfish clowns to feel helpless.
You killed me when I needed,
you’re selfish,
I HATE YOU.
I didn't lose you, you lost me.
*Thanks for the Hell given when I cried help
ONLY ATTENTION SEEKERS LABEL YOU AN ATTENTION SEEKER WITHOUT PAYING ANY ATTENTION, THEY DON'T PAY ANY ATTENTION BECAUSE ATTENTION IS SOMETHING THEY ONLY SEEK!! THEY WANT YOU OFF THEIR TERRITORY, YOU'RE STEALING THEIR ATTENTION.
I met you where no flowers bloom
And you got drunk on my perfume.
I met you when my walls were high,
Where days and nights met eye to eye.
I smiled at you and you went weak,
A faint blush colored your cheek.
I smiled at you and you smiled back
And hit me like a heart attack.
I kissed you under lilac trees,
My hair was ruffled by a breeze.
I kissed you hard, I kissed you long,
And so I knew where I belong.
I loved you until my heart bled,
With each and every word you said.
I loved you like a thunderstorm
Made of flames and ash alone.
I lost you in a summer morning.
You went so fast, without a warning.
I lost you when the skies turned gray.
You lost me when you walked away.
You promised to stay with me,
You promised to help me see,
I thought you were the lucky one,
But look what you have done,
You ripped my heart apart,
Looking at someone else,
You never seemed to pay attention to me,
Especially when she was around,
I tried to get your attention,
But you ignored me,
No matter how hard I tried,
I couldn't get you to see,
That life doesn't last forever,
Going home late one night,
Not caring if you were there,
Going into the bathroom,
Reaching for the medicine,
Hands shaking violently,
I'm Crying silently,
I put the bottle to my lips,
Tilted it up,
I felt myself slip away,
The ambulance was coming,
You were hoping it wasn't to late,
Facing the light,
I walked towards it,
To late... You lost me,
You were selfish and never thought,
Of how much happiness you brought,
To me you were my world,
Even if you ignored me,
I still felt happy to have you next to me,
Just remember I am still with you,
Not in physical form,
But deep in your heart.
Mystery!!!
I have been dreaming all my life
Within a flash, i am awake
As it all becomes reality
I have to speak
I have to be heard
Am tired of being voiceless
As i can hear it whispering,its my time
The chance to make an impact
And tell the story as horrible as it seems
I guess it mite not be a history
But may become faith,hope and justice for others
I have been beaten a thousand times
I have been hurt a million times,
I have been cheated and condemned by many due to my negligence
And now i want to be free from all shackles,from all chains
From all boundaries ,from all deceits
Hear my cry out loud because am screaming from within
I have become a mad woman even as composed as i seem
The journey so far has been all about pain and agony of a mother
An innocence of brutality and revenge is my take
because bitterness is all inside
Stop strangling me,stop humiliating me
like the diary of a mad black woman
I know my worth even when i lost it again and again
Respect is all i crave for from this day
And justice is what i deserve and pray at the moment
Mystery indeed ,you lost me forever!!!

Smart and Wise
He says she’s smart
She says he’s wise
Are they one of a part?
Or just talking in soliloquy
Em smart I am not
Bad choice of word
I am from the common lot
Just a little wayward
Em wise you can’t be
That makes two of us
I lost you and you lost me
Em uncanny impasse
“Smart” overly misused?
Or just misunderstood
“Wise” indiscriminately abused?
Or just a stupid gobbledygook
Two simple words
Pretentiously complex
But they are not that *****
Don’t be fooled or perplex
Those two words easy to say
But it sure hurts to hear
People use them everyday
With no clue or any idea
Ah, there you go again
Don’t agree with what I say
I tell you I am not insane
Don’t you understand; it’s so plain
Smart and wise
Two greatest taboo
Like triad and vice
They must be abhor
Smart and wise
Not words of truth
Both words encapsulate lies
Beguile and must be loathed
Smart and wise
They cause me much pain
I hope everyone will realize
And stop using them ever again
