Dark Love Poems

Love is pain

Let her go
Let her go
Let her go

I'm ready to let her go
It's time to ride solo

She doesn’t love me
I'd rather let her leave

Out of the proverbial doorway
It's the only way to be okay

Maybe we'll still be friends
Or maybe this is where it ends

All I know is that I'm through
With constantly feeling blue

When I talk to

Premium MemberDarkside of Aquarius

When, as a child, the aquarian age did dawn.
Good vibrations were its joyful, loving spawn.
The world was ignited by a peaceful spark. 
But did this age also bring us something dark?
And are our lives ruled by stars up in the sky
or by the true convictions of you and I?
I wonder if we are not to

Shadow Love

Just follow, follow a lost life
Grey walk, dark, shadow life

Where? Where? Where is life?
There is no life. Remaining dark

A heart loved. Just for you
Touch it. Opens dark love

I love you
Dark life

Premium MemberA Different Love

Like deep questions in outer space,
Dwelling out there with troubling trails,
Her Depts are undetectable,
And questions abound.

Born in neither heaven nor hell,
She's more than a show and tell.
Reckless ruin better describes her,
An ever-consuming sinkhole.

If ever she enters your heart,
Forgive and bid her depart
Lest you be swallowed up
And filled with tombs of shame.

None should be tempted to

This is Where I Died in You

It was not the blade,
not the scream,
not the thousand prayers swallowed
before morning came.

It was the moment
your silence blinked
and I saw myself inside it.
Not you.
Only my echo
dressed in your name.

I knelt inside your chest,
curled beside the last warm place
you left for me,
before the fire went out.

You called it love.
I called it extinction.

Still, I touched your hand
like

Love Letter Torn From a Rib

I tore a letter from inside my ribs
not a heart, just the script of your name
written in red ruin and birth fluid.

You were never mine.
You were my plague.
And still I prayed at your shadow.

Every sentence you whispered
became a worm in my lung,
a hymn stuck in the throat of a dying god.

And yet, when the mirror

Chamber of Becoming

We laid our breath
in the cold dish of morning
not to warm it,
but to watch it vanish.
The way ghosts do.

You struck the match inside me
with a tremor,
like forgiveness
forgot to be kind.

I was not born for light.
I was spilled
like ink across your undone name,
every letter twitching
like a fish on the wrong side of water.

You came in with

Inner grave

Love is like a grave of Emotions, there is no way out.
For the ones that no one loves love becomes a tomb of eternal pain.
Where your life is wasting away.
I try not to love anymore, but it is impossible like a grave there is no way out.
Sooner or later we will feel the effect.
My heart

A Fallen Love

In the stillness of a fading room,
Where love once bloomed, now whispers loom,
A hand that once was soft with care,
Now trembles in the midnight air.

The walls have heard the quiet cries,
The heavy steps, the hollow sighs,
Where promises once brightly glowed,
Now fade like leaves in winds that blow.

A heart too broken, a mind too torn,
The threads

Shadows

‘When you are not fed love on a silver spoon, you learn to lick it off knives.’ - Lauren Eden

copper red
the taste
another from the darkness
in shadows I wait
desperate for love
one more face
I need to feel it
to feel alive in this place
no heat
skin against my skin
it's cold and unforgiving
I'll forgive myself

Storm

I stand where it’s most dangerous. 
Just a girl in distress. 
A storm enters the hall.
This will be the biggest storm this fall. 
I don’t like when the water flows. 
Especially when the power goes. 
I saw my best friend, he still has his eyes. 
His hair is covering his face, as he cries. 
Just

We are Paris

"We are Paris"


You were the shooting star filling my sky
I stumbled upon you, making sparks fly

You blew me a flaming passionate kiss
Each breath you took I sukked your bliss

Coursing my veins was the numbing sorrow
You promised I would live in every tomorrow

Deeply guarded walls falling down in rubble
Strangling the beast & silencing our struggle

Venus would

Criminal in the room

If became a criminal the room would you tie me down to the bed, and show me how to be the good little girl you wish me to be. I'll get on my knees begging daddy to forgive me. Show the criminal side of me daddy is the one in charge here. What you say

Love scars rima

These memories will never go away,
That girl has my soul and my heart she stole.
Burdens i carry, haunt me to this day,
It seems that even love, will take its toll. 
I tried and tried to make her stay
But now my heart has this whole
I fall apart at night, lost in moonlight,
waiting for the sun to

Stream of love

A stream of love flows from her tender touch,
The Queen of Charm, who means so very much.
Her figure calls me to a dream divine,
In her gaze, I lose myself, I’m thine.
Puella’s kiss, a sweet and endless spell,
In her embrace, I find my heaven’s well.
