Gone Poems - Poems about Gone

All gone, the stripes on mug, and coffee. Ground up, my morning thoughts. Handle the wake-up-beauty kiss; source of mystery. What’s in his cup? Mind’s empty. Fill it up. I don’t carry but one; a mindful wake-me-up. He’s dragged himself out of bed; drugged with sleepiness; purposed to begin his grind. He doesn’t dig coffee in the morning. Regular routine to pour himself...

"These four wall are closing in Look at the fix you put me in" Rainbow - Since You've Been Gone There is no blame assigned, you're let off scot-free I own all the heart-ache that belongs to me A sensitive soul has to be resigned You're let off scot-free, there is no blame assigned I'll work on myself, build resilience higher As if...

Despairing seafaring..can be Lore of days of yore Glories or gory Bold stories told Foreshore folklore Hemingway’s…Old Man and the Sea Smiles..feeling chipper Like a wee nipper Reeling in a ripper Serious delirious skipper No not a wee kipper More like stealing Flipper (ah remember Flipper) Sort of caught Trials snort beguiles Rather overwrought Wiles & guile..fraught Palaver..how they fought All went iffy in a jiffy This grouper.. a storm trooper All...

Gold on ancient atoll? Gone be prospector's hope! Gore, doth coat the brazen bull? Golem, get the rope? Best for those politest men? Better think again. Bone a-broken, dive in den? Flicker on the fen... Torn like life tormented? Break upon, O wave. How the gods lamented! O shroud hung on the grave! Yellow as a predator's eye? Dun the desert doubt. Riddles, rivers, thy reply? Time will sort it...

Today I felt the weight again - at least I'm feeling now. For months I floated, distant, watching myself from somewhere else. Now I write, I climb, I sweat, learning who I am beneath the numbness. I saw you after all this time, traveled far just to confirm what my heart already knew. You walked toward me, familiar but changed, and every word I'd planned dissolved...

This moment’s gone so let’s move on Stagnation is but death Why’d we before dark desires fawn When God renews our breath From birth till now we’ve seen Wherever we have been Lustrous remains soul’s sheen New day, new dawn This moment’s gone...

Some time just before the sunset, When the butterflies were gone, The moon was on its way, There was no eclipse, but it felt that way When there was darkness all around, A beam entered in their life, Turning the time around, With 11:11, no longer on the clock Beneath the sun's glaze, we often turn blind eye, While seeing the perspective through...

Sat alone again, sipping a few The old whiskey jar It's as empty as you Now you're gone I can see All that you did Just one more day To be your friend They say to live Each day as your last The reality is We're all tied to a mast Don't dream away These ideas that you have Because the moment is now Just remember...

I am still holding on, Holding on to what we were, Even though you’re gone....

On this gangrenous planet, where the sky bears the scars of time gone by, we should refrain from weaving plans from threads of illusions and hopes, yet we continue to craft them with an optimism that pulses deep within our veins, like a reflex of the dying seeking light in the final darkness of the day. We cling to...

I love you both with all my heart, But Mum, you tore that love apart. You made me choose, you made me cry, While Dad was left to wonder why. You spoke of him with poisoned tongue, Bad words for ears still far too young. You painted him in shades of wrong, And made me feel I don’t belong. He wasn’t perfect, neither...

It is a beautiful spring day, birds are singing their little hearts out. I am rocking in my favorite rocking chair, as a cool breeze covers me like a blanket. What could get better than this, I ask - as I sit and ponder? "There's a river meandering through the mind," with many thoughts. Thoughts are running wild, like the river meandering around...

My grief riddled mind is racing my heart is beating fast and my breaths are shallow as I wake up from a troubled dream And I remember that my son is gone I can't even remember exactly what was troubling about the dream, but reality hits the moment that I fully wake up My son is gone I suspect this will happen daily until it really...

I wore my sins like velvet lace, Then set your garden all ablaze. I never once said I was kind-- I only promised not to mind. The chandelier you loved? It fell. I laughed and called it “doing well.” Your rules were quaint, but far too tight-- I loosened them with fire and bite. Abandon all grace here, my dear-- The wine is sharp,...
