Imbalance Poems - Poems about Imbalance

it was never love, just imbalance

i used to think
loving you too much
was romantic.

now i see—
it was me
giving away parts of myself
like clearance items,
hoping you’d find value
in something
i had already discounted.

you thought my devotion
was desperation.

you watched me fold
into smaller versions of myself
just to fit your world.

and when i broke,
you called me dramatic.

but i wasn’t asking for too much.

i was just asking

Imbalance

Feet walking with direction and decision

Mouth speaking sweet words

Not riddled with derision

Heart beating for pure love

With no malice or spite

Eyes seeking and finding acceptance

With no attachment of wrong or right

Ears listening for a moment of bonding

Not tools for inspection

Head held high with pride, positivity, and deep reflection

Forbidden

blood transfusion

virtue is nothing claimed
nothing but acceptance
weary roads of unstable
to reach out to my mother
inherited sadness, taken-on imbalance
derangement of two, nobody understood.

the so-called wise woman said "ignore,
ignore the signals"
how could i be so ruthless
and oversee the madness
tying us through this long hall of the past
no one takes a step
neither could walk away
to break the curse and

Love is a bit of comedy, so be rough with love.

He arranges her one way and then another, 
in itchy dissatisfaction. She surrenders to the role 
like a silent bystander, a plaything in the hands 
of impatience - what does he want? 

“Like this,” he says in a schoolteacher’s voice.

The imbalance of power, the almost

Mental Balance

So you have an imbalance
And you still live in the real
Real world things affect you differently
And you take meds to keep you
Well…chilled and balance.

So you suffer from depression at times
And for different reasons 
You get sad
You recently lost a parent
And you feel guilty and just plain bad.
You use what the world called coping skills
Just to

Premium MemberI Remember the Days

I remember the days
before technology
before computers
before cell phones
before smart tvs

In particular
I remember one summer day
when I heard on the radio
that the microwave oven
had been invented !
I really thought this was it ~
they had finally invented
every possible thing
but then…
they put a man on the moon
and it was only the beginning !

How our world has since
spun out

Emotional Imbalance

For Christ sake, shut up!
And let me be
Why must you always come up
At times like this?

What have I done to you
To deserve this torture
As a prize from you?
This wasn’t my plan for a better future
The rest I seek to have 
You won’t let find
The peace I desire to know
You won’t let me behold

You are tearing

Imbalance

Imbalance
 
Was it worth it I say to you my Lord?
The agony and the despair in a group.
Right and wrong define a mega-loop.
Some are enthralled others are bored.
 
Some balanced to strike a right chord.
You give you take with one big whoop.
I see and I blend like a homemade soup.
I adjust and readjust daily with

Emotional Imbalance

My knees get weak-

As you whisper;

Sweet nothings in my ear.

 

I start to shiver

At the words delivered,

Our fate becoming clear.

 

You caress my skin, 

Leaving trails of kisses;

Every place you touch.

 

My breath deepens-

As your mouth meets mine.

The pleasure is getting to be too much.

 

Our passion is apparent.

Our kisses become rhythm.

Our love becomes a

The Imbalance of Honesty

I was led to believe that inner beauty speaks volumes.
But chapter by chapter i am inclined to regret my hard reading.
The time has been worn down with cheap adaptations.
Furthering my belief that the past i should have no recollection.

She became tepid with her second hand emotions.
Sullen in voice yet destructive with sedation.
Page by page a

Harmoneous Imbalance

We possess a harmonious imbalance;
A teetering of steadiness
Placed on a soft rock.

The night brings us so much light;
With my eyes closed, I see
You’re moving, but still.

Gently, I forcefully place my hands
Upon your wet, but dry being,
Drowning me in thirst.

The distance keeps us forever close;
In our minds, our bodies are one
Screaming quietly.
