Left Poems - Poems about Left

The psyche was burned and left us numb, floating like a boat without oars on an endless river, the world was darker than the pitch-black of a closet full of hungry bats, and the whiskey and wine seeped deep into our weary veins, when the blood was too weak to carry the burden of our lost dreams, we surrendered...

I will drive anywhere If I don’t have to make a left Unless it’s a driveway and there are no other cars on the street If it is an intersection without an arrow I will drive twelve miles out of my way And drive a box to come in on the other side So, I can make a right...

Obtuse abuse..rude platitudes shout.. About alternative attitudes..generations.. Scream at different altitudes & latitudes.. Venerate mandarins sins.. Generate pernicious vicissitudes Vicious avaricious machinations.. Celebrate nations chagrin… Pander to propaganda spin.. AI garlanded reputations.. Cohorts in suits cavort in cahoots.. Kiss or diss..the abyss Hiss of mis-information bliss.. Arrests..capitalist corporate conquests...detests protest.. Well got egregious prior & previous.. SO Whatever your hue or world view.. We know what's wrong..doesn't belong Deliriously daring to...

between the words, silence spills, refracts while a shadow trace the void you left roots-entwined earth – too sacred to disturb as arum lilies recall your grace ...

While the sun was slipping away You left me With a gifted moment A moment that lessened fears Yet hastened tears A moment that spoke to me Yet set you free A moment that caressed my heart Yet put apart A moment that fostered giving Yet nurtured living A moment that clarified a decision Yet cleared my vision While the sun was slipping away You left me With a gifted...

Today I opened my cupboard, I found your letters, kept in a box, Which you gave me, The dried roses still smell like you, Like your...

The melody takes root, a fragile, budding thing, A whisper in the soul, a joy it wants to sing. But silence holds a wisdom deep and vast, Where not all yearnings into music last. Some chords are dissonant, a jarring, painful sound, Recalling hurts that best remain unbound. A lyric etched in bitterness and blame, A flickering ember of a dying flame. The...

(The Hollow City Cycle include: The Hollow City I Remember You -- the city speaks Last One Left) They never saw me-- not fully. Even when I begged them with my eyes, or left poems scratched on alley walls between peeling posters and prayer graffiti. When they fled, I stayed. Not out of bravery, but because I had nowhere else to go. Now the city wears silence like...

We walk the same road every day You walking one way and I another We need rarely to ever speak when we pass because we can read each other’s looks What is never said speaks the loudest We know what is there, and what is not You poke at me and I play along I get silent and make you wonder if...

It was 6 years ago, But it feels like yesterday, That I said goodbye to you, While trying to keep my pain at bay. We grew up in this town, We got 7 great years, Little did we know, It would all end with tears. You visited last year, And we still talk day to day, But it’s not the same, Because you’re 1,000 miles away. Things...

Twin eyes, twin perspectives Pick your poison; they're both too hard to explain The cloudy sphere raining down once again While it's earthen brother quakes uncontrollably Ten years passed as ten years started A growling eclipse blots the sun and spreads disease It goes by many names, many forms As it eternally revolves far beyond my reach The boy died in a snowstorm...

The day you left, I was miserable. The day you left, I was crying. The day you left, I was questioning my worth. You were my everything. You promised to never leave me, you promised to never hurt me. You said you were sorry. But that won’t take back, the crack in my heart....

First time when I saw you Tried to adore you But you assumed that It was uncanny I feel something in my bones That I'm in friendzone But I wanted to make something true And it's kinda cruel You didn't liked me You didn't want to answer anything Now you're with your close one Sending photos of holding hands To me I only left with a broken heart now...
