Long Unlove Poems

Humming in hemlock heartbeats ~
along the shorelines
which once swallowed the sun 
in their searing shadows ~
I see those smoking seawaves
swirling upon my skin, 
as the silhouettes
of damask dahlia damsels
drizzle and dance
in the tornadoes of 
tangerine...

WALLS AND WAILS

I am confined within these four walls
For far too long and pray a wall falls
And the guns jam with wardens asleep
As I take a walk of freedom, a leap
To a new world without...

“The only light from a sword have sheltered me from despair
The balance of reality and dreams, welcomes nothing to compare
Dreams were afterall the insanity of one’s desire
Made to believe moments before the awakening hour
This belongs...

Wish there were pills to calm a racing heart
One that longs for another heart to feel at peace
Runs marathons just for a mere sight
For a little dialogue to reignite the old spark
An eye contact to...

My heart sings as I walk on springs,
With foothold on the sun, unburned.
Your love fills my heart, my soul,
My whole being.
I swim in love – I fly without wings.
Joy clings to my feet,
Gratitude fills my...

Take a moment, think—
If there's a place we came from,
mustn't there be a place we're going to?
A river with a source
must have a mouth to truly be a river—
else, it’s a lake.
So too, a life...

As we grow closer, the heart changes, 
And sometimes it becomes empty,
People who loved us once, seemed happy with our love, 
Now seems to have a heart that's stone and blind. 

They say they haven't...

if only i could paragraph your halcyon breath,
i’d encompass your essence in eden’s beauty

our lips avowed in a kiss held in an
abyss of lingering reminiscence,
never seized in laden avails-

For I’d love to GIVE you colors-
       a sangria sunset, delicate crimson eventide (echoes of brilliant blue). 
You are the key to my heart,  s p r e...

I can't unthink about you.
I can't unfeel your love.
I can't unremember that Precious day.
I can't unknow your love.
I realize just how impossible it is, I can't unlove you!

I can't unsee your beauty.
I can't unshare your...

Am stuck in like a bad habit 
Stuck in like a broken record
Can't shake her off my thoughts even for a bit
My heart and brain are on a split
Like a broken record 

It like pandemonium...

The dream i have
Is below this earth
Being dragged down
By a man not worth
 
They way he treated
Me and our kids
Drank our money
Left us on the skids
 
Home he would come
In his drunken state
As we await
To...

{Let this night be embraced of love
Be of love to remember this night
For tomorrow once more is to serve
With a memory of once love to hide}

And as I slept from, I awoke
To a modern reality...

Love unlove

She wanted time
She thought with it we would change
She wouldn't wait,
did she care that we hurt?

We run to put space,
For she asked for space
But why did she say she loved us
as she walked on...

encompassed in the womb
through darkness, i felt touch
ethereal strums from fingers
against my unborn flesh
as a melody soothed
in rhythmic pulses
from your heart
...it's the only time i felt loved

you gave me life
taught me to walk
two steps shy...

I reach for you in crowded rooms, yet find only air,
Your absence lingers like a ghost that refuses to spare.
Once, your laughter filled the silence between my words,
Now, even echoes refuse to be heard.

I whisper...

I can't unlove because I am 
Impatient, selfish.
I love as if I cannot be hurt.
Going on as if nothing is wrong.
I cannot unlove because I know not how.
I spend my nights awake dreaming of how...

i bask in the nudity of your essence,
never knowing where to place my hands;
seeking the sighs of permanent pleasure
and never being able to unlove you-
for you are my new-born butterfly,
slipping into a kaleidoscope of monarchs,

I tried to unlove you, I swear I tried,
But your eyes pull me, like waves to the shore,
How can I forget what never died?

I search for you where the lost hopes hide,
A glance from you—my...

    your silhouette lingers into a soft verse-
 
I breathe in qualm just to sense your beauty. The willow weeps for the loss of you, and I am restless trying to forget...
