Longing For Love Poems - Poems about Longing For Love

Letter unknown

Under a yellow lamp I wrote a letter,
Poured my heart on a paper,

The ink I used was my own blood,
A red crimson on a white pearl,

I placed it under a purple envelope,
Fold it with great adoration,
Let me pour the hot wax and seal it  with precious florals
It  was adorned with jems and stones,
The

Premium MemberSame Old Evening

The evening comes, I recognize
The same old evening’s here
A blurry line across the skies
The sounds of cars I hear
Quite as distinguished as they were
From the embankment side
The motorbikes are also there
Their engines never die
They fade into the background soon
And silence chills the breeze
It fills the gap between my room
And crowns of the trees
And everything looks

I have loved too much,
its just imagery in my head.
You can tease me kindly
and I'll love you fondly,
I know its flirting at the end,
Those all-seeing eyes
like the shining of bright
Pelicans flap and cry
when its not time to fly.
Dead at the end graffiti
A rebel's chest not perished.
These old steps decrepit
barely can take my weight
and my visions

My heart stripped bare

Each day, you make my heart race a long mile,
Yet you've always deprived me of your smile,
Your neglect and your frown work hand in glove,
As if that’s the price I’ve to pay for love.

Each of my words, to your deaf ear they land,
Why don't you want to kiss my shaky hand,
And send a cold thrill

When the Tide Remembers!

The sea was a whisper before it was water,
cleaved through the wind.
I stepped into its silver mouth,
waves curling something pressing in
a wistful longing for a past I never knew.

Seagulls traced ethereal designs across the expanse
their wails scattered like fragments.
Somewhere underneath the foam,
the past was fossilized within sedimentary strata
waiting for my hands to delve deep enough

attachment

i try and paint you in a bad light inside my head 
to create a reason to get over you but no matter how hard i try
all i can think of is you
you consume my mind
take control of my speech 
i will always drift back to you no matter how hard the universe can rip

Your flowering wet meadows
reflected, wonder glinting in green eyes,
stumbling arms wrapped in
gentle padows,
tender individual silky drying strands,
elevate every blissful kiss of hair
fingers trembling,  marks my scars bare

GOD ONLY KNOWS

songer.co/song/viootoniewxyj6ra7fsadyjk

Verse 1
I saw your name carved in a dream I forgot to remember
You lit a match in the fog of a long-lost December
You walked the safe roads, quiet and confined,
While I built altars from the scraps left behind.

Refrain
God only knows...
What songs we lost...
Way back then...
God only knows...
The silence where...
They might have been...

Verse 2
He put a

lost

Our old memories, the only comfort I have from you.
Every day, you’re jogging around my mind,
Like a ghost, haunting the same house.
Forever moving further and further away.
I wonder, do you still feel this way?

Do I haunt your dreams?
Do I pester your unconscious mind?
In the rooms I stand in, you follow in the corners.
I hear your

ABELARD’S LAMENT FOR HELOISE

songer.co/song/j1a384koqvh6fmx6jb40ftmf

[Verse 1]
I shut my eyes, and there you are,
Like smoke that fades but leaves a scar.
I reach to touch, but it slips away —
A darkened ash where love used to stay.

Your beauty, a spark that lit the night,
Your words, sharp knives of truth and light.
But now I’m bound in this silent cell,
A man fallen from

Hello, old friend

"Grievance upon you,
       My mere mortal kin.
       You didn’t try hard enough,
       Now sit with your sin"

I’ve sat here before,
And I know your game.
You feed on my sorrow
And wear it as shame.

     "You

Premium MemberMy Secret Plight

Shadows shift in flickering flame
Vows made, now stained with your name
Our flame, once bold and bright
Now wanes upon this cold, stark night

I see the distance in your eyes
Reflecting echoes of love’s goodbye
Emptiness fills your silent stare
A longing still lingers in the air

Your heart, once gentle, has lost its grace
Betrayal bleeds—a bitter taste 
Sarcasm drips from

Really a goodbye?

Nobody told me
The fear of losing
For loving someone so hard
Was something so harsh
Saw you then not too long after
Give or take just years later
Turned my head back, saw your smile
Happiest I've felt in a while

A Night Sky Affair

A silvery dream upon the night sky
Shining betwixt the tiny shimmers
Queen of the dark alam is she,
Beauty resting upon her in sanctity
That mere words can’t help but flatter
Brimming with epics at her flower beds
That the poets sing praises
But none versed enough
To match her luminous attire

Her light, a divine compassion
Enlightening lost hearts,
Blistering romantic rivers in every

SINGING SOLO

songer.co/songs/d13xwglmtpey1ifgc5pvm4kc

[Verse 1]
Remember meeting on a whim,
First night stars in the dim,
Loving me, forgetting him,
It felt like lyrics from heaven, a sweet hymn.
Those early days, all together,
Made me light as a feather,
No way on earth to deny,
How you made me so high.
Every cloud above knew my name,
Now I’m wrapped in this pain,
Wishing for those days, driving
