Lost Lovelove Poems | Examples

Without You

I love you,
I can not think of a better way
To spend my life
To be with you everyday.
I think about you every minute.
I hope you think about me.
There is no other place, 
I would rather be.
Just a glimpse of your face,
You make my life complete.
You make it simple and easy.
I love you, my baby.
Do not ever leave me.
I do not want to be alone.
I could not survive without you.
I think I would die out on my own
'Cause I do not know what else to do
Without you...

Love In Reverse

My love, were you as steadfast as I,
We'd drive the neverending chain 
link
of a bond unbreakable and rev 
towards
the fever of a solidified love affair.
Yet, I ride alone in despair and pass
scenes of you falling out of love with 
me.
From our last I love you to our first 
hello,
I see the twinkle in your eyes fade 
for me.

And of all reasons to brake for 
break,
you change gears with good intent...
And I find that to be the most 
painful.
Knowing, that I alone was not 
enough
to heal your fractured sense of self...
A failure I shall regret until I unlearn
my first memory...
For to have known you, is the one 
ride
of my thoughts that contained pure 
freedom.
Now, they fade in the wind shield as 
I
do 100 to 0 in the lane of smitten 
wonder.

And should I be able to forget the 
best of you,
I pray by moonlight that reverse 
becomes
forward, and I can catch your smile 
in my
dreams without knowing your face 
again.
Just an image of an unknown 
purpose that
lives around the corner of time and 
patience.
It is there, on this blind faith avenue, 
that I
 will carry you back home from the 
life we 
never had the chance to live...


Every Trait

Looking up at the sky so blue
Gentle breeze carries the scent of you
Nose fills with your sweet smell
Look around but to no avail
Just a cruel memory that i can't forget
Broken pieces that haven't been swept out 
yet
Teases the heart like dangling a rodent I'm 
front of a snake
Why were those choices at the time so 
easy to make
So brash and unplanned our fate was 
chosen
Moments in my head so still seem to be 
frozen
Our separate ways we went but we are 
forever bound together in this life
The three lives we created are still here 
even through the strife
The beauty of our love that was once so 
great
I love them and cherish them for they 
share with you what feels like every trait

You'Ll Never Understand

You'll never understand, 
how much I love you. 
You'll never understand, 
how much your smile brightens 
my day.
You'll never understand, 
the way your eyes glisten in the 
sunlight.
You'll never understand, 
how your life could be better,
with me always by your side.
And now,
you'll never know,
because I am gone.
Because without you, 
I have no reason to live.
But just remember,
i'll always love you,
even if I'm now only a memory.

Shades of Gray

I walked down the street,
Hoping to sweep you off your 
feet.
I climbed up the stair,
Planning to brush back your 
hair.
I strolled through the hall,
Thinking that for me, you 
would fall.

But I was wrong,
Things don’t turn out that way.
I was wrong,
Life is colored in shades of 
gray.

 I long for what I never knew,
I wish for what we never had.
What you had was a chance,
But it blew right past your 
head.

My love was what I had for 
you,
Your love was all I knew from 
you.
To me, your love just seemed 
so vain,
To me, your hate was seething 
pain.

 

At the days end, 
It feels like it never began,
At the days end, 
I’m running through the dark 
again.
So at the end of the day, 
all I see,
Is that life is colored,
 in shades of gray.

Why oh why did our sweet love die:
Did another fancy come nigh:
                to take my part?

Sad is a heart so full of care,
the 'morrow's what will be
on the sleeve,all life does wear
                 For all to see

So my dear,true heart's desire
is  a love,as will not die:
with a heart,that burns as fire
with  love's passion,ever nigh....
           
If..,she and I are to be we
True love for us may not be-
I see now..,'til I love her...

..as she loves me
Form: Verse

My Fear

My greatest fear, is that one 
day you will look at me and 
say, " I'm sorry, but I don't 
love you anymore, I'm in love 
with someone else. "
Then turn around and walk 
right out of my life forever.
Why must you leave? Did I do 
something to push you away. 
You say you love her, but I 
know you really don't.. or 
maybe it's just a hope. Don't 
leave, not today, not now, not 
ever. Don't run away from me. 
I love you forever and always. I 
meant it, you didn't. Goodbye 
my love.

Trust Issues

She says quietly to her dad 
"Be kind, I'm being loved by someone 
Let him 
Its a good feeling 
One everyone should experience" 
He blinked 
He says 
"I know love 
I've seen love 
All sorts of it 
I can't say that's anything close to it 
 Maybe you should let go " 
She cries 
She unconsciously wrote somewhere 
In her head 
To trust daddy 
He would know better 
But her heart fought all of that
Form: ABC

Bright

It is raining outside
and, truth be told, I miss you.
It's not something I say out loud.
But this one time I can write it
and let myself admit it.
I miss the feel of your palm
resting against my cheek.
I can barely remember 
the feel of you beside me.
Perhaps there is mercy in that.
I don't love you anymore,
but I also don't not love you anymore.
Everything contradicts itself,
but your eyes are clear and bright
like the light above my doorway.

I'D Rather

I'd rather end this with anger,

If I don't I'll come back to you like a beggar.

I'd rather end with hatred towards you,

Because deep down I know I still love you.


I'd rather end this detesting you in every way,

If I didn't I would be on my knees asking you to stay.

I'd rather see you as my eternal enemy,

If I didn't I would continue to love you endlessly.


I'd rather wish you the worst than the best,

If I didn't I know I wouldn't pass this test.

I'd rather destroy your painful memory today,

If I don't it will destroy me day by day.

Out of Reach

She walks down the aisle with such beauty and grace
Your heartbeat quickens as you gaze into her lovely face
Tears well in your eyes and hers do the same
When you think of real love, you think of her name

I am not the one who is the keeper of your heart
For you and I there is no “till death do us part”
Years, decades go by… it never fades.
Memories open scars like the sharpest of blades

Seems the heart always wants what is just out of reach.
Love can learn and love can teach.
Don’t ever forget how much we both cared.
I will always hold onto the love that we shared.

Saying goodbye to dreams of a past life
Opening the door to your future with your beautiful wife
We aren’t in the cards; we were not meant to be
Spread your wings and fly and be free!

Loves Pieces

Loves Pieces

Like discarded shards of glass, the pieces of my heart
Lay in broken disarray since we have been apart
I loved you then, I love you now, what more can I say
Did I hold you much to close, did that push you away

Is it something that I said, something I spoke in haste
Did I hurt you with my words and leave a bitter taste
Perhaps something I did not say that you longed to hear
A kind word or platitude like how much I love you dear

Could it be the way I look.  Perhaps I've changed too much
I'm no longer as attractive and you no longer crave my touch
Or perhaps you just know me so well, you've grown bored by me
Familiarity breeds contempt they say, you don't like what you see

But wait, who said the problems mine, that I'm the one to blame
Who said that I'm the reason that things are not the same
I still have so much to give, my love, my heart, my soul
I'll pick up all the pieces and find someone to make them whole

Slow Dance

Slow Dance

Since you've been gone
I'm sitting here thinking 
what went wrong
Doing only ok
Time slipping away
Like January wrapped inside of May

I miss your touch
the love in your face
your lips closing in
your strong embrace
2 angels we made laying side by side
 snowball fights, late nights
holding you by the firelight

Slow dance
wanna go on forever
 let's make it last
our bodies melting together
 this heart is burning up in all your love
 we fit together like a ball and glove

Feeling your sweet breath inside of me
the warmth of your skin drinks me in softly

 Slow dance

A tear falls down my windowpane
a track reminding me
another one closely following
grabs a hold starts slow dancing
like this love our greatest fear
hits the ground and disappears
looking back through all these years

You will always be to me my first slow dance.
Form: Lyric

Love

Love

Love is a strong word
I don't use it much, because it's 
To easy to fog
So I leave it to the one who knows not to rob it
Love for me has left for awhile
But that's ok for now I get to smile
I know we don't want to corrupt what is place here to 
increase the quality of life, but every now and then it can cause 
lots of strife
Not because we can't love if we decide, but because we 
can't
Say it without lieing
So whenever you love tell the truth
And you'll have a peace that spreads to the youth
And if they get a better example
We won't live life only getting a sample.

Greatest Love of All

Such a great love from strangers
Past stale love potsherds
Like a mist it ceased abruptly
Though it seemed unlikely

Poignant memories linger
Cool-hot embraces are no longer
Who is lost in the love’s muddle now?

But why me and how?

An elegy I earnestly draft
To mourn a love full of rot
When no one even thought 
It’d end up as a random thought
That is vivid in the mind for a moment
And flies up to memories long lost
