Love Poems | Beautiful and Romantic Poems About Love

Love is now a game of knives. She arrives in silk—smiling sweet— But what lies behind that smile? A mirror or deceit? She loves with terms. You, with blood. Her heart is wired not for truth But for security. What engine purrs beneath your car? Which gates conceal your home? What digits fill your bank account? These speak louder than your soul. You call it love— She calls...

Premium Member The gap between love and true love
When love is good, it's really great. Unfortunately for many when the sparkle fades, they don't know how to fix it. Seems easier for many to clear the slate and go for instant gratification of finding someone new. They're addicted to easy pickings and the high of novelty. The other side of that coin is they are cursed to never experience the depth of true and lasting love....

The Eternal Quilt
We are but patches in life’s quilt— Tangled together, Woven as one. Pull on a thread, Watch us unravel. Ignore my thread, and I disappear. Ragged, jagged knots. Rocks in my fists. Bound in silence, Kneeling like a penitent saint, Hands stigmata-bright on shattered glass. A disciple of death. I watch behind the curtain: Frayed. Treacherous. Mister looks my way. Sad eyes, owlish. Kohl-ringed and ostentatious. Painted into empty space. Looking like a...

WORSE THEN DOGS
WORSE THAN DOGS Mi step off di docks, salt burn in mi chest, Suit sharp-press, hope pin to mi vest. Windrush blood, calypso fire, Dreams of gold — meet cold barbed wire. “Welcome,” dem sneer wid a crooked grin, Door slam shut — all ‘cause a mi skin. Signs in window cut like knives: NO BLACKS. NO DOGS. NO IRISH. — lives. But truth...

Premium Member Unrequited Love
You anchor your rancor, a cancerous canker, Not just any mole Your hatred you hide it, you split and divide it, It's soured your soul The women, you bait them, you date and berate them, You're no kind of man You're just out for the kill and you spill out your swill, Like nobody can Their hearts beating faster, they race towards disaster, Watch...

Premium Member Belle
Faintly the church bell tolls On the hour, faintly she sighs She cries out to the Lord About the how's and whys She's a women (Some say she is scorned) Most don't see the women I see A lover with love she's adorned She can smile in the sun And hide in the moon But when she has a sad I feel our hearts rhythm...

FOUR YEARS STILL STANDING
FOUR YEARS, STILL STANDING Four years bleeding, four years bruised, Four years fighting, four years used. Carried the weight till my back near broke, Choked on silence, swallowed the smoke. Four years of bills and sleepless nights, Four years swinging at shadows and lies. Loved and lost, trust turned thin, Hiding the chaos I’m drowning in. Four years scraping, hand to mouth, Hope ran dry,...

KEEP CALM AND CARRY THE CORPSE
KEEP CALM AND CARRY THE CORPSE. Britain bleeds through cracked red bricks, Rain on windows, cold that sticks. Bills climb high, wages crawl, We’re taxed to the teeth — can’t breathe at all. “Keep calm and carry the corpse,” they say. Drag it through life, day after day. Smile for the cameras, wave the flag, Ignore the stench in the body bag. Politicians promise...

Poison Pill Song
[Verse 1] Dance near the silver bridge Drop a penny in A penny for your thoughts You smiled like the end of the world ? [Pre-Chorus – Extended] You wrap your soul around me Like silk that strangles soft Every heartbeat borrowed Suddenly, I’m suffocating ? [Chorus – Haunting, Echoed Vocals] I can’t breathe I can’t breathe anymore Your kiss was a poison pill Your lipstick inked like blood You swore it...

A TENDER VERSE
To you I write This tender verse My dearest Lover at first glance. I was no believer In love struck on sight Calling it mere heat Not heart. But you changed that. Words may fade Ink may dry Even the sky may lose its blue But with you, I feel whole. So I write With ink steeped in longing Softly asking For your hand, if you're willing....

Faded Into You Song lyrics
[Verse 1] After mind hug I was waiting in the dark Warm as the kiss You never gave me Time didn’t stop But I did Right where you left me [Pre-Chorus] Even angels are bored We ran out of time I still whisper your name Like a secret line [Chorus] Don’t walk away I’m already faded into you All the versions of us Burning out in other galaxies I loved you louder in...

Galaxies of Growth
After mind hug, I was waiting in the dark — warm as the kiss you never gave me. Time didn’t stop, but I did — right where you left me. Even angels were bored. We ran out of time. I still whisper your name like a secret line. Don’t walk away — I’m already faded into you. All the versions of us burning out in other galaxies. I loved you...
