Lovers Poems

Premium MemberProstitutes and Lovers

I. Prostitutes 
Poets words are prostitutes,
Used for any writer’s pleasure,
‘Love’ and ‘death,’ ‘light’ and ‘dark,’
Among my worst offenders.

Unlike a painting’s virgin virtue,
With shapes like never seen before,
In colours just that very shade,
Unique in each of form.

Love and death are my whores too,
Whose rates are precious pain,
Never free the words we use,
Piercing time and time again.

Premium MemberEpithalamion for the Ark Lovers

There was once a dashing lad 
from the mid-coast of Maine

who courted a comely duchess
from the Westerly. Now, Maine is

two lands off from the Westerly 
which is a province under 

its own sovereign rule, on an Island 
named Rhode, but they rescued

what desperately needed to be loved 
in the other’s marrow, each 

of their own

If only you were

That summer night air forgot to
breathe, I forgot something too.
Not sure what, but I remember:

a star landed in the curved moon
—I saw it in the reflection
of my steaming apple tea

I remember wanting to
tell you, I witnessed a celestial love:
A lone star found her place
rested in the crescent’s embrace
I thought you’d love the story, a love
defying

Lovers kinda Bley

Told me you loved me
told me you cared
if thereah- problem
You'd always be there

I could lean on you
Cause you really loved me
Said you were my lover
My Lover and Friend

In such this obligation
a emotional stress
seems you were testing me
And I passed your test

Asked me to yours 
All to yourself 
Just me and you
And no one else

I saw

there's no true lovers

there’s no true lovers
but just lovers who never change
               so at this party morning

and you join

BUTTERFLY LOVERS

songer.co/song/kfuxcl6o4174njro9t82lspc

Verse 1
She hides behind the world they’ve made,
A daughter’s place, a masquerade.
But in her heart, the truth burns bright,
A love she can’t let go, out of sight.

Pre-Chorus 1
Through the years, their souls have danced,
A silent bond, a fleeting glance.
But promises made, in the shadows creep,
And she’s not the one he’s allowed to keep.

Chorus 1
She falls

Premium MemberRunaways

When your heartbeats drum their message of love.
My heart soars like the birds flying above.
As flashing thunder streaks across dark skies,
I will come swiftly, believe not their lies.

If any would stop me, my rage I’ll display.
Nothing or no one will stand in my way.
True love hath no captor, it must be free.
Our hearts and our

Time Travel for Lovers

Let's not 'do' Paris anymore
it has become a painted blemish,
yes, I know it's for lovers, but
so is Nashville and it breaks
your heart just as quickly.

London has got tired,
the old and the new are quarrelling
under the same umbrella.
Sweethearts are at odds,
the lonely walk
through the garish nights
slowly fading away
from their own sight.

Let's watch an old movie,

Soul'd Out

Guess I'm soul searching she's on my mind
with a heart that is hurting must have been blind
I wander these streets where we walked together
but places we'd meet are now stranger than ever
I think of those days gone by
and can't help but wonder why
I'm tossing and turning time on my hands
with a heart that is burning

We Were Almost Always

There was a time
your name felt like a beginning—
a gentle unfolding of everything soft
in a world that had grown too loud.

You weren’t just someone I loved.
You were a season.
A chapter where the pages turned slower
just to make it last.

We were never chaos,
never fire.
We were rain on windows,
late-night playlists,
hands brushing in silence.
Almosts wrapped in always.
Goodbyes hidden
