Lovesick Poems

Premium MemberMy Heart is Lovesick

The days are drear, the days are long
the nights are silent without song,
my heart, my love, knows only fear~
the days are long, the days are drear.

The quest was yours right from the start
my love knows only fear, my heart
still beats for you above all cures,
right from the start the quest was yours.

My heart is lovesick,

The Moon Looks Lonely Tonight

The moon looks lonely tonight.
Or maybe it always was.
I don’t know.
I never really noticed before.
it always seemed so bright,
so surrounded, so admired.
How could something so full of light
feel so alone, right?

But tonight it feels different.
Tonight, I see it.
Or am i projecting? 
Maybe it’s not the moon that changed.
Maybe it’s just me.

You remember when I told

All The Things I Hate About You

You asked, "out of everyone, why me?"
I know the answer now, maybe.

They come to me, drawn in
by the way I’ve been existing. 
They compliment the things 
they can see.
but none of it matters,
it never did to me.
Because I know, deep down,
they don’t really see me.
Not like the way, i let you see.

And I hate that.
I

A Word To The Love Sick World

This is a call to all sufferers 
 hanging themselves in their own arms
apart from the one they desire 
tired of nights sleeping alone
restless in grave prisons of the 
 place they would rather be,
whispering wishes and psalms to the
 silence of walls that will never speak.

Seeking out their most beloved unknowns 
that which they

I had suddenly become oh so violently ill
Through the days in which you made my own longing heart stand still.
I have to ensure I do not lose control, by taking this pill.

Premium MemberTRI Break Up Advice


When dealing with a love-sick fool
One must be strict and must be strong
And follow this one simple rule
Don't let them be a hanger-on

One must be strict and must be strong
To bring such foolishness to end
And a new love then to begin

And follow this one simple rule
Say, "no", I know it's hard to do
But all else

Lovesick

Fire and sparks that you gave me,
You gave me through your touch.
Not the body but the soul,
Made me feel like I was in a musical.

Dancing around in a golden dress,
Along with singing cups.
Even huge cold corridor, 
Makes me feel like I m in a delusion.

From wolves to singing forks,
From a library to a dying rose.
No

Premium MemberLove Letter for April :139:

Dear Love,
Just a quick note:
You caught me unawares
I thought I lived in circles
You taught me to accept squares
I write to ask for guidance
As straight lines tend to bend
The route we thought before us
Down a different path does send

You have a reputation
That has helped us through the age..
The compassion of a mother
The wisdom of a sage
So

Symphony

I can't help but talk to you
I'd just love to walk with you
I'm fixed and I'm broken 
I dream while I'm woken
There's no place I'd rather be
My heart strings; a symphony
If only you'd sing to me
Those words only spoken

It's magical fantasy 
Too hard for this man to see
What's clearly in view
It's shiney, still new
My life

A lovesick poke took his guitar
to find his true love at the bars.
When her beau heard the tune,
he went over the moon,
crashed to earth, and saw lots of stars.

She told me to write about love…
…fine.

…

I gave up on you.
I gave up on your testaments.
I gave up on the way you said to hold on tight.

You told me you would hold me like you used to.
You told me you would scold me like you used to.

Because I liked your attitude,
Allegedly.

…

I would be taken aback
When

Lucidity

When I walk in the dark, I only see
Between the lashes of your veiled eyes
And I take your counsel loyally
As a sick man his pill
‘Cos you are the Strong
I am the Weak
You lead
I follow
But light has come to stay
I will from today walk by the light
You force to my senses

Treacherous teacher!
What do you know about

The Well of Life

The gated wall they stood before 
No timber seemed  awake to them; 
no splinter stirred amidst the wood, 
the nails now rusty in their beds, 
where once brave Knights had deftly trod 
on mounted horses,  
all bejewelled. 
True Knights  and Barons who heralded The Cause.  
That narrowest of narrow paths,
