One Sided Love Poems

She Was the Story, He Was Just a Page


He loved her
like the last day of autumn —
knowing she'd leave,
but holding on
as if his hands could change the season.

She wasn’t just a chapter —
she was the entire book
he never finished,
because he kept rereading
the parts where she smiled.

He built a world around her absence,
talked to her like she still listened
in the silence of 3 a.m.

Ignorance

I hate how it always ends up like that.
How I get ignored for several hours.
And reply within a few seconds.
To think that you didn’t care as much as I do.
Engraves a sense of solitude in my heart.
I can’t call myself anything but a fool.
To hopelessly stare blankly at a screen.
How can I have these emotions,

Mazh Pahil Prem

Pahilyanda pahata kshani tula mi,
Kuthetari harvale…
Man tuzyat gahivarle…
Pratyek shwas bharavla,
Tu distach, 
Majhya manatil pratyek disha unchavlya...

Vichar kela kadhi tuzyashi bolaycha,
Pan manatle bhav, kadhi jibhevarche shabd nahi tolayche…
Tu distach, mi lapayche…
Swatahla savarayche…
Vatayche kadhi konala kalal tar,
Ka mahiti swatahlya tyach kshani kase japayche...
Manala kase sambhalayche...

Shuddhshah, avaghe 5 varshe mi swatah la samjavat rahile...
Swatahsobat ekatech bolat rahile...
Aaj matra

The unsent message

Staring at the screen, a message unspoken Parallel universes whisper, 'what if?' unbroken Should I send it, or let it fade? A choice that echoes through the cosmic shade

What we have is amazing, a love so true But what we could have is tremendous, waiting anew A possibility that beckons, a chance to explore A

Sunspotting You

you’re bright 
so dazzlingly, overwhelmingly bright;
you’re the sun that sears the sky and
all the earth can only stare

i want to hold you
to cup you in my hands
 to feel your warmth between my 
palms and see your light run through my fingers

for the rest of my life, i want to have you with me
to warm

The Lover's Leap

The Lover’s Leap


I know he never loved me.
If he did, he would have stopped me
Or taken me by the hand, the waist, the leg
And yet he dropped me.

He made me use my own two feet to run
To skip, to leap and run
To tasteless fantasies until my heart 
And soul were gone and done.

I reached his

HE AND HIS PRESENT

After quite long I again saw those eyes
And it felt like there are still some butterflies
It was like my feelings got another rise
I lost one more time, from where it all arise.
I can see myself still desiring to wait
To just have a glance, outside the school gate
Observing your each giggle and every trait
How do I

One-Sided Love

I fell for you.
Only you.
You returned that feeling,
oh so long you returned the feeling.
You never once lost love for a second.
Until you met her.
You gave her what I begged for.
You gave her more love,
more attention,
then you gave me.
I begged the universe,
“Please keep him in my life,
I need him, I love him.”
But in the end,
you left

One Sided Lover

You said I fall in love too quickly,
and id have to say you're right.
Sometimes I just look in her eyes, 
and everything feels right.

To me she's like cars to a road,
what the sand is to a shore,
to me she's not just a person,
she's much much more.

I keep it as a secret,
I wonder what they'd say.
Its

Abcs of a One-Sided Love Mr

A lazy afternoon 
And an empty classroom.
As I’m about to fall asleep,
At the same time
I fell for you.

“Because” you look
Beautiful in my eyes, and
Because of then, I’ve been getting
Butterflies at the glimpse of you doing what you
Love, making me fall for you even harder.

Catching a glimpse from time to time,
‘Cause it’s the same way you
Caught

One Sided Love

I wish I could tame my wild feelings
Cut it's fangs and trim it's wings
I wish I could bind it to a stake
Even for a day,
For it teaches my heart to wonder
Draging it along
Even as it wonders off
Misled by the fragrance of you
and still comes home
Drenched in a pool of pity
For you never cared
Even when it

So This Is Love

He vowed to love her forevermore—
But already forgot her trivial name.

Love Hurts

It's not the void of your absence,
rather you are too full into my heart.
I'm trying to defy your silent presence,
but it's really hard to stay apart.
My pen is paining, 
so as my heart.
I'm learning each day from you to be unknown,
but my heart is denying being completely apart.
Oh, you heartless, go far or be mine

The Power of One Sided Love

There are two sides to a story,
A truth and a lie;
I will perish no religion,
What shall come ahead,
I will fight hard to survive;
I would make a secret potion,
That I have brewed in my mind;
It is a wild poison,
That I shall drink every night;
I know it isn't random,
For some spark to ignite;
The power of one sided

One Sided Love

What do you know about
One sided love
It makes us fearless
to lose our lover
As we know
Our lover is not kind to us
But we do everything
To make our lover happy
