Platonic Love Poems


Not so platonic

Yellow  in your eyes—
seemed bright, but honeyed words didn’t feel right.

Letters that questioned truth and dare,
asked other girls—
green-eyed, now I won’t spare.

Engraved in my head, the lesson’s clear:
Don’t forget.
Player, player—why would he care?
Saw those chats, I won’t spare.

A green flag in your eyes
But I fear the truth hides in disguise
You call me dear, so

I say it's platonic love

I say, it's platonic love
And then I miss your smile
And then I miss your touch
And then I miss your presence

I shout, it's platonic love!
And then I wait by the phone 
And then I stare at your face
And then I break from your gaze

I question, it's platonic love?
But what if it isn't?

I say, it's platonic love
But

Our platonic love

Love. What is that? Love or love? Between? Between us?
Or between God and a sinner? Love kids, feel  hearts

Hmm, maybe I am a suffering companion of platonic love
Yes, maybe no. But real my love. Real is my only love; bye

I loved this woman, a warehouse worker loved an arrogant...
… an arrogant heart,

Premium MemberMy Platonic Mistress

When I saw her first here, I fell in love with her like a shot
She is an idealistically beautiful, impressive phenomenon
She is the dream, but in reality, memorable visual moments

I need her, I need one of them…, I have few mistress friends
This lady is an extraordinarily and idealistically  magical person
She is one of my

Eighty-Eight Keys

To eighty-eight keys, I was first introduced
With eighty-eight keys, my ears were seduced
But greetings started with just eight
The other eighty had to wait

Some years passed, I got to know better
The keys that were notes and their letters
Do to Sol is C, D, E, F, G
La, Ti is A, B, then back to C

Simple Do Re

Platonic Love

Friendships with Platonic love is  beautiful 
It makes everything in a relationship meaningful
There are no expectations or strings attached 
But, simply selfless and physically very detached 
It’s easy to trust and care, also love and forgive. 
Without any feelings of being clingy  or possessive 
As there are no expectations in such relationships

Verses For a Platonic Love

Formosa,
I conceive you are not mine,
probably never
you will be ... but that won't
prevents me from wanting you ...

Star,
I notice you are
hopelessly
distant, absent ...
but it doesn't erase
your countenance ...

Angel,
is that my soul
poet lover
absorb all beauty
that only raises
the wonder ...

Muse,
It's my heart
clings to everything
that inspires you
candor...

Soul friend ...
meet you
in spirit is up
most intense ...
I imagine you in

Platonic Love

Lampion in your heart 
Evening moon far away 
Landwinds blow aroma 
From your singing practice 
Titlark coming dancing 
Outside rhythmic drizzling

After the rainbow 
You threw the letter 
And said- Tonight's gift 
There I found life's hope 
Starry night's greeting 

Dark chocolate 
Bitter coffee 
gramophone songs 
recital verse 

Alone home 
smiling plash
Time without 

Carnal 
Desire 

Love

Platonic Love

True love never dies
Loyal souls never change
Don’t distort the beauty of fairytales
Don’t blame it on life
Don’t blame it on you
Don’t fake your heart
‘Cause I won't do
Thought you were my angel
So I gave you my wings
Now you're ready to fly?
I whined hey wait
But you're hailing goodbye
I offered you a platonic love
A virgin, a pure an innocent

My Platonic Love, 2

 I’ve really missed you
I know I’m not around much
Things are just so busy
And I know,
Lately I’ve only used you as a crutch.

A lot has happened since you’ve left
Heartbreak, suffering, and much more pain.
And all for what? Just personal gain.

He’s gone from my life,
And you’re all I’ve got that’s keeping me here.
All this internal, yet

My Platonic Love

Smiling and laughing,
It’s about the best thing around.
Keeping each other company,
Cause there’s nothing better to do in this town.

Sitting here waiting,
Until you leave.

Coming up quick..
Let’s just run away from it.

A depressing face I make,
When the last day comes.
I don’t want to upset you..
But now who will battle me with my thumbs?

Out creeps a smile,
Just as

Platonic Love

And the more i keep this feeling inside
The days pass
And im afraid you’re changing
Changing to something I didn’t know before.
If that happens, what am I going to do with this feeling?
Throw it away, like it was nothing?

But if I don’t wait,
And tell you now
Will you understand?
What will you do?

You’re getting distant
More, and more distant, every
