Pushes Poems | Examples


My I Love You Pushes You Away

I’m at a loss for all words
I only have myself to blame
I miss your good mornings
And how you brighten up my days

Every time we get closer
And I think you’re gonna stay
I write those three words
And says the thing I shouldn’t say

My I love you always
Pushes you away
Should I write of how I want you
Or how much I appreciate 

For me there is a yearning
I guess for you it’s not the same
Im sorry my I love you
Always pushes you away 

Don’t wanna hear your goodbye
Yes I love so I’ll let go
Spread your wings but if you return
Please let me be the first to know

I’ve masked feelings for so long
My silent prayers call out your name
I believe it’s fate and not free will
That brings such pleasure and such pain

My I love you always
Pushes you away
Should I write of how I want you
Or how much I appreciate 

For me there is a yearning
I guess for you it’s not the same
Im sorry my I love you
Always pushes you away

Time won’t help me heal
From what can never be replaced
I’m not sorry that I love you
I will until my dying day

I’m just sorry my I love you
Always pushes you.....away

When Life Pushes Me

Life may take from me more than
I can ever bear to lose
But it will never steal from me
My heart's heavenly hues!

Within me shines a thousand raindrops
That in me form a rainbow!
And at night, my soul shimmers
With the Milky Way's silken glow!

The world is cruel, dark and dreary—
With that much I agree.
But no night is dark enough
To put out the flames in me!

The world has tried to push me to hell
But with each day I rise higher!
For when life pushes at me
I'm only pushed to fight harder!

The Needle Pushes: An Ode To the Pink Floyd Song Comfortably Numb

the needle pushes in her face 
a kiss and the wall scratches 
higher naked searching cracks
for an exit you scream soldiers
planes flash back and forth flying
a room fills with angry anxious
voices shadows growing tall
corpses rise flowers swallow
space white crosses over graves
praying mantis mothers explode
down the endless fluorescent
hall your lifted into the 
long black limo ripping worms
from your face

the wind pushes on

from the west to the far east

seeks its destiny

The Gull That Pushes North

What is this drug
That beats upon me with
Winged feet and heated hands?
What is it?
Is it the wine?
Is it the gull that pushes north?
Is it the tickling at my spine?

It doesn't stop.
Not even when I'm full.
It keeps it open and raw,
Still pushing 
For another days distraction.
