Broken love
open flesh wound

Come and Mend the Broken Love

Bouquet in your hand 
Loveless love I tend 
Except smile 
Don't leave file 
Broken wall please mend!

Your phoenix tattoo
Etched in inks, black, red and blue. 
Firebird for Firebrand. 
Risen, emancipated, 
Unshackled from broken love.

Beautiful Fall

Beautiful walls
A never ending fall
Colored in mist
Drowning in kisses
It’s a beautiful lie
A never ending life
Drawn in crayons of
Broken love.

Broken Love

iron hammer, broken magnet in thousand pieces
even though, its keep attracted towards iron
like my heart,will always attracted in you with all broken pieces.

Untitled

Broken love.
Fancy flesh.
Driven mad.
Cool and clean.

  I'm thinking of desire
  and playing with fire.
  I'm getting higher and higher.
  The spark of innocence
  is upon me.

Whisper

She comes as quite as a whisper, 
Behaving as calm as a snail. 

Still somehow turns my world upside down; 
leaving me in a chaotic game,
as if the whole world is shouting her name.

Broken Love

Beautiful, but not perfect
Wonderful, yet hurting too
Loving, but with regret
Amazing, yet painful too

Conflicting feelings
Send me reeling
Love that’s sealing
But still stealing

Blemished Love

her piggie died my 
   love denied
she cried I
   cried 
alone by her
   side
honesty 
  decried
never should've 
   lied
perhaps death has
    died 
retry 
retry
retry re-
try.

Broken Love

Once beloved
is now forgotten.
Once cherished
is now despised.

Once a beauty 
is now marred.
Once loving 
is now hurtful

It is a tragedy,
started by lust,
morphed by lies,
ended by hate.

It's a broken love.

Breaking Habits

BREAKING HABITS

What I once believed was love forever
Time has peeled and dimmed that glow 
What we have here is addiction, Dear
A habit enjoyable and difficult to break 
But cigarettes are gone and now so are we

Drifted Dreams

The long-drawn-out throb of my core,
Mounting up my red lane,
It is so cold, my eyes are all sore
My atonements have been in bane,
One swell of solecism
Exonerating mine deeds unfeasible to deem,
My soul cries to death
My beautiful dreams drifted.

Broken

Apparently, I love the broken hearts.
broken love,
broken stories,
broken feelings,
And why wouldn't I?
Humans do tend to love what's akin to them.

Dogs-We Are Returning

we are leaving soon
through the heart of the 
river compassion
back home to the 
solace warmth of
the caring earth
pink room with 
purple light
golden flowers
hungry dogs of black
brown white and mixed
floating in the chained
expectation of
broken love
we are returning
soon believe

with each word I say to you
I feel myself being taken 
down by the undertow
below the boggy mire
as I struggled to say 
just the right thing
I find myself sinking
trapped knowing inevitably 
I'm helpless as each word
provides more of a struggle
into the quicksand 
of our broken love

Broken

The most I heard you say I love you
Was on the nights when all you could think about 
Was seeing what was concealed
Beneath my clothes 

I peeled the fabric from my legs, my breasts,
My hips 
Unwrapping the ivory flesh 
That no eyes but yours and mine 
Had seen 
Because that was when 
You loved me  most

Aimless

I am not blameless
I am not shameless
I can't tame this
Feeling that I'm wondering
Aimless
My name is:
Fat little ball of broken love-struck stress
I am nothing more then nothing less
Sniffing dust just so I can be blessed
I wonder if I died just who would miss me
And if he'd ever get up the nerve to kiss me

Premium Member Broken Blues

Joe Bonamassa plays the blues
He comforts my withering soul
The records spin on the vinyl player
And I crank the speakers to ease the pain
But will I ever have my broken love restored
Yes, I think my love has gone away for good

Broken

What are you to me?
A smiling memory,
A heartache in a jar,
A strong and mad elixir
I dared to drink

The taste is bitter now,
But I can still remember
How sweet it was
On your lips
And on mine

Sleeping seraph
Whose heart I held
Closer than you knew,

Was it in vain
What we exchanged—
A friendship for a broken love?

First Rose

You called my name, blossomed pink through a screen
Red face, heart race, bewitched I fell sick in bed
A rusting rose emerged from my slivered soul

Before I slept, I remembered the first time I wished we met

The laugh, that made my days glitch
I'm here again, wondering what happened there
There were times, I yearned to see you again.

Love Lost

A memory cannot always be enough,
but a goodbye wouldn't help.
To look into the deep pools on your face
once more would be a shatter to my heart.
How to move on is no simple question
somehow, carefully, time mends the wound.
But it can only glue the broken pieces not restore.
Broken love is real as I now choose
to still love what is no more.

A Tear Frozen On a Timeless Cheek

Life, lies, and deceit
A tear frozen on a timeless cheek

A past love, a past life
A new love, a tortured wife

A whirlwind of drinks and drugs
A push, a shove, a broken love

A rope, first flight, no life
A tear, time stops, no wife

The beginning, an end
The end, a beginning

Life, love, lies, and deceit
A tear frozen on a timeless cheek

How

How can I forget you,
your smile, your kind words?
How can I stop dreaming,
stop hoping and wishing?
Your voice, your eyes, your hands
always present, stirring memories,
each sweet thing said in my mind
like a broken love song.
Memories burning, scalding
and springing suddenly, violently.
So many rotting promises
and half lost wishes
and yet...
I can't let go.

Criminal Escape

Hair entangled in your hands 
Pulling and jerking my being 
The pleasure of pain 
A bittersweet romance 

The power over me 
Tearing and biting my skin 
A joy in my bloodshed 
The tormented kiss 

Your demands spat 
Sweeping and controlling my spirit 
The hope in fear 
My only escape 

Emotion in motion 
Shattering bones, stopping my heart 
A final act of violent passion 
The crime of broken love.

Broken Love

If life were but an ocean
That gently but surely returns debris back to shore
Perhaps it would have undone our mistakes
And I may yet again have another chance at your heart and love

Much more than beautiful poetry to tease and tantalize
I stand here broken and begging for love, yes for your love
Oh that Venus would arise and summon cupid
Just maybe then, my aching heart will yet know some balm...
