Short Love Pain Sad Poems

I want to cry,
But I don't know the reason why,
Am I in love or is it a lie?...

what does your heart say?
can you hear it?
feel it?
when you push it aside do you feel regret?
longing?
or do you feel nothing?...

Read More

There is no doubt that 
you have the endless power
to destroy me. The 
real question is, whether you 
intend to do it or not....

A year since you left,
The fireplace of this home
Now empty and cold;
Your steps still echo inside,
Will this pain ever subside?...

Read More

A melancholy melody plays in my head,
And my heart’s sinking in despair,
My eyes are sad and red,
Down my face,
Trickles down a single tear....

Good morrow anger! Found am I not less
Angered more so; Pray thee hinder not more.
Kindred stolen of murder; Most senseless!
O murderer, locked are frigid doors; Naught honor....

Your memories 

Turned into heaps-

Heaps of sadness, 

Surges of darkness.



The wild cry of griffin

Rushed around

The black cliff of

My heart's voyage

In sea, storm and ice....

Love without hope

Promises of love without sincere intention
showered with presents of unique distinction
Dramatic displays of superficial attention
Love without hope drives with no destination.

For love without hope contest....

Still you did not halt, 

There at the gate

Of the hall of ruins.



The anger and evil

In your looks were

Spread over 

Vast acres of dark legends



Under the hectic skies

Raining jungles of sad bubbles 

And lakes of saline hopes

And sweet despair....

The light dims down
The heart beats slower
All that was, is gone
Salty water slides down the side of my cheeks
Wiping them away as if wiping the past away
Unfathomable emotions strikes at my heart
Feelings of loss that was once love
Grasping at memories 
Only to feel the pain is real...

Wish I could redo the past.
And somehow make you and I last!
But the past is the past!
I’m stuck with the memory.
Convincing myself you never cared about me.
Telling myself everything was a lie.
We are now nothing more than goodbye!
I refuse to be stuck in time.
There is no you and I!...

My heart bleeds
Standing over myself
My heart bleeds
Red pools below 
Like a finger painting gone wrong
Blood everywhere 

Pictures lay out 
Smiling couple sprawled out on the floor
Silent from below
I’m not moving 
I’m alone now in this void 

It’s not suicide from a broken heart...

Read More

In webs of worry, and in needless hurry
I exhume a wound twice times buried
Deep within my sorrowful Heart
Two Lovers joined, then torn apart
Will we love again, will we love once more?
Or ache again lost Lovers' sores?
Oh, that burning pain I cannot endure-
I would not survive, of this I am sure...

Read More

A touch, a dance,
a smile, a joke. 
I’ll take any kind of human connection. 

A grope, a sordid hand fishing for pink,
come home with me. 
A mouth bent into a snarl, a hastily thrown obscenity. 

I’d be so grateful. 
Just give me something to talk about,
think about
that isn’t him....

Hard and rigid
The life so lived and so painful
Lived to be smart, your own way and left this world wanting more
Hard and broken, rigid and angry 

Soft and beautiful
The life so lived and a beautiful soul
Lived to be free, enjoy all things and left the world way too soon
Soft and loved, beautiful memories...

What happened to love at first sight?
When we all looked in to each other's eyes with love...
Where did all the love go?
With hearts and fireworks...
What has taken its place?
Lust...
Is love now lust?
Looking in to the eyes for lust...
How do we live?
With lust...
Why is there no regret?
Lust is all that is left......

Peering through the eyes
that once sparkled;
now weeping with sorrow
turning to ice.

With each teardrop
flowing within;
becoming emotionally numb
I slowly die.

Emotions drained
forever lost;
I exist no more
inside I am dead.

I glance at you
through new eyes;
and see the truth
that cannot be denied....

How I miss the way we kissed-
Our lips were locked and laced with bliss
So why did our Love end like this?
Never to be the way we had wished...

Of sorrowed Hearts, to lament and mourn,
Borrowed Hopes in Truth to burn
The Rose of Love is thick with thorns:
So when I'm pricked, so then I've learned

*Every Rose has It's Thorn Contest...

Lonely yet you never alone
Unhappy yet you always smiling
They don’t know you yet they say they do
Drowning in a sea of perception and lies
Accost by irrational characters
Judged and rejected prior to hello
Identity, reason, hope and purpose all lost
Life lived thus far, a life full of regret
A life lived for others
A life not lived...

Separated by the giant gap of the hallway
As we evade one another during school.
Though in reality, destiny keeps us aloof
Trying to shelter us from a shattered soul.

This depriving distance is just a result of
Knowing I could never have you apart of my life.
Though fate tries to keep us safe and alone, 
You are forever on my mind, driving me crazy....

If we forget what is true 
I will stumble to be with you
Who I thought would be my one
Left me stranded, confused and undone 
Losing you led to persistent grief 
My mind is darkened due to a core belief
The betrayal has distorted my life
I refuse to handle your bloody, dull knife
Look in my eyes, did I even matter?
My heart looks broken on your platter...

Struggling with sorrow
Time she had to borrow
Her mind filled with pity
Her position wasn’t pretty
She had the name of Paulette
God knows she couldn’t forget
How he’d kissed away her pain
Left her without cloud or rain
Then someone new he’d met
And she was left here to fret

I want to make you part
Of my world reveal things
To you no one knows
Tell you how I can’t wait
See your radiant face
that fills this place
as I escape into ecstasy 
oh, how I long to be free
to escape this fear that
is hindering me
a wall of imprisonment  
the feeling of a love I never knew
What a horrible way to exist 
living a life of emptiness...

Silence rings its inaudible bell
Stillness stirs its invisible well
Your silence to my earnest plea
Is stillness in my misery

Would your silence to my plea persist?
Would you my burning questions resist?
Your silence to all my questions
Is burning me with misery

Let answers ring their audible bell
Let actions stir their visible well
Your answer to my earnest plea
Will put an end to misery...

Love filled nights and petty fights 
How could she be so blind, to be left behind 
Will you understand ... the pain

He left her without saying goodbye
If she could only turn back time
Will you understand ... the numbness

She's the broken wings of a dove
No reason left to fight anymore
Will you understand ... her loneliness
