To have loved and lost
are a heaven and a hell;
and the place between
is their own purgatory,
a limbo of sorting out....

Tinkering With Tennyson
Alfred, Lord Tennyson,
When all was certainly said and done,
Wrote “Better to have loved and lost…,”
Perhaps that was the bar he crossed.

To have tread the fairest acres
At the height of skyscraper

that compose the minutes

I am a poet
Turning the ones i’ve loved and lost into poetry
Hoping i will come to understand
What was and what is
Hoping to heal the hurt I have sitting inside me
Clawing at my very heart...

Life Memories
we have loved deeply
in tears we cling – death . . . here
love memories now
For those who have loved and lost – we will never forget!

Moving On
The slow soft solitary waltz has begun
Thoughts of unfulfilled dreams and goals
Thoughts of love and lovers loved and lost
Thoughts of smiles created and eyes elated
Thoughts of fear fading, consciousness abating
Kinetic stardust to history’s whispers
Eyes closing, going home...

A Fool In Love
I staggered blindly to her arms,
Forgot the hurtful past,
And told myself it’s perfect now:
This time it’s sure to last.
It happened time and time again,
I’d loved and lost and cried,
A fool in love: a sacrifice.
My loving, trusting heart had died.
* How I felt a long time ago

Loved and Lost
I can hear your laughter
While he listens at
One of his friend's corny jokes
I can see his smile
While he gazes at his wife
With pure love
A worldly man he was
While he gives advice to
His kids about the do's and don'ts
Suddenly, something snatches
His life away, leaving a trail
Of hurt and pain...

Passing Through
Passing Through
This world is not my home
I'm just passing through
I have loved and lost
But that won't make me blue
For there is much
To do and see
Far beyond you and me
From the leaves on the trees
To the deep blue sea
An ocean of love
Is surrounding me
And when I leave
I'll take with me
Fond memories of
Gods love for me...

Love and Loss
©January, 2014
They say it is better
To have loved and lost,
Than to have never loved
And have emotions tossed.
To see a loved one
Go carelessly astray,
Is difficult to do more
Than to diligently pray.
To hope that someday
Their return you’ll see,
Is a constant prayer
That you earnestly plea....

Love Is Vain
Some will say, that I must be vain
To express in poems, such heartfelt pain
Of loves gone wrong, and broken hearts
Yet these words, so sad and blue
In each of us, we know are true
For all of us have loved and lost
And asked ourselves, is it worth the cost
To find true love and risk that pain
If I say yes, does that make me vain?...

Sorry, Lord Tennyson
From Alfred Lord Tennyson's poem In Memoriam:27, 1850:
I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.
From Eileen M Ghali's Monoku in Poetry Soup: August 6, 2014
It's better NOT to have loved and lost than always to remember a paradise gone....

A Melody of Love and Pain
A voice so hypnotically haunting
I'm sitting all alone
as you sing of love and pain
makes me feel right at home
For I have loved and lost
with your words I can relate
I played a foolish game
until it was to late
So here I sit and listen
to your melody and reminisce
a voice so hypnotically haunting
reminding me of the love I truly miss...

To End It Now
Cracked and split
broken and torn
loved and lost
my life is worn
what else can happen
to one in time
will it end
this life of mine?
Battered and bruised
secrets and lies
I have one wish
I want to fly
to go away
and be no more
to take the pain
away for sure
There is one way
that I know how
to end the hurt
to end it now....

Loved and Lost
How I recall empathic tastes
Of winter frost,
And the bite of winds that railed against
The trees,
Dispersed with such unease
The deafening cries of those
Who loved and lost.
Mimicking in their jackboot stance
Upon the shore,
In the veil of mist, a carpet rolling in
The dawn,
The kettle whistle so forlorn,
The silenced tongues of those
Who loved no more....

Verse
No Title, Yet - 67
I’ve traveled the world, yet feel I’ve gone nowhere.
My life seems to be one blur after another.
I’ve loved and lost and loved again with such care.
Yet, I’ve never become a wife or a mother.
I long for the touch of a newborn, baby boy,
A son with whom I can share a wonderful life;
A child whom I can raise with kindness and joy,
With his father by my side and me as his wife....

Pebbles
Time slips by
like pebbles
flowing gently
downstream
slipping silently on
before vanishing forever
into the eternal landscape
where the faces of those
we have loved and lost
blend like stars
in the seamless expanse
we call 'yesterday'.
For a moment I knew you
we were drops in an ocean
you have slipped from my grasp
and the pebbles
in the trickling stream of life
flow on....

Night Confusion
NIGHT CONFUSION
Empty confusing heart
aching arms
bruised
elated
limbs feel loved and lost
Were you here last night?
Did you love me?
Did I love you?
Wicked
Wicked
Dream.
Wicked
Wicked
Heart
Did I dream this?
Did I read this?
Was it in a film?
Can’t remember
love makes facts a blur
Isn’t it peculiar
Life will never change
All heads play tricks
And my crazy head plays more

A She
The hurt is real
the pain complete.
The mental angst so true
just words they say
but my tears still fell
my heart it wept because of you.
Yet you turned and just walked away.
Everyone as loved and lost
not me you where the one
you took my heart then left
no call no text no backwards glance
just another heart for you to gather
so cruel to be played for a fool
by someone you once loved....

There Are Those
There are many who have loved and won
Oh, there are those who have loved and lost
Songs abound , win or lose, for each one
Love is the thing - it is not the cost
But no one writes songs for those like me
Not yet a lover, not yet pending
But I am a poet - I am free
Pen to hand I write my own ending
