Short Too Good To Be True Poems

Dream,
Hopeful, Joyous.
Wishing, Obtaining, Denying.
A too good to be true reality,
Dream....

Too good to be true was he.
How did he vanish?
Was he dreamed?

"It's too good to be true" 
I think about that saying a lot 
But yes, if it seems true 
Then, let me tell you 
Most often it's probably not...

The Trump-Approved diet for men
Is three-times per day Uncle Ben
Too good to be true
They all think its new
(Add mice to the rice to keep thin!)...

You're too good to be true, 
I can barely believe, 
I never imagined someday, 
you'll be mine.
I have found love at last, 
too good to be true......

When I was declined by you
I said I was fine
But I wasn't at first
And it took a long time
But now I realized
It was me not you
That was too good to be true
For you...

If it sounds too good to be true
The low price is the clue
So what would you say
To a resort on Waikiki Bay
That costs you but two hours pay
  ~ Caveat emptor! -- Stay away!...

My heart flutters
I feel flushed
when you enter the room
Your touch sends my skin
a sensational message of want
Your kiss
sends my lips ablaze for more
when we are together it's magical
Love- not lust
It's too good to be true...

Maybe it was too good to be true 
I am sure they were all lies that I heard from you 
Crying over you has been a waste of time 
All I want from you now is the truth 
How you can treat someone the way you treated me really and truely blows my mind....

Am i a vision of you ?

Or is it too good to be true ?

Do you see what i see ?

Is your perception just cloudy for
you and not me ?

Am i seeing you through the eyes
of my mind ?

Can i be blind ?

Or will my vision of you
last through the test of time ?...

On the way to Columbus
Flying over the hills of PA
Sitting next to me is the cat's meow
I'm speechless, I've nothing to say
I can't believe this is happening 
It's just too good to be true
There's a concert tonight with a singer I love
And I'm going to see her with you...

you seem too good to be true
what are you hiding behind
that perfection?
what flaws exist underneath
what can be seen?
relationships seem to all start the same
with flirting and smiles and giggles
and that fluttering heartbeat
and sweaty palms
but do they all end the same...

I dream of fantasy,
But live in reality...
Sometimes fantasy is in reality
And I would hate it for the confusion and disbelief
Fantasy can be too good, to be true,
Too fast in motion,
And it is always memories we are left with
And like we just woke up from a dream
Dreamland!

In your eyes , I see a reflection of my pain 
You can't disguise,  your forced to refrain 
I see all I've never even dreamed,  unreachable goal
Your eyes show more than seems,  desire without control 

In your eyes,  i see something too good to be true 
Tell me no lies,  does mine speak to you....

i sit here looking at you
not sure of what to say
i want to make things right
but i know it'll never be okay

the pain you've caused
throughout the years
my eyes still hurt
from all the tears

did you mean it
when you said "i love you"
or was it just a dream
one thats too good to be true?...

true love, only for you, i am completely true 
your love i cannot deny, without you i would die
my life to you i owe, but i just cant let you go
you know i care for you, its almost too good to be true
take a deep breath, what a rush, just to brush with death
the rush ends, energy sends, now our love can begin...

That feeling I always wanted to feel.. I felt it with YOU
Love like you see in the movies... I had that.. with YOU
Love that we joked was just too good to be true.. 
yep I know I had that.. with YOU!

Fun, spontaneous, passionate, understanding,
sweet & ohh so sexy love...
I hope that I can have that again... with someone other than YOU....

You're just too good to be true,
I can't take my eyes off of you.

You'd be like heaven to touch,
I want to hold you so much.

It's at you that I stare,
There's nothing else to compare.

The sight of you leaves me weak,
I love the words that you speak.

If you feel like I feel,
Please, let me know that it's real.

Baby, my love is true,
Please, let me love you....

When i'm with you
my life is like a dream.
When you're gone,
i just don't live.
Looking into your eyes,
 i feel an unknown emotion.
Maybe this is a dream,
but i won't wake up
until we've defeated eternity.
This is too good to be true,
but fairy tales amuse me.
When i'm with you 
i can do anything.
But all i will ever want to do
is be your everything....

I thought about this word
Whispered in my ear
It sounds too good to be true
In all honesty
I Remember the Lord of the Rings
It was desired for the power
used by the wearer of that
Oh so precious ring
To bring fortunes 
Oh so selfishly
I've been burned by such a ring
with such a powerful desire
In my life
I better think twice
Before dancing in its fire...

ALL TALK

Politicos prattle
their prating rattle,
will such rantings ever cease ?
Smugly they sanctimone
as listeners,inward groan;
With theories,so unreal
hypothesising on how we feel;
Will such arrogance condescend
listen,or unbend-
or is it all just talk
sans hard yards of walk.

Trust me,it won't happen again !

re-post inspired by Lewis's contest...

Maybe I was the fool
foolish for loving you
you were so cruel 
you never gave me a clue
That I was merely only your tool
You were too good to be true
You were my fuel
it was too hard to see through 
but still you remained cruel
But I can't stop myself for falling for you
Maybe I was the fool
You were merely the gold
I guess you could say that together 
We were fools gold...

That day the sky was a special shade of blue.
And it did really seem too too good to be true. 
It reminded me of all the silver linings of life.
And did give me much relief from all my strife

I was gently reminded of my wonderful world.
And the flag of natural freedom was unfurled.
I rejected every negative like an unwanted toy.
And was left with a gentle mind steeped in joy....

Listen to poem:

no fairy tale love
no instant perfection
no such thing

nice and slow
built up one brick at a time
on a strong foundation

if love seems too good to be true
chances are it may be just illusion
once she starts seeing clear
the glass slipper shatters
including hopes and dreams
and without those
she’s left with less than nothing

unintelligible whispers ~ cause the weirdest reverberations

it sounds too good to be true ~ is a noisy misinterpretation

a chameleon in a flawed mirror ~ kissed it’s own aberration

the pot overheard the kettle whistle ~ a steamy admiration 

a little magnetism is good ~ too much will bring polarisation 

i put these monokus together ~ with mostly misinformation
