The One Poems - Poems about The One

For the one who stays
She wakes before the sun, packs two lunches—one for school, one for work, if she remembers to eat. She brushes her child’s hair while tying back her own pain. She looks in the mirror and sees a woman who stayed too long for someone who only knew how to disappear. He said forever, then broke it quietly. Took the best of her years and left her with bills, baggage, and...

TO THE ONE WHO IS
You have neither season nor outline, Yet you dwell in every beat of my heart, crushed By disappointment and solitude, As though the day leaned over my hours of penance To gather the source of my being. Your presence never imposes—it seeps in, Fluid, tender, elusive, And I am held captive by a smile that promises nothing Yet offers everything. It is enough that...

the one who might
she has been looking for someone, since before she knew the word for wanting, “please, have you seen this person?” someone who’s tall and strong when she scratched her knees falling down the monkey bars —he can catch her when she falls, and lift her like she's air someone who's kind and has a puppy when she first held a fluffy life...

Death is The One Thing No Human Has The Answer For
One day as I laid in the ER bed. Thoughts of dying ran thru my head. This time I thought, I might not pull thru. Lord I'm not sure how, but I must trust You. I surrendered my fear to Him and just let go. I was trying to predict an end that I didn't know. Suddenly two people came my...

The One I Want To Become
If you asked me at age six, I might've told you I want to become a doctor, a scientist or even a hero that saves the planet. But now I feel so ancient, like I’ve lived a hundred years in quiet rooms where no one noticed the girl holding the walls up. I’ve carried generations in my chest my mother’s sorrow, my friends’ storms, strangers' cries...

Premium Member The one she hated was herself
She had a heart As cold as ice She had battles with everyone That came into her life She would say a nice word Every now and then But afterwards she Would be ripping of your head Hard to please Hard to talk to She didn't have friends Enemies quite a few We often thought If she hated us By the way she went If we made a...

You are the one
You are a responsible and a true-hearted person, You are the one who can always rely upon. You always know what to say, Talking to you makes one's day. Yes, you are the one. ...

Return her to me
I lost my world When I stared into her **Eyes** Like prisms that disperse the sunlight like heaven, makes you believe in god the longer you look at her so beautiful, a girl an angel I lost my sanity When I stared into her **Eyes** I felt like a million glasses Piercing through my flesh when I heared her cry She still lives with me, ever...

I know what is best for me Artsy and creative I am, you see My imagination is always on fire Trixie, my muse has a duty to inspire Hold your ideas; they are yours alone Enthusiasm helps me with my poem Offensive it is to be told what to do Never boss me, or we will be through Everyone else can keep their...

Premium Member I wait for the one who might return someday
I wait for the one who might return someday, but this "might" deceives me a little more each day, like a distant song slowly fading in the autumn dusk, an echo of lost footsteps on the forgotten paths of time. How long could patience last? Now I feel that I’ve grown tired of feeding myself with these hollow promises, like shadows...

Premium Member The One Foot After the Other Man
Everything's broken down again. The sky is filled with rain. The blood not flowing down the drain is bound to leave a stain. Where is hope to be found when it has just been drowned? He is the guy who can - the one foot after the other man....

I am still the one
I am still the one Who prays for you First thing in the mornings And in my prayer I ask you To get rid of my winter blues I am still the one That woke up tired today Yes today we are having a blizzard I am not going anywhere today I am going now to my living room I will turn my computer on And...
