I Hate That I Miss You

I hate that I miss you,
Letting you go is not easy,
Even though you're nowhere around,
Makes me miss you more deeply.
I tried my hardest to make you happy,
But you still got up to leave me,
I guess when you said I love you,
I said I love you to, but you didn't believe me,
I let my daughter come around you,
Luckily she didn't get attach,
Would of hurt me more,
To tell her we didn't match,
You even lied about being pregnant,
Just to keep me in your trap,
You cooked me your own recipe,
A plate of bull crap,
Fed it to me as I thought it was tasteful,
Added your own spices and seasonings,
Just absolutely hateful,
How could you do such a thing?,
You could of left me starving,
I can't believe I said those words,
Had me thinking you was sweet and charming,
I can't sleep because of you,
Eyes full of tears showering on my shirt,
You took my heart and ripped it,
Buried it deeply in the dirt,
I've been digging for years,
Hoping I can find it,
But no luck in my position,
Just makes me want to quit,
I hope you are happy on what you've done,
Since you decided to get up and move,
I hate myself for the fact that,
I hate that I miss you,

Dear Sweetheart

We never got the chance to meet,
Nor the chance to speak,
Everyone seem to appreciate you,
So I wanted myself to take a peak,
The way your words connect,
Has me stung by your poison of passion,
A sweet taste of love,
I can't seem to keep myself relaxed when,
I read your sequence of love,
You have a golden gift,
That melts pots,
And heal hearts,
I see why you call yourself Sweetheart,
You were a bundle of joy,
You took love and added your own sweetness,
WOW! A bottle of wisdom,
As I drink every drop of it,
Getting this special chill in spine,
Suddenly I get a warm feeling,
A loving glow,


I want to thank you for your love poetry. You taught me how to love poems even 
more and to be as creative and passionate as you were. God bless you and your family. 
Keep looking down on us as we make you proud of us.

Love,
Your new PoetrySoup family member

So Long

Alone without you around,
Why can't you just stay here with me,
I know its best that we separate,
But I can't handle this feeling of being free,
You've help through tough times,
Times where I felt stressed,
Relaxed me when I needed you,
Especially the times I was a mess,
Calmed me down,
From when I was angry and pissed,
I HATE YOU!
Why does it have to end like this?,
I miss your scent,
I loved the way you smelled,
Nobody knew what was on my mind,
But only, ONLY you were the one that can tell,
I miss holding you,
Inhaling you,
Feeling you inside me,
Can I have just one more time?,
I need you!
Please don't leave me,
I don't want you to go,
I'm sorry,
Will you come back?,
No! No! No!
I don't want you,
I can't have you,
You keeping hurting me,
Giving you too many chances,
This time I have to leave,
Because if I don't do it now,
Then you will only stop me from trying to achieve,
You kept in the dark,
While my girls played in the light,
I lost time dealing with you,
When I could of done something else with my life,
Today I end this with a goodbye,
I hope we never meet again,
I'm taking my life back,
And ending us as friends,
No more smelling like you,
No more losing my breath,
I am finally free,
Until that day comes upon my death,

Mixed Emotions

Without you I can't get to where I need to go,

Everything is fast for others

But to me it's slow,

Money needs to be made,

Bills need to be paid,

Focus on your daughter's education for her to get better grades,

Get along with the mother for your daughter's sake,

But how can you feel that if you and her can't relate,

The same information on the same plate,

Kinda makes you wonder why you started talking in the first place,

You've accepted yourself and moved on with life,

But how can you continue the path with her if she still upset about a mistake,

An accident happen kept me leaning backwards instead of forwards,

Goals pushed to the side instead of following towards,

That lifetime achievement awards,

You see the more you hold back,

The more time for another to take your shine,

I been running away from myself,

Instead taking what's mine,

Each day and night I predict life is fine,

Not knowing that I'm killing myself inside,

Instead of squeezing my life of rhymes,

My mind is in a maze,

My heart is weak,

And my voice isn't brave,

Brave enough to flow water from my tongue,

When I'm creating waves,

I'm stuck like glue,

Unable to move,

So all I see is the same picture,

The pain is eating me alive,

To where I lean towards that bottle of liquor,

Or that bag of weed,

Cause maybe the smoke will clear the pain and heal my wounds,

Only to know the pain is not completely gone it will be back soon,

But it felt good for 3 hours being on top of the moon,

If my life is like this,

Then I need to switch my plans up,

Take care of my responsibilities and man up,

Delete the negative around me,

For a positive feeling when I stand up,

Life is too short to give it away,

And take a chance,

So climb on to the world and begin to dance,

You only got one so take it,

And die with love in your heart,

Beginning Poet

Although I define myself a poet,
I tend to write like a high school student,
When I first started writing poems,
I never knew anything about the forms,
So any poem that I wrote,
Always had a plain feeling towards them,
I went through a heartbreak,
That did the most damage to me,
Which made me lose my love to writing,
I was lost inside a box of scrambling words,
But could never connect them into lines,
Years of recovery from this pain,
I finally found the strength,
To pick up the pen and write what I first started to love,
What is a sonnet, a haiku, a ballad,
This is all new to me,
But very interesting to know,
As I learn and teach myself how to write,
I write on here not to just show my poems,
But to meet poets that are willing enough to give great advice,
On how to become a better poet,
Honesty is what I look for,
Not just a that's a good poem,
If you don't like nor understand what my poems,
Please feel free to speak your mind,
I love your honest opinions,
Now with that being said from this non poem,
I can't wait to meet you all,
Learn from you all,
Watch me grow,
And love my poems just as much I will love yours.

Thank you all! Much appreciated.....

Could This Be

Could this be?,
The start of a great journey,
The end of no longer searching,

Could this be?,
Where I find out how love feels,
And the tiredness of pain stops hurting,

Could this be?,
I can finally have a reason to smile,
Know the feeling of being happy,

Could this be?,
How we don't meet for days,
And it kills because I miss you badly,

Because if it is,
I don't want this to stop,
I'll do anything to make this fresh,
While people wants us to rot,
When I see you,
I want to hold you tight,
Kiss you softly,
Until we see the light,
Write my love on paper,
As my words connects to your mind,
To the day I ask for your hand,
And you walk down that line,
Where no one else can have you,
You will be all mine,

Could this be?,
Something that's not a dream,
I really am flying on clouds,

Could this be?,
Where I can give you my all,
No other love can be found,

Could this be?,
The start of a great journey,
The end of no longer searching,

Could this be?,
A blessing from God,
If so this is well deserving,
