Poem About Finding True Love And Connection

in Relationship Poems

I don’t want attachment.
I want love.

I don’t want you to be

I don’t want attachment.
I want love.

I don’t want you to be
with me because it hurts
you to not be with me.

I want you to be with me
because being with me
makes you feel the most
alive you’ve ever felt.

Finding Hope In Unexpected Places

in Short Poems

I am learning to find hope
in the smallest and most unexpected places
like the whispers through the forest
and the velvet evening sky

I am learning to find hope
in the smallest and most unexpected places
like the whispers through the forest
and the velvet evening sky
and the way your love is bringing back
all the parts of my soul I thought I had lost.

This poem speaks to me. I really like it. We spend so much of our time focusing on things that really don't make life better and we miss out on many of the things that do.

What I Would Have Done Differently

- Published by Family Friend Poems March 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Life Lesson Poems

There would have been
so much I would have
done differently
if only I had known

There would have been
so much I would have
done differently
if only I had known
how beautifully
it would all turn out.

But, you see, if I had
done even just one
thing differently,
it might not have
turned out the way it did.

First off, I like the poem. I too have pondered that same notion about going back in time and changing things for a better outcome. It's hard to say either way. Things could have been better...

When You Cross My Mind
- By Lauren Bowman
- Published by Family Friend Poems May 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Moving On Poems

When you cross my mind,
my stomach no longer crisscrosses itself.

When that song comes on,

When you cross my mind,
my stomach no longer crisscrosses itself.

When that song comes on,
my heart no longer beats to its rhythm.

When I walk down our street,
my hands no longer feel empty without yours in them.

But you’re always on my mind,
and I play that song on repeat,
and my feet always seem to take me straight
to that street.

you don’t get away

Take A Bow
- By S.C. Lourie
- Published by Family Friend Poems June 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Inspirational Poems

Take a bow, lovely one.
Because you’re tired
And still you’re doing it.
You’re feeling empty

Take a bow, lovely one.
Because you’re tired
And still you’re doing it.
You’re feeling empty
And still you’re giving it.
You’re unsure of yourself
And still you’re being it.
You got hit hard
And still you’re healing it.
Funds are low
And still you’re dreaming it.
Life ain’t so easy right now
And still you’re loving it.
The winds are blowing hard
And still you’re walking it.
Yes, take a bow, lovely one.
(You made it to Friday)

The Healing Power Of Mother Nature
- By Shelby Ensign
- Published by Family Friend Poems September 2020 with permission of the Author.
The weight of life is much too heavy for us all at times. I’ve found nature to be one of the best healers for anxiety.

in Short Poems

maybe the answer is simple,
and all along
there's been relief--
if the strands of your soul

maybe the answer is simple,
and all along
there's been relief--
if the strands of your soul
feel frayed and withered,
sit within the arms
of Mother Nature
and her quiet love
will mend them

Letting Go
- By S.C. Lourie
- Published by Family Friend Poems December 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Change Poems

She was scared to let go.
She was worried that everything might fall apart.
But she felt this heaviness, every day, growing in her heart.
So she took a deep breath.

She was scared to let go.
She was worried that everything might fall apart.
But she felt this heaviness, every day, growing in her heart.
So she took a deep breath.
She opened her hands and let it all go.
And what’s when she saw beauty above her brow,
telling her it was now *her* time to grow.
Releasing her fears, she realised what it felt like to be free.
It felt amazing, she felt like the joyous girl
she once used to be.
The chains in her mind had lied to her, saying that they
were present to hold everything in place.
But now her wings held everything together.
It was time to fold her fears away.

I Will Want To Grow Old With You
- By Gemma Troy

in Sweet Love Poems

You can take me on a holiday
but I prefer to sit at home
you can buy me chocolate and roses
but I just want your hand to hold

You can take me on a holiday
but I prefer to sit at home
you can buy me chocolate and roses
but I just want your hand to hold
you can dine me all night long
but I would rather lie under the stars
while we listen to our favourite song
you can give me jewels and gold
but if you find me a feather
with you
I will want to grow old

You Have Shattered Every Memory Of Us
- By Jordan Byrnehouser
- Published by Family Friend Poems January 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Hurting Poems

You have drowned every emotion of us,
Held it under water until it could no longer breathe.
You have shattered every memory of us,
Like glass, touching it I risk hurting every time.

You have drowned every emotion of us,
Held it under water until it could no longer breathe.
You have shattered every memory of us,
Like glass, touching it I risk hurting every time.
You have burned any future of us,
Only left ashes of what could have been.
We could have been great together.
We could have made it.

You're Not Alone In This
- By Lauren Bowman
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Poems about Life Struggles

You’re not alone in this; you know that, right?
There are others like you.
Hiding. Running. Wishing
for a desire they keep hidden

You’re not alone in this; you know that, right?
There are others like you.
Hiding. Running. Wishing
for a desire they keep hidden
(but terrified of it coming true)
Swaying. Hoping. Begging
for change.
(but terrified of something new)
Hesitant but leaping.
Whole but looking for what they’ve lost.
Wanting the world to see them
but unsure of who they are.
