I Won't Settle For Anything Less Than You
- By Lorelei
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Falling in Love Poems

I want it all
The insanity
The good,
The bad,

I want it all
The insanity
The good,
The bad,
Your broken pieces too.
The sadness,
The laughter,
even the darkness in your light.
I want you wildly, madly in love
with all that I am, all that I have been
and everything I will become.
Give me your moon
and I’ll hang the stars
across the sky for you

because darling,
I won’t settle for anything less
than you.

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.

You Are All That I Want
- By Caroline White

in Sweet Love Poems

Give me you
tired and tattered
restless and weary
a heart that’s been shattered

Give me you
tired and tattered
restless and weary
a heart that’s been shattered
Give me you
when you are less than tough
when you are not smiling
all your edges so rough
Give me you
when you can’t see the light
just open your heart
I will hold it so tight

Give me you.

You
are all
that I want

I Will Want To Grow Old With You
- By Gemma Troy
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2021 with permission of the Author.
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

A New Beginning

in Poems about Life Struggles

sometimes I wonder
why life feels
so uphill most of the time.
but maybe

sometimes I wonder
why life feels
so uphill most of the time.
but maybe
the mountains are rooting for us.
maybe they want us to see sights
we would never get to see without them.
because in that moment,
when life takes your breath away
for all her beauty, you are reborn.
and I don’t think there is anything
more perfect
in this world than a new beginning.

You Are Enough
- By Bethny Ricks
- Published by Family Friend Poems March 2021 with permission of the Author.
Along the way I have learned a tough lesson: even in my imperfection I am still worthy of love, someone’s time, and a consistent feeling of wholeness.
My value is not connected to perfection, strength, or my ability to weather a storm. Which means that even on those days when I struggle to show up or feel ill-equipped, I am still a woman of worth and value

in Inspirational Poems

You are enough
You have always been enough, and
You will forever be
Enough

You are enough
You have always been enough, and
You will forever be
Enough

no matter what you see
how you feel, or the lies you may
believe

Final Moments
- By Amy O Connor
- Published by Family Friend Poems January 2021 with permission of the Author.
Have you ever had a final moment with someone that you wish you could change?

in Breaking Up Poems

It wrecks me, that last moment
that played out so wrong.
Our hopeless eyes locked
just a few seconds too long.

It wrecks me, that last moment
that played out so wrong.
Our hopeless eyes locked
just a few seconds too long.

And my eyes begged yours
to ask me to stay.
And your eyes welled up
as you walked away.

Short but powerful. My favorite kind. This poem shows what can happen when two people who can't be together (for whatever reason) don't want to be apart.

Let Them Miss You
- By Lauren Bowman
- Published by Family Friend Poems September 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Moving On Poems

Let them miss you.
Let them wonder what wild joy you’re chasing,
why you didn’t think to invite them along.
Let them hear your laughter from afar,

Let them miss you.
Let them wonder what wild joy you’re chasing,
why you didn’t think to invite them along.
Let them hear your laughter from afar,
watch as it pulls the sun from the sky,
marvel at how easily you become that light.
Let them yearn to be your moon,
long for a chance to reflect the warmth you provide,
admire how you can be so vibrant and alive
without them beside you.

Let them miss you.
Let yourself learn how okay you are
on your own.

Bright Light

I see you, darling.
Holding on to your hope with both hands.
Feeling exhausted with all the turbulence.
But not letting go.

I see you, darling.
Holding on to your hope with both hands.
Feeling exhausted with all the turbulence.
But not letting go.
Shedding and bending
and growing and trying. So much trying.
And you are right,
your old life is a bad fit for you now.
There is more for you out there.
There is more for you inside too.
Keep holding on to your hope.
The world needs more of that right now.

I Am A Survivor
- By Caroline White
- Published by Family Friend Poems June 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Inspirational Poems

I am not everything
that has happened to me.
I am everything I became
while I healed.

I am not everything
that has happened to me.
I am everything I became
while I healed.
Stronger but softer.
Focused but not obsessed.
A teacher but still a student.
I am not broken.
I am beautiful.
I am a survivor.

This Is My Strength
- By Lauren Bowman

in Moving On Poems

When you left,
I immediately deleted your number and pictures
and pulled our memories from the wall.
This is my strength.

When you left,
I immediately deleted your number and pictures
and pulled our memories from the wall.
This is my strength.
This is how I know I’ll survive.
I cried as I erased you,
but I erased you anyway.
I wished you back,
but I still opened my hands
and let you go.

She Is Magic
- By Caroline White
- Published by Family Friend Poems October 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Courage Poems

She wildly dances
to the beat of her own heart
a strong and fearless protector,
she’s hauntingly beautiful

She wildly dances
to the beat of her own heart
a strong and fearless protector,
she’s hauntingly beautiful
and dangerously smart.
Eyes filled with oceans
and a glimmer of pain,
but a soul with a compass
that points home
when it rains.
She’s visited darkness
and fought her way back
this girl is a warrior,
her spirit won’t crack.
A sense of humor to balance
how deep her heart bleeds,
she’s a radiant light,
that this dark world needs.
She is poised and she’s polished
but still can be rough,
she is one of a kind,
she is more than enough.

in Hope Poems

It’s okay
it’s okay
no matter what
comes your way

It’s okay
it’s okay
no matter what
comes your way
even when you
have no words to say
and your bluebird skies
turn shades of grey

You are here
you are breathing
there is something
to believe in

Please don’t lose faith
all will be okay

Learning To Let Go
- By Liz Newman
- Published by Family Friend Poems December 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Change Poems

Letting go doesn’t
always look how you think it will.
Sometimes it happens all at once.
Sometimes it’s in phases.

Letting go doesn’t
always look how you think it will.
Sometimes it happens all at once.
Sometimes it’s in phases.
Oftentimes it requires a few tries
and heartfelt goodbyes.
Even when it’s good for you,
letting go is hard on a heart.
But like the changing seasons,
we will learn to change too.
In time, in time,
In time…

Finding hope amidst adversity

Poem Of Hope: Finding Light In The Dark Moments

in Hope Poems

Hope can be found in the moment
when the sun breaks open the day
it can be felt when the stars shine
in the darkest part of the night

Hope can be found in the moment
when the sun breaks open the day
it can be felt when the stars shine
in the darkest part of the night
and when a flower has grown without rain
hope is the thread
that ties the words together
when I write poetry
hope is the reason
you’ve survived
it lives between each heart beat
and it’s in the air you breathe

He asked me if
I missed him

my heart called
me a liar,
I could not give

any more of me.
Not my feelings,
my memories,
or my regrets.

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.
