21. I Want You Back
Sitting by the river,
Dreaming through my reflection,
I wonder what has happened.
What has caused this distance?
We used to be together,
Cuddling close to each other.
What came between our beautiful love?
I don't know, though I wish to.
I can see you now, not alone
You're holding a hand that's not mine
Where am I? Why not next to you?
Why am I away? I don't understand.
You're smiling to the fullest.
I am not the one making you happy.
You are glancing at someone else.
Why is it not me?
Seeing you after such a long time,
My heart sighs again.
Something inside me growls loud
'Cause now your hand runs through her hair.
I stand some distance well away,
But the surroundings disappear.
When I look at you, I feel lost inside
I wish you back, my angel.
There you are, holding her hand,
And I am lost, trying to understand.
I want you back, I really do,
Just to hold your hand
And walk with you.
Latest Shared StoryI'm going through a situation right now. I'm losing someone I love just because of the mistakes I did. Apparently, she tells me she just wants to be single and wants time, but I know of some...

22. My Rose No Longer
In my rose garden
There's a special rose.
The petals are smooth as satin,
and remind me of the good times.
The thorns poke at my fingers,
and remind me of the bad times.
The smell was so sweet-
Like the one who left me.
As I am reminded,
I shed a tear,
Then as more tears shed,
I can no longer see my special rose.Latest Shared StoryLove this poem. It speaks a thousand words to how I feel when my ex boyfriend broke my heart and left me feeling lonely as well.

23. My Love
You're Stuck In My HeartStuck in my heart you'll forever be.
Breaking, wishing for you to leave,
But yet longing for your return.
Spinning around and around,
Trying to see that you are fine,
Hoping, praying for your return
Into my arms
Where you will forever be. -
24. The Cycle
Poem About Hating Someone You Used To LoveWhy do we feel such strong emotion,
Of complete care and pure devotion.
It seems to bring, just pain and fear,
Along with shame and then the tears.
Though at first, it sure feels great,
As if, almost, it were in fate.
With a smile, we first feel love,
And then we thank Great God above.
Making it last for a while,
Thinking he or she is in denial.
Keeping secrets from each other,
Living lies with one another.
Beating ourselves with jealousy,
Wondering who it is they see,
The warmth that we had felt before,
Begins to fly, right out the door.
Distance then grows the two apart,
Knowing they are not right at heart,
The cycle that they had began,
Finally came unto its end.Latest Shared StoryWe may not be in love,
Though we may not be friends.
But in my world of dreams,
This is not the end.
Let the ages pass by,
Let the faces change.
But for you, my friend,
My love will... -
25. If Only
Unspoken Words That Should Have Been Said To An ExIf only I could turn back time and relive my days with you,
I'd hold on tight with all my might when I found my way to you.
If only you knew how I felt lost when I knew what I left behind,
you'd understand why I felt the need to turn back the hands of time.
If only you knew that letting you go was my single greatest regret.
And if only you knew that I was hurting too and it's a feeling I can't forget.
If only you knew I thought of you as the only one to hold and kiss,
and you need to know before I go, you're someone I truly miss.
If only you knew that when I met you, you brought color to my day.
And you need to know before I go, before you, I only saw gray.
If only you knew when I needed you, you were always there to listen.
And if only you knew that when you left, a part of me went missing.
If only you knew, time spent with you was the best part of my day.
And if only you knew because of you, I am the person I am today.
If only you knew when I was with you, I had no worries or cares.
And you need to know after I let you go, I kept you in my prayers.
You need to know before I go you didn't do anything wrong,
and you need to know before I go your love only made me strong.
If only you knew that when I was with you, I never felt sad or alone,
and if only you knew that my love for you was the best I've ever known.
If only you knew when I was with you, you never let me down.
and if only you knew how my love grew every day you came around.
I need you to know before I go that my love wasn't make believe,
nor was it a dream, or infatuation, or even a fantasy.
You need to know before I go, you were the best time of my life.
And you need to know instead of letting you go, I wanted to be your wife.
If only you knew when I was with you, we came so close to forever.
And if only you knew time spent with you is something I'll always treasure.
If only you knew that I wanted to move up time to see the future
and see if we had found each other and if our love was truer.
You need to know that I loved you so, and you gave me so much pleasure,
and you need to know I don't want to let go but stay in this moment forever.
If only.... -
26. Lost Love
Remembering My First LoveDo you remember me like I remember you
and wonder how our lives might be if we had said “I do”?
If I could hear those three little words that made my life complete,
my heart would know what my ears had heard and probably skip a beat.
Ours was a love story to remember
from the cold dark winters to warm summer weather.
Because of you, memories still linger
of the promise ring you placed on my finger.
You needed to find your place in this world,
even if it meant with some other girl.
I knew I had to let you go
even though I loved you so.
Remember our last sad goodbye?
Our hearts were broken. Tears burned our eyes...
So the hardest thing I’ve ever done was to accept we had to part.
But I hope you will remember you’ll always have my heart.
And so we kissed and we embraced,
and then I memorized your face.
You walked away to catch your flight
but not before we held on tight.
We both moved on and found new lovers.
I married one. You live with another.
Life is not always what is meant to be,
but I will hope, and dream, and always believe.
Imagining you lying next to me
is only a dream, a fantasy.
And only God knows how I’d feel
if all of my dreams could turn out real.
You are always with me.
You live inside my heart.
And there you will always be
and never would we part.
I will always love you
and I will always care.
You changed my life forever.
You’re my one true love affair.
You always knew how to ignite the fire.
You’ll always be my one desire.
It is always you I’m thinking of.
You'll always be my long-lost love. -
27. The Lost Love
Poem About Not Wanting To Grow Old AloneMy lover's voice I long to hear,
My heart will race when she comes near.
To see her face and touch her skin,
And hear her words of love again.
Her voice is faint, so far away.
I will not see her here today,
Nor will I get to touch her hair.
I reach to touch, but she's not there.
I see the image in my mind
Of bygone days and better times,
Of laughter, love, and happy days,
Before we let it all escape
I do not want to be alone,
Growing old, without a home,
Without my love close by my side.
Emptiness, I can't abide.
If you will have me, I'll take you.
We'll start again, with love renewed.
Together always, never to part,
Each holding the other inside the heart.
Be still my mind, it's just your dream,
A nightmare, really, it would seem.
Pride, you see, precedes the fall.
She won't be back, and that is all.
I lift my head and raise my glass
And toast those days that are long past.
To memories of love and home,
To days before I was alone.Latest Shared StoryThis was beautifully accurate.
I'm raising my glass now, even though my heart is buckling under the pressure. I loved it. -
28. The Mad Man And The Cat
Man With Alzheimer's Poem"And I would have loved you,"
He kept saying to her
As he ran his hands through her soft fur.
"And I would have loved you,"
rolled off of his tongue,
the words now so soft it seemed almost sung.
"And I would have loved you."
With a tear in his eye
he said the last words with a sorrowful sigh
"and I would have loved you,
if only I could." -
29. A Prayer Unanswered
Waking I find
Another chill encrusted day
Awaits me
Where I shall walk alone in step of time
To the blighted rhythm
Of what must be
And the looming shadows
Of what might have been
My only solace
Comes of looking back
Upon the horizon of
Memories past
Where the fluxing tapestry
Of life and chance
Carried you soft and safe
Into my arms
And I held you
And you held me
And for a time
No wind of change
Could bear us sway
But somehow...
Some dreadful way how
My eyes left the beauty of yours
My arms reached out
For ambitions of pointless return
And in deafened silence
You slipped from me
For I held you not
And now I am left to search
Across the rolling linen waves
Of life and consequence
Holding hope that
Fate will grant me pardon
And bring you to me
Once again
But I age in waiting
I tire of hoping
I stammer in broken steps
For each night your vigil kept
Brings me aside my bed
To utter yet again
A prayer unanswered -
30. No Such Thing As Happy Endings
The first night they meet
He knew it to be true
This girl who lied before him
Was genuine and true
He looked into her eyes
The deep browns didn't lie
She loved him just as much
Or was it all a lie?
The nights turned into mornings
The days went by too quick
His chances seemed to slip away
With every day that went
Then finally the day had come
She said she couldn't wait.
Time had passed so swiftly
He was far too late
It was then he realized
He made a huge mistake
He let the girl he loved
Simply slip away... -
31. Just Yesterday
Loss Of Relationshipyesterday I was crying...
deep pain creeping within
yesterday I was sobering...
such endless grief, left me shivering
we were once colorful and new
in a blissful land of me and you
just yesterday you were holding me tight
same yesterday you were gone out of sight
I've lived my life from this memory
kept running away, reality been missed
aches of memories, no future have seen
"could I ever survive drowning in misery?"
just yesterday you were gone without me
tried to ponder whatever reason there'll be
just yesterday I was too weak to see
is there any rainbow left only for me? -
32. My Love For You
Unrequited LoveThe Bit by bit and day by day
In such a special lovely way
Do not know why or how to say
But I shall try to... If I may
And thus I shall try to explain
That despite heavy pouring rain
In times of sorrow and of pain
My love for you was not in vain
When I was down and even sad
If I felt angry rather mad
If I was in tears feeling bad
My love for you I did not dread
I was insulted even mocked
My same own life I feel was blocked
The doubts that came and often knocked
My love for you was safely locked
Until the day you came to me
The love in me you did not see
Without you dear how could I be?
My love for you I could not free
And yet you know I still love you
A love that's strong and oh so true
Wher'ver you go wher'ver to
My love for you will follow too
Latest Shared StoryIt was lovely I loved it to, it also touched my heart I think more people should say how good this is well done

33. When Love Dies
When love dies,
It ceases to exist.
And the flame that used to be,
Ceases to persist
It feels like a wound that won't stop bleeding,
Like it's your last breath you're about to take,
And it feels like your soul's watching,
And all you can do is pray you wake.
When love dies,
It's like everything slows down to a stop
The tears that came rolling down your cheeks
Are taking ages to drop
To the cold tiled floor
I fell onto my knees,
It felt as if the light followed her shadow,
As she slammed closed the door...
Love died,
I know this because my soul died too.
And it was hurting as much
As all the pain I put her through.
When love died
I ceased to exist
The only thing that kept us together...
Ceased to persist.

34. Find Love Again With My Ex
I gave you my heart
And you gave it back
When we split apart
My heart was a whole of black.
I said I Love You
I meant it with all I had
You didn't think it was true
Which left me so mad.
April was the end of us
I couldn't let you go,
I still meant to impress
Hoping it would let you know
That I still need you,
And wanted to be happy.
But you knew
That we both would just end up unhappy.
I didn't talk to you
For the longest time.
I was so blue
To give a dime.
To me you are someone else I knew
Than other people saw.
I didn't go with the flow
Ending in me hating you.
Now things have occurred
To where there is no good between us.
Which has become absurd
And much stress.
I just want to forgive and forget
Start over like we never knew one another.
Act like we just met
And one day be close like any other! -
35. A Shattered Heart
Some say a broken heart is like a shattered vase
Fragile pieces scattered all over the place.
The shattered pieces of broken glass seem to go everywhere
Unlike the pieces of a broken heart that seem to pierce your soul.
With faith and hope you try to mend the broken heart
Unlike the vase it cannot be so easily replaced.
It takes a while to mend it and then you lock it up
You hide the key and wait to see if someone can be found
A special person who will use the key to unlock the heart
A unique person who will handle the heart with gentle hands,
Who can be honest, truthful and handle it with care.
My heart and I wonder is there really that kind of person out there.Latest Shared StoryI was broken up with yesterday. I really thought he was the one. We were off and on, but only once in a while. Our breakups wouldn't last long. He says he wants to start a new chapter, and...

36. Silent Tears
Poem About Not Being Able To Let Him GoThe day you said it's over was the day that I died.
When it became dark, I laid down and cried,
Going over and over in my head on what to do.
I could never find the courage to let you be you.
You called me last night and told me that you still cared,
But when the call was over I was empty and in despair.
You were my first love, someone who knew me so well.
But now that we aren't a couple, people can hardly tell.
You have moved on with some other girl, I see.
I cry to myself in the darkness, wishing that it was me.
But here and now I hear your name over and over again.
I cover my heart; my heartbeat weakens because of the pain. -
37. When You Went Away
Still Love Youwhen you went away my world turned cold and gray.
when you wanted to leave I begged you to stay.
you were my life and one day I hoped to be your wife.
memories of her always hid in the shadows
so as you can see I fought many battles.
they say time will mend a broken heart
I just don't know where to start.
memories of him I will always cherish,
I hope this love in my heart will one day perish. -
38. I Wanted To Go With You
Death Of My LoveI was a lonely wanderer, searching for a place to belong, you came into my life and gave me love, a place to call home.
Home is where the heart is, it doesn't always have four walls. Sometimes it can be a park bench, a homeless shelter, no matter where we lay our heads we are together and love counts the most.
We had our trials in life, even a few brief spats and separations but you had my heart as no one ever before, we always made up and got back together, loving each other ever the more.
Now you are gone and I can't be with you for awhile, my aching heart is killing me, I cannot smile. You became sick and wasted away, why oh why did you have to leave me all alone?
I wanted to go with you but I have to wait, wait till my name is called and I hope you come with Jesus to carry me away, this I wait for impatiently each and every day.Latest Shared StoryThe man I have loved for more than half my life is dying from a blood disorder. Every day he and I are realizing that living for the moment is the most important thing in our lives. We...

39. Precious Memories
Poem About Losing Grandchildren Due To DivorceI will take those precious memories
And frame them with my love,
Then hang them in the hallways of my heart.
I hope the fond remembrance
Of the joys that once were shared
Will overcome the tears that want to start.
Little thought was given
As the years went quickly.
We took good times for granted, that is true.
Perhaps, it all was for the best,
Enjoying simple pleasures,
In retrospect, that was all we ever knew.
There was no use to ask the future
To give away its secrets.
No blueprints for what would lie ahead.
It is the choices that are made,
Experiences, both good and bad,
That down life's pathways, all are led.
Looking back, I sometimes wonder
If there were things I should have changed,
A hurt that even now I might appease.
Has it all been taken from me?
No, time has shown a tender mercy
For I still have my precious memories. -
40. Telling Myself
Heal From Broken Heartas I lay here staring out the window
our memories flowing through my mind
holding back as a tear hits the pillow
scared of thoughts I might find.
telling myself I'll be stronger tomorrow
if you would just come back until then
but instead it's constant sorrow
now I have nothing for he was my sin.
as time should heal all things
it feels as if it's going so slow
crying, careless what life brings
but I do not dare to let it show.
for he was my love
now that is gone
telling myself I'll be happier another day
until then
wondering what went wrong
thinking why didn't he stay.
I rather just cry now and not hurt later
and ask myself why this happened to me
telling myself it'll soon get better
I really hope
I believe.
