You'll Know
by Brandy Clark
When the wind blowsAnd whispers through the trees,You'll know I remember you.When the rain fallsAnd drips from the flower petals,You'll know I have forgiven you.When a tear escapesAnd trickles down my cheek,You'll know I still love you.
Always
by Judy Burnette
Do we realize the pricewe would both have to payIf our love became revealedin the light of day?My heart longs to be with youit longs to be set freeTo be released from the responsibilities I haveto be together . . . you and me.Yet who we are dictatesit says what we must doI know I must release youto find someone new.Please know I will always love youit will be your memory that caresses my faceYou are so much a part of meyou will never be erased.So go in peace, my loveoccasionally whisper my nameAlways know I will come straight to youshould my circumstances ever change.

The Truth In Love
by Elizabeth
Can you not see the hurt in her eyes,the painthe sorrow?It comes with every new tomorrow.Don't you see if you leave her reaching for you at arms length,her heart screaming your name,your relationship can and will never be the same?A wild rose is your love,beautiful yet piercing -longing to be tame.For this are you willing to surrender your precious fame?So you see it isn't all that it's cracked up to be,romance and poetry.What is?When you wake in a cold sweat because she isn't there.You reach for the phone -suddenly there's no one to call.Was it really worth your one kiss love affair?The relentless pain inside your empty heart.The girl on the other side of the room from whom you thought you'd never part.So now you know -Though you'll never admit it.There's nothing worse than a broken heart.
Here & Now
by Jamie
Here & NowWill we ever be again?I need you to be thereI need you as my friendHere & NowWill you allow me back into your life?Will you hold me like the old times,and make everything all rightHere & NowWill you take me by your side?Will you never let me go,and make sure your feelings never hideHere & NowWill you make sure I'm with you every single day?Will you promise me for all time,'cause I wouldn't want it any other way
Glance
by Jayzee
You walk by -with only a glance at me.With my heartin my faceCan you not see?No flash of emotion -Gone is the devotion -Dead the loving notion.Only a glance.
I'm Sorry
by Duke Nguyen
I'm sorry for everything you've been throughIt must've been very hard on youI'm sorry for all that's been said and doneI was the moon, you were the sunI'm sorry for not making everything rightBut the situation I was in, was very tightI'm sorry for not lending you a handIf only I could be a better friendI'm sorry if it seemed like I didn't careLucky for you, your special- someone was thereI'm sorry for breaking your heartFor forgiveness, where do I start?
All I Can Ask For
by Vanessa Ginarte
I'm here waitingImpatiently, eyes full of tears,The other day you said you loved meYou said it perfectly clear.Now, today's a new dayAnd you're not here by my side,Now everything you told meJust feels like pain and lies.You said you would be here foreverWas that just a lie, too?You made promises you couldn't keepI had all my faith in you.You took off with my heartAnd life inside your hands,I'm left empty and incompleteWhy can't you understand.You let me downWhen my hopes were high,I try to smileBut I always sigh.I'm left aloneWith all this pain and misery,Your love is all I ask forWhy can't you see.You loved me for who I wasNot for who I tried to be,You were the best thing that ever happen to meYou'll always be inside of me.We've been through too muchFor you to push me away,I'll always love you no matter whatIt will never fade away.

That Dreadful Day
by Danny Fortunato
The Day will come when we must bid farewell to one another,And although that day has not yet arrived,I can, even now feel the pain and sorrow.I wonder, can you feel it or even see it too?Do you think these years of happiness was all it was meant to be?Or is there more to be seen or discovered?Look at it for one fleeting moment and ask yourselfAre you ready to give this up?I think about it for a split second and realize,The girl who put up with me everyday,Listening to all of my problems, sharing my joy,And dealing with my weird sense of humor with a warm and comforting smile,isn’t going to be there anymore.This is where the sorrow pours in and tears flood my eyes.Knowing that in an instant a part of my life,Someone who I cared for more than anything could disappear without a second glance.I look ahead a few years and wonder if you actually made it.If you really became what you wanted.But then memories arise and I go back to that day,When the glitter of love shined in our eyes, and all of our dreamsWere a mere breath away.And as we stood among huge crowds of people, we never felt alone,Because we knew that we had each other, and we almost made it through.But then it happened, some force drove us apart.As I looked at you, and you at me, both of us saying good- bye,I noticed a single tear of sorrow and remorse roll from the corner of your eye,And that’s when I knew in my heart, as we began to fall apart.We would be seeing each other for the very last time.

The Wake Of My Recovery
by Jayzee
When you came into my life,you breathed a new passion into my soul.You gave me a reason to faceand conquer each day with purpose, confidence.You excited my heart and my need to love-and I did love . . . you.My world grew bright with all that was youand my everything became you.But with no warning or backward glanceyou blackened my existence with your retreat-Into another's arms.I felt I couldn't breathe without you.You left me with no defense. No understanding.Left to stumble and learn to live my lifealone, without your passion and "love. "Time crawled when helping me to mendmy shattered soul.Every step I made toward recovery filledme with hate and distrust.Bitterness.Gone was the hope and faith. Replacedhollowly by fear and rage.In the wake of my recovery I left manybroken hearts. As you left mine.After many horrid mistakes I slowly came torealize what I should have known before.The passion we shared, the love we had-wasn't because of you.It was because of me.When with you, I wasn't myself.And I fell.With my new realization I began a truerecovery- discovery of the beauty within me.Much time later I can smile at our good timesand leave the pain felt behind me.I have blossomed into myself. I'm surroundedby those that truly love me.Now that you see my newfound independenceand security, you want me again.Suddenly you see that all you've ever hopedand wished for is within me.But with the pain you caused, you taughtme something else.Self-worth.I love myself.And you don't deserve me.Goodbye.

Nights Without You
by Julia
Sleepless, dreamless, hopeless nights,I wish for you to come.To fill my eyes with tears of happiness,and take away this glum.I wish for you to put your hands around me,and make me cozy and warm,and fill my stomach with butterflies and bees,that so gently swarm.I wish for you to bring me joy,when everything seems so bad,and take me out of this unhappy mood,that makes me feel so sad.I wish for you to give me back the memoriesthat brightened up my heart,and let us share more of them,because I do not understandwhy we ever did part.I wish for everything to be as it was,having soft sleeps filled with dreams and hope tonight,so that for every coming day there is a shine of light.Does it have to end like this?For I'm not back in your arms, my dreams still torn, my heart still empty, my life with no happiness, my day with no future without you.

Memories
by Brian Lawson
I felt it would be better not to remember you,to never entertain the thought of your kiss upon my soul,but I long to feel the fire of your hot, hungering lips,lovingly pressed on my lips,the tender whispers you uttered softly in the night,once filled a part of my lifeI was a prisoner harnessed by your smile,led by your eyes,moved by your touch,and totally captivated by your being,but still,we couldn't make it through the storm,So now that things have changed,there will always be a special placeyou will hold deep in my heart,and I will cherish in my memories,the smile in your eyes,the softness of your lips,the sensuality in your walkI guess there will never by any describing,indescribably you.
The Joke's On Me
by Judy Burnette
I keep waiting for the phone to ringYet I know it won't be you;I try to fill my life with busynessYet all I do is think of you.What became of usAnd all our dreams and plans;How could you turn and walk awayAs I watched our castles turn to sand?Do you never even miss meDon't you long to caress my face;How could you forget so easilyAnd You I can't erase?I want to be in your arms againTo see the laughter in your eyes;But I guess the joke's on meAnd Oh! Was I surprised!
The Sound
by Phoebe Moon
Evening falls onto this lonely city,As the night- time shadows creep.You and I are far apart,This emptiness keeps me from my sleep.Where has the time taken you?Yesterday seems so wasted.Calling out words of pain,To think it could have lasted.Did I ruin what we had?Words seems so distorted.Try to clean them with some care,The memories are now all sorted.The sound, so bittersweethaunting with its repetitive glueHolding on, never ceasingThe sound is of youSilence falls on this tiny city,A soulful calmness fills the air.Mental paintings are all that's left,I could not meet you there.Pessimistic voices call,But it was both of us who spoke.The pain traveled both ways,My spirit that had once soared is broke.The sound, so bittersweethaunting with its repetitive glueHolding on, never ceasingThe sound is of youChills fall on this windy city,All alone, it is dark.My eyes ache from non-stop tears,You had left your mark.Absence has killed the path,Where do I go from here?Do I listen to the sound,Or die with your fear?
Risk
by Todd-Michael St. Pierre
Oh death may say of dreams in youth -"You never knew her private truth."So much we weren't prepared for,Hearts should be nurtured and cared for.I stepped into this dance with you,I chose to take this chance with you!Facing risk, I knew the dangers . . .For when the dancing ends,Though many remain friends,Some becomeStrangers!
Now That It's Gone
by Christine Hogan
I never would have thought thatthere'd be a you and me.It wasn't plausible.It wasn't possible.But out of the star-crossed skyfell an opportunity.It was great.It was special.It was magic.It made my lifesuch a blissful state of euphoria.My eyes sparkled.My soul danced.My heart rejoiced.And now that it's goneI wish there was something in its place.I want a new dream.I want a new heart.I want a new chance.But mostly,I'm receiving only loss.I remember the happy times and think there'll be no more.I remember little thoughts of you and sigh 'cause you're gone.I remember my contented heart and sigh because now it's broken.And now that you're gone,I can't help but miss you.For every where you used to smile an empty memory loomsof your soulful eyesyour shy smileand your beautiful face.
Let's Make A Deal
by Diane Blue
You forgive me for liking you too much,And I'll forgive you for not liking me enough.You forgive me for missing you so,And I'll forgive you for being so cold.You forgive me for the loud racing of my heart,And I'll forgive you for not hearing it.You forgive me for playing your games,And I'll forgive you for toying with my emotions.You forgive me for finding you so attractive,And I'll forgive you for not noticing.You forgive me for raising you up so high,And I'll forgive you for bringing me down so low.You forgive me for wanting to be with you,And I'll forgive you for avoiding me.You forgive me for being so pathetic,And I'll forgive you for taking advantage of it.You forgive me for not being able to let go,And I'll forgive you for never having latched on.You forgive me for having hopes and dreams,And I'll forgive you for crushing them.Forgiveness brings inner peace.Do we have a deal?
I Learn To Be Strong
by Felicia
Words of wisdom come to my ears,Telling me what I know in my heart, But never wanted to hear.With the truth finally said and out in the open for me to plainly see,I wonder why I can love so deeply but never had that love returned back to me.I confessed the feelings that I held inside for so long,But with his soft- hearted rejection, I realize I have to be strong.With tears that want to flow from my eyes,I feel that my heart, along with my composure, slowly dies.While this dramatic side is showing through with my ability to question and reason,I think I may have found something in me that I can believe in.Love hurts . . . That's what they all say,But I will love again when all this pain and sorrow goes away.So I sit and think of all the things this situation has cost,And I realize that nothing very important has been lost.Instead, a learning experience has come from all this.I've learned that hardly anything is more important than my happiness.
Garden Of Eden
by Shawn Mette
Memories of you have stained me foreverTo let you go would kill meTo make you stay is certain deathTotal confusion of the body, soul, and mind.Your eyes hold contemptAs you speak words of love so sweetlyTrying to tempt me to take some fruitThe garden has died at my feetYet you lead me to our treeWhere it all beganThe stars cannot foresee what the future holdsI wonder what your motive is as you kiss meThe smell of flowers fill my sensesAs you take all of me inThe garden appears to bloom againFull of lifeYou turn from me, breaking our kissI try to catch you, but you run from me laughingI look around to see nothing but myselfAlone in the nightStanding in the moonlightSurrounded by the death of my sanity
You'll Never Know
by Sonja
You'll never knowHow much I loved you,How much I cared.You'll never knowAbout my pain,About my broken heart.You'll never knowHow much I cried,Just lying on my bedAnd thinking of you . . .kissing her.
And They Were All Lies
by #5 Poetic Society
I couldn’t ignore the pain any longerLife was just too muchI never saw my life in future timesOr happiness and love and suchI’d been to the edge with the intent to jumpAnd had become happy with thoughts of no painFeeling my uselessness as an inherited curseI had nothing left to gainThe sun failed to shineIn my world overcastBirds no longer sangAnd the first had become the lastAll things good and wholeHad turned and went their wayThey were never to return to meSo I felt I should just go awayConsumption by hate, to save was too lateWhere should I turn now?Why do I get kicked when I’m down?When could I be happy? Or even better, how?Fallen and fetalI will return to the dirtBittersweet battle withinNo longer would I hurtSmiles soon fadedAnd hearts followed to breakAs I cried out for helpI cried in heaven’s sakeRoutinely I criedFor a hand to reach to meI looked blankly at emptiness’ stareAnd closed my eyes reluctantlyBut I felt one more fight, a chance in meTo save myself from isolationPiercing my lips were words of insignificanceAnd the end to my frustrationAs time's hands moved on and onTogether, as one, we grewNow solitary routine you seekYou seek you never knewTired of times we spend togetherTired of me you growTired of being tired in timeNo feelings will you showBut in time as your thoughts are evenWill I be thought of only as your pawnAnd will you be happy or sadWhen I’m finally gone?

Thinking Of You
by Mr Smith
I think of you all through the night,to keep me warm and hold me tight.And with these thoughts I think of howwe made sweet love and had a child.But now you're gone, I'm all alone,you have our child and a happy home.You've found someone to treat you right.He's always there on those lonely nights.So alone I sit and think of you,the child we had and the love I once knew
Love
by Anna Gillis
You said the words I love you,But it is obvious things have changed.I said the words I love you,And my feelings are still the same.You said I'll love you forever,But forever wasn't long enough.I said I'll love you always,And I'll mean it forever.But I can not imply to youWhat that means,'Cause your version of ForeverIsn't what it seems,And my version of AlwaysSeems like an unrealistic dream.
Sad Love Poems

Love is a Universal emotion, the goal we all seek, the prize that can make our lives complete and whole. Love is both timeless and, in too many instances, transient. These poems are about those times.
We all believe, if only because we must, that love can be found. Some of us - maybe most of us - have discovered it can also be lost.

  • love poem
  • It lies not in our power to love or hate,For will in us is overruled by fate.When two are stripped, long ere the course begin,We wish that one should love, the other win;And one especially do we affectOf two gold ingots, like in each respect:The reason no man knows, let it suffice,What we behold is censured by our eyes.Where both deliberate, the love is slight:Who ever loved, that loved not at first sight?
