You have no idea
How much my heart bleeds
One single word unclenches me
You lead me on
Only to let me go
You promised you wouldn't hurt me
And still I told you
Words are never a guarantee

You have no idea
How I wish you would have never said anything
From the love induced words
To the midnight crazed hearts
To the love language of touch
Caressed assurances that
I am the only one
Who knew what lay ahead

You have no idea
How I fell for every little bit of you
From your laughter
Your infectious smile
Alluring presence
Charismatic benevolence
Generous soul
A weakness they may suffice

You have no idea
How I hate repeating myself
But for you a parrot I become
Saying words not heeding them
Going over the same things
All over again, drowning
Misery since I'm miserable
Look what unruly affections have done to me

In the darkest sky I feel so alive.
The dictates of affection are beyond one's control.

Whoever told you that requited love doesn't hurt was wrong
If more it kills every living cell inside your body
It tears away your heart living your chest solo
It racks your brain making it a jumbled mess
It weakens your spirit by deeming it

Whoever told you requited love is a walk in the beautiful blue sea was right
Yet they never warned you about the dark storms that shake your existence
Yet nobody mentioned the jaws of hungry sharks awaiting to devour you
Yet no one said that at times you would drown so deep only having yourself to rescue you
Yet what they saw was the beautiful aqua blue but no one saw the ugly black of the Bermuda love triangle

Whoever told you that requited love was a walk in the park was somewhat not mistaken
I wonder if they told you , you'd step in dog **** in the park and in love you may stumble upon disturbing facts
I wonder if they told the park might have laughter but some go there because they need a break from unruly passions
I wonder if they told you that people get kidnapped in a park and so does love cage the heart
I wonder if they knew walking in the park on a rainy day can cause a cold because in love,love sickness is a disease that can very well **** you

Whoever told you requited love was the icing on top of the cake probably had a sweet tooth
Here I am confirming you may never get to finish the whole cake to taste the icing
Here I am addicted to the sweet savory taste of love that now I feel nauseous
Here I am having toothaches after a terrible fall
Here I am believe that if requited love is the icing at least unrequited love won't give you any tonsils since the icing and the cake will never be yours.
All aspects of love hurt whether requited or unrequited.

Everyone says no to us
Yet our hearts entwine
Everything is against us
Yet when our eyes meet it's just us
Even as a tear drops
I know you are still ready to crucify me
They say ice and ice
Is bound to freeze
Yet the fire in our hearts
Burns brighter than ever
Won't the warmth keep us breathing
How to tame our hearts from going wild
The only way is to crash the spirit
In your so called ways
To purify the soul
Yet it will **** us
With an excuse of keeping us alive
After diminishing us
Extinguishing any hope
We have for the future
You think we are wrong
The problem is
You think
We believe that in this world
Right or wrong  is a question for our hearts
Let the hearts decide
Our minds fool us
Our eyes blind us
Our people abandon us
The world betrays us
Yet you still crucify us

®I never betrayed but a snitch they said I was
When will we be equals

When did I love you become a half hearted promise
When did the stars stop shinning when you stared deep into my eyes
When did tears replace laughter in our nights
When did laying next to you become a dream that keeps drifting and I awaken
When did hurting each other be the language of proving a point
When did numbers become a measurement of our love
When did lies become a basic livelihood to our incomplete love story
When did secrets become part of our supposedly open relationship
When did I become Sherlock to be unraveling Pandora's box when your heart is my home
When did all this begin because clearly I can't fathom
When did going on peaceful walks become a mirage I create in my mind
When did I become an option in your list of priorities
When did you start saying I love without meaning it,
When, please remind me love
I don't understand this you are changing
LONE STAR Oct 2022
Does it feel right
Sincerely with no fright
How I always take the blame in our fights
Every single night
You make it so hard to hold you tight
Is our love even a pure white
I wonder  when you stopped being my knight
Where is that light
I'm holding on with all my might
It's hard to hold the tears from my sight
In your eyes everything I do requires a plight
Nowadays your anger is so easy to ignite
A bit of an argument it shows on site
Why has our love become a hard bite
It no longer shines bright
Am I worthy in your eyes, your forgotten limelight
Be sure I ask with a lot of fright
It's either free or flight
Please,answer me tonight
I don't understand this you are changing

Her
When eyes talk listen...
Well it's rather a statement
But I do want to second it
Eyes disclose what mouths cannot.
When I first saw her...
It's at that moment that
I marveled at her beauty and now my mouth can say
That she is indeed beautiful.
Not only my mouth but also my heart and my entire being.,
As I got to know her.,
I realized an air of keen intelligence and self importance about her.

I know, yes I do know that
That perfect is not for human
Or should I say beings?
She is an angel
At least this will grant me
Full reason to say that
She is indeed perfect
The star that shines in my most gloomy nights and days...
My strength
My light
My Lonestar

If teardrops could be bottled
There’d be swimming pools filled by models
Told, “A tight dress is what makes you a *****”
If “I love you” was a promise
Would you break it, if you’re honest?
Tell the mirror what you know she’s heard before
I don’t wanna be you anymore
Misunderstood   A black rose poem
