I’m just a man looking for a woman and a therapist

One to fix me, one to love me, in any order

And you, you’re just a lovely, sweet, spoiled

Left by a father, whose death ruined you

It burns like a wildfire, ebbing in all directions

Our duo resembles a bear and a bear trap

While the poacher of souls trains his stare on us

Chewing tobacco with a tear in his shirt

With a wife somewhere, with all her chords in the proper sockets

Bored, dumping her love down the sink with the extra beans

Running the water we’ve come to share like barroom jokes.

And back to you and me, it was only a month; and I loved you

You never knew, because stitches never love a wound

They fall away frivolously, and anonymous

Much like us, now, with alarms of harder times burning in our ears

Yet the sound never fades, it sticks around like the old friends

The ones who helped you before you were famous, or infamous

you don't know how to carry
the burden of being alone
you can try by pretending
to have company.

But in the end of the
day, sleep
is your
best friend.
just a simple shout-out to self

As if getting over you wasn't hard enough.
I also came to realize that there is no need to act tough.

Never said it out loud that I actually love you,
not sure I could even admit it too.

Told you what I wanted and made it pretty clear.
Had to put my pride aside and face my biggest fear.

If only you could open up and tell me whats on your mind.
If what you felt was love maybe it did make you blind.

I don't like how things between us ended.
Sometimes I think you even took it for granted.

Can we just start over again? No need to be lovers.
Just clear things out and say how we feel about eachother.

Keep telling myself I should be over you, forgetting that feelings dont vanish over a day or two.

You're my first real love and I will never forget how you made me feel.
Might not have been official but it sure was something real
This is/was my first serious poem I wrote around December. It's about guy I dated and liked very much. Unfortunately things didn't work out for the best. But the heartache helped me to write this and this helped me heal.
Gravity
Always pulls us together,

In his arms,
Each moment is infinite;
It lasts forever.

As I sink
Into his chest,

I find myself at home;
My only comfortable,
Secure place to rest.

As I fall deep down
Into his soul,
His heart beat
Echoes right through me -

The only sound I love to hear,
"Home Sweet Home"
Is where I always long to be.

Whilst in his embrace,
The rest of the universe
Does not exist to me,

Because nothing else matters;
When his love consumes me,
The entire universe
Is made up of only
Him and me!

People often tell me that
I live in a fantasy land
I tell them it's true
If I didn't have my imagination
I couldn't survive my reality

you let me lean on
your fragile shoulders
for as long as the
world keeps shaking,
holding me tight
and promising me
light will break
through even the
darkest of our days

Looking at your sleeping figure for the last time
Sprawled across the comfiest couch we have ever slept on
I smile as softly as your snores that barely fill the room
Give your left cheek a swift kiss
As my silent goodbye you'll never know I gave

I slowly tuck the blanket around your hips and chest
Knowing how much you need to be held on to
Then walk out the familiar door I will never see again
Turning off my hurting heart the same way
I am forced to turn that golden, squeaky doorknob closed
