#short poems on Hello Poetry

Todd Sommerville Dec 2024

A heart of gold only shines in the sun.

A heart of stone warms no one.

A heart of glass is prone to break.

My heart without yours is too much to take.

My sad and lonely heart was broken and blue.

Until the day it was first loved by you.

just a simple little love poem

Yesterdays Gone

Today may shape tomorrow.
But today,
Cannot, change yesterday.

Today is short.

A wasted today
will soon be gone.

Another yesterday,
We can't change.

Live today with purpose,
with aspirations for tomorrow.

and there will be no more regrets,
for yesterdays.

thanks.

snow on a screen

Static filled blank,
Consuming void,
Fills my gaze,
And I revel,
Basking in newfound freedom,
Finally free of the venom,
Free of the poison and lies,
Free of the illusions painted before my eyes.

the internet can be such a cage.

Easy but hard

It's easy to break.
It's easy to fall.
It's easy to feel like you've hit a wall.
It's easy to hurt and put up your guard,
But just because something's easy
Doesn't mean it isn't hard.

my boots by the door
wait patient to be let out
the cat's less stoic

early version :

my shoes wait silently by the door
to be let out
more patient than the cat

To this day

To this day the scars never fade.
To this day the emptiness didn't go away.
To this day happiness never came.

Short one!

Glimpse

I carved holes into my skin, to my bones,
just so a glimpse of light gets into my soul.

Ego

I don't want to be weak,
Can't let you know I need you.
'Cause I've never needed,
Only provided.
And the power you hold?
Keeps my brain and heart divided.

He's just a man
That's all he is
But when he laughs
I want to be his

Honey Clementine

The room smells good
Until the candle burns out
And now it's just a room again

The flame dances until the wick burns out,
I think our wick burned out.

You ain't the blood,
but I have you in my veins.
You're not my cup,
but I drank the tea, anyway.
