#lasts poems on Hello Poetry

Another Poet Sep 2017

Our connection was intense
Our kiss was toxic but sweet
The colour of your eyes was like autumn
I was so keen
I was all in

Our bond was strong
Filled with pure alcohol
And when I got sober
I saw clearly the end
You pointed it out for me

I followed your arrow
I followed your footsteps
And you led me to the exit
Now I need a compass
To get the hell out of your soul

Nothing lasts forever, doesn't?

Alienpoet Dec 2016

She's trouble so they say

She's trouble so they say
She'll slay your heart
Tear it apart
Never mind her history
She's a mystery
Neglected as a child
Emotional abuse
she hates men
Does she have a reason?

behind her eyes lesions and cuts to her soul
Though they call her **** and say she's out of control
She yearns and burns for a man who will calm her inner being
See the hurting girl inside who's trapped in her own head
Instead of taking her to bed for a one night stand
A love that hold her through the lonely hours
A love that will never sour
Or grow cold
Or scold her for being her
A love that inspires fire
That comforts her
and talks her through agonising visions of the past
A love that lasts.

I want a love that lasts (any takers?)

I'm only 18 so call this meaningless
I'll tell you I've been in love on at least four separate occasions
with at least four separate girls.
Say that it wasn't really love then
that I was too young and naive to know
what love truly is.
You have every right to believe that if you want.
But to me, each and every one of those times
It truly was love and honestly still is.
I guess it's that they just don't feel it anymore.
I'll doubtlessly fall in love so many more times over
and cry on so many friends shoulders over having my heart broken
but if this is the path I must take to find a truer love than I have ever experienced before than so be it.

I want a love that burns with a passion and intensity so bright
that most others would be burnt up in its light....

Is this too much to ask?...

I want to make somebody feel special and beautiful and wonderful and like they mean something. Like they're somebody's reason for getting out of bed in the morning. The first thought in my head when I wake up in the morning and the last image in my mind before I fall asleep.

I'm not too complicated. I'm really simple, honestly. Just tell me you love me and be faithful. Let me be there for you and let me show you that through all the difficulties in life that some things are worth going overboard for. I want 2 am car rides to Wendy's for frosties and a midnight bonfire in the country as we watch the stars and try to decide which one most resembled the twinkle in the others eye.

two thirty a.m. // "nothing lasts forever"

wE wOuLd DaNcE iN thE reFriGeratOr ligHts
aS iF nO oNe wAs watching and SING SONGS
NO ONE EVER KNEW AT THE TOP OF OUR LUNGS
WITHOUT EVER pausing to bReAtHe BECAUSE
SUFFOCATION IS NEVER A PROBLEM WHEN YOU
HAVE OXYGEN AND YOU WERE MY LIFETIME SUPPLY
WE WOULD GET H I G H OFF OF
CIGARETTE DAYDREAMS THAT WOULD NEVER BURN OUT
AND ON SNOWFLAKES THAT WOULD NEVER MELT bUT I GUESS
FOREVER ALWAYS MEANT SOMETHING DIFFERENT
TO YOU BECAUSE yOu hAVE MET SOMEONE ELSE AND
YOU SAY SHE REMINDS YOU
OF ME BECAUSE SHE LAUGHS A CERTAIN
TYPE OF WAY AND LOVES YOU ENDLESSLY
(oops she didn't tell you that yet did she?)
AND I ALREADY KNOW YOU DON'T FEEL THE
SAME WAY BECAUSE YOU NEVER DO AND
I DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT GIRL BUT IF SHE IS
ANYTHING LIKE ME LIKE YOU SO OFTEN CLAIM
THEN pLeAsE dO nOt bReAk hEr
sHe dOESN'T DESERVE IT SHE DESERVES TO BREATHE
OXYGEN NOT CARBON DIOXIDE SHE DESERVES TO
GET HIGH OFF OF HAPPINESS AND NOT AN ASHTRAY
SHE DESERVES A FOREVER and you will never be able
to give it to her, because forever will never mean
the same thing to you.

(h.L.)

i actually like this one

Our last night

It was so hard not to kiss you 
Our lips have always been magnetic  
I knew you were watching me as I spun  
Around and around and around
 And I told you
I don't get dizzy
Until I stop spinning

Until & Unless

Cheese, say it and be happy
Mourn, do it and be sad
Play, until you die
Treachery, until you lie

Slay, the eternal demon
Hail, to fire
May, you knew the truth
Bitten, by fate's tooth

Hey, yell with all
Energy, until you fall
Live, to die soon
Death, with a deafening boom

|AB|

Rhyme scheme is a b c c.

you changed everything

i used to believe them
when they told me

nothing lasts forever

but then i met you
and that's all it took

to change everything

Forever

They were right when they said that nothing lasts forever.
But I thought forever would last longer than it did.

Beautiful

Beautiful
It's what everyone longs to be,
But how come it seems that no one can see
That outter is cool,
But nothing can compare to what's inside of you.
No one can compare
Nor describe
Repair,
Or deny
That of the beauty inside.
Yet, we fake and we lie.
So stuck on building our pride
We forget how we look on the inside
Well, let me remind you
Beautiful
Stop worrying so much about what clothes you look
****
Fat
Skinny
And Skimpy in
When you could naturally feel the same just being in you own skin

It seems that a lot of people today don't realize how amazing they are because they are so stuck on what they look like. I say take pride in yourself in both your personality and your image. Do what I felt like I couldn't do for the longest. It's a work and progress but I'm trying.byou should too.!

AllAtOnce Sep 2014

make like a tree and leave

the firsts become lasts
and the lasts become firsts
all good things come to an end
every relationship can live or burn
people come and people go
taking up on the current of life
you try and cling to their remains
and you deafen yourself with your cries
it's hard to even think
that in a year, everything will have changed
don't let go and don't forget
but don't let things be forced or feigned
so much to wonder
too much to breathe
i still wonder
where we will stand when you leave
