Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Love unrequited: 3 of 372

Unrequited Why is it I can never tell you how I feel? Never have you realize my feelings are real I've loved you for so long Why does it feel so wrong? You're everything I want but can never acquire Every time I see you I stop to admire Your eyes and your smile Losing myself in them for a while You are so sweet and kind I ca...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Abstract poems: 22 of 517

Reason Every thing you thought was real becomes a dream Each one more complicated and barely what it seems Your life is in shambles and you don't know why You've just about given up and are ready to die This smile cuts across reality and lights up your face She walks over from another world with unparalleled grace She says h...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Feeling lost: 29 of 652

Lost Life listlessly leaping to its last lines, I linger in lament aloof and alone. This dirge if deeds devoid of direction, Deluded with doubts and disillusions define me. Many a moon spent masked melancholy Much to the mourning of mutual minds Silently segregating serious suitors Searching to secure my sincerity and soul F...
Creative Writing > Poetry Best love poems: 29 of 506

Presence of Lovers The grace of a moment captured in a look A soul stolen with the simplicity of a smile A story told in just about every book Beauty personified, every moment worthwhile This gentle sound shakes my soul awake In a vision where all else is silent now Your laughter causes this slight ache My heart stirs more t...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Struggle in life: 31 of 383

The Pretenders Powers of persuasion pilfer my thoughts Disengaged from this world of material matters Enraged at the nothings I have bought With my blood sweat and tears, life in tatters We pretend and try to make it go away We pretend and say we're happy when we're not We pretend to go about our every day As if we're happy ...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Time: 57 of 686

Time Death's mistress counts away the seconds In its infinity all else is measured Waiting for no one yet forever waiting Ticking reality into and out of existence Fickle understanding posing little resistance An idea measured in thought Only there if you think it Hours, days, months, years A countdown to the end of everythi...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Writing: 39 of 464

Poetic Prowess Fine times fly by fierce rhymes entwined in this mind Talented tatters of textured tourniquets falling from old wounds Playing parallel pictures off mirrored images of self Managing to manipulate months and moons across memory Time flows the fine flawless flow of timelessness adrift Painted words vex verily th...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Falling in love: 61 of 576

My Perfect Place I set out looking for a certain place Something I knew I couldn't replace A place to be alone with my thoughts and dreams A place that was quiet, mystical, and serene I did not know what it would look like I knew it'd be a place to spend my life A place to take all my sorrow and regret A place I knew would f...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: The power of positive living: 5 of 25

This Day Another day downs as twilight fades away The shadows and shades of gray dissipate Leaving not but the warm sun's rays Enticing visions from once dark corners The slate swept clean once more As a new dawn is realized Fading fears leaving sights of serenity And that's where I begin my rise Perceiving dreams as possibi...
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Society: 73 of 253

The Watchers Forging forward through fetid memories Seeing senseless acts through ceaseless centuries Humanity hungers for heroism and is denied Society seeks this schism it cannot find This rancid rift infecting reality rapidly Finding fault in every faculty We watch and weep and wait and wonder All the while the world is s...
