Her Poems - Poems about Her

The brothers may have said it best You've lost that lovin feelin But I've managed to convince myself My own righteousness is why I stay Every effort I make Every swing I take Misses the mark And comes up empty It still haunts me now and then Some nights far more than others Opportunities foresaken Yesterday's regrets last to today I know I'm far from...

Memories are fickle things They seem to love to torture When you desperately just want to forget Seems memory's fruitage is an orchard They can seemingly come from anywhere But they don't need to be regretted They should still be remembered fondly Not bemoaned, erased, or fretted Because if memories were cheating No one could be loyal Just because something comes to mind Doesn't mean your...

You said goodbye Like it would be a grenade in my heart Waited for the bang Not realizing I had let go from the start You thought it would be better If we were to stay here, both worlds apart You said goodbye But the horse had not been put before the cart You wanted a reaction You wanted me to cry You wanted me...

For thirty years, I was lost, empty and devoid of purpose. I surmised I would never thrive, deprived of love. Bereft of all that is good in this world. That was until I first saw my daughter’s eyes. Before that day, my heart was shattered and cold. Trauma, rage, sadness, had stolen my soul. Apathy, depression, obsession with vengeance,...

Somethings need no explanation You see a word You know it's spelt wrong A letter out of place You just know it You may know nothing about music Until a wrong chord is struck One bad note And no one has to tell you You just know it I came to know you Beyond the person people see There was nothing out of place No wrong chord in...

Her smile, the softly ringing bells of her laughter, the newly discovered talismans against encroaching death. The delicate light, faint but growing, that first lit and warmed her own glowing freckled skin, danced in her eyes like the sea in the summer, bounced off the glints of auburn in her hair until she seemed lighted from...

You’re the kind of beautiful that feels like it belongs in a poem — soft, powerful, unforgettable. You’re the kind of person that makes others believe in magic again — not the kind in fairy tales, but the real kind, the kind that lives in rare hearts like yours. You have this way of making...

I found this book of empty pages... ...sat down on my bed. I closed my eyes... Then I went into my head... All I could hear was your voice... All I could see was your face... My body began to tingle... ...at the warmth of your embrace. My heart began to beat faster... That's when you touched me. That's when you kissed me gently... And said...
