Short 30 Words Poems

Love, a curse
An emotion irremovable in our lives
Pain, suffering, betrayal, and wet eyes
Love, a blessing
Magnifying feelings of lust and belonging
Hiding faults and inspiration for improving...

My boyfriend is
smoking hot.
I kid you not.
Under that hood
I understood
lay my destiny.
In the dark I 
felt the spark
as we passed.
Love to last.

nectar gathered by buzzing bees
cherry blossoms like popcorn trees

busy eyes suntan bikini pose
 love breeze flows Spring shows

lovers move fast moments stall
chasing breath country clocks crawl...

While I watch her, an adored jewel,
Flinging on with my old pal
She crashes from the pedestal,
Like a burst of glass
As love etches death on the alley.

I pushed my homework

To stargaze with Kermit Frog toy…

Angrily, he threw my moppet

While I glared at this shadow,

Plunging from an adored throne

Like a villain.

Never lie
That's what you preached
But your promises
We're hollow
You just left
Why
40 years later
You show up
Dying
Asking
For forgiveness
Why did you bother

Taken






Once a rhyming heartbeat,
glowing pearl of my eyes,
With betrayal of trust
was taken into tears of regret,
As cascades of intense passion,
evanesced never to rise.

Igniting this blaze of longing
I cherished your moonglow,
And our kisses encouraged
My vulnerable heart to surge on---
But your mocking tone
 accidentally
 spilled;
“This is an impetuous rebound.”

beneath skies of topaz

flawless

 infinite     in     depth     and     clarity
 
the clouds had fallen...

a soft white cushion
just for us

laughing

we lay back
and made snow angels 
together

I have fallen, fallen into sadness,
Why did you leave me, my beloved?
You were my hero but you drove too fast,
     Since your death, I have fallen into poetry.

Best friends forever

               two bracelets, each with half a heart

      friendship ended when the tart stole my boyfriend

Tossed ~ one bracelet. Tossed ~ two friends who lost my respect. 



(For cousin Susan, who thought she had to steal everyone's boyfriend)

Mother says when he let me down,

I tore up the flowers from the neighbor’s garden.

I do not recall this, but his failing me

has left a lasting impression.

			His reputation's gone to pot.

FALLEN

Pepped up for her wedding
          Geared and went beyond my resources 
                    Travelled miles on receipt of invite
                                She clung only to special few
                                      Unapolegetically ignored and broken, I regretted going

Fallen
By Curtis Johnson

While a young man, he achieved  great measures of success.                                 I rejoiced with him and his family; but when his failure was exposed,                         so quickly my happiness turned to grief.
