Love is a rose that blooms in spring A warmth that spreads throughout the heart It's a feeling that makes everything Seem like a brand new startLove is a song that's always playing A melody that never ends It's a bond that's worth the waiting For it's where true happiness begins

Alone I wander through the night Searching for a love that's true But all I find is emptiness And a heart that's feeling blueI thought love was meant to last But it's just a fleeting game Leaving me with shattered pieces Of a love that will never be the same

Sad Poems
The thunderstorms of your memories: Quiver the ground of my heart virtually; It never set me free to live independently, From the cage, where I am living for centuries.I neither of can hide and escape: Myself from its flow ; Which is running under-mine! It all the time makes me feel very low.My soul gets writhe in the longing of the past days But my heart and brain don't want mercy pays: Somehow, I know I have nothing certainly, But the memories for spending my life lonely.

I cried today I cried today, I can’t tell you whyThis pain that I bare i’ll have till I die My eyes they sting, my vision is a blurOh what I’d give to find an eternal cure At night I think how is this fairI feel I’m here only because I’m told that they care But when I’m down I feel so alone

Love Poems
The good times are gone, and all that I am left to do is mourn I've never felt this lost while the time passes by,as it tells me of what all love I've lost just to make me cry. I live in a world now, where i mean nothing to the people i meetand to those whom I meant something, are far away in the sky leaving me as nothing but a deadbeat.Even these words I slept and woke up with, are no longer mine these thoughts that I scribble, they think, are no longer divine.

She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that's best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes: Thus mellow'd to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

Love Poems
A special world for you and me A special bond one cannot see It wraps us up in its cocoon And holds us fiercely in its womb.Its fingers spread like fine spun gold Gently nestling us to the fold Like silken thread it holds us fast Bonds like this are meant to last.

Set free from my cage, and not feeling my age I took wing on silent breath of air Aloft and caught up in a forever dream I hadn’t a worry or careOver white mountain peaks, and rivers blue, Green pastures, and majestic horizons I flew Never have I known such contentment and love As I have from unparalleled stations above

Lost, confused, and abandoned by reason Stripped bare in the midst of a cruel winter seasonConsummate victim of the Great Fall In crippling pain and now forced to crawlOn knees not accustomed to bending, On thorny and harsh, rocky ground,With abiding dreams of an ending To the pain he sees all around

Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow.

I'm going to the corner Because one I'm a loner.Two, people scare me to the point I want to flee.Three, I hate myself That's why there are suicide notes on the shelf.Four, I want to hide Just like I wish to fly.
