Poem: Call MeCall Me

There’s a little spark
Of a feeling I thought was gone
I’ve held all my breath in
Until I thought I would die
I held onto every word you spoke
And, just like a fool,
I thought I could get over you

Sometimes I take the long way
And hope that when I get home
It’s all just a nightmare
And I’m not alone
Pretend you’re not gone
and moving on

I know it’s wrong
To hold on to this
It’s not comforting
To know what could’ve been
I know the truth
I know it hurts
But I know there’s nothing left
Giving up is not giving in

Call me when you fall in love
So I can move on with my life
So when y

Poem to a departed loved oneI never understood why you left,
I just dealt with the news as best I could.
I didn't hold on so tight for no reason,
I was terrified of letting you go.

I thought if I just squeezed your hand,
I could get you to squeeze back in kind.
I guess I was wrong to not let go,
I guess I should have said goodbye.

I was scared, you know,
I wasn't ready for that,
I didn't want to grow up so fast.
I wanted to stay exactly how I was,
I wanted you there, incase I fucked up.

I said goodbye to you,
I don't think you could hear me,
I saw you leaving on your way,
I always hope with all of my heart,
I will see you up there, one day.

We Accept the Love We Think We DeserveIt was February.
He said that he loved her.
She couldn't believe it.
So he kissed her.
She tried to hold his hand.
He thought that was juvenile and dumb.
But they were together now.
They both smiled.
She wrote him poems.
She made him presents.
She hid surprises in his things, for him to find once she'd gone.
She still tried to hold his hand sometimes.
She begged him,
"Please try to tolerate me," half joking.
He never did.
But she still smiled.
He came and watched her sing.
He never said 'Great Job!'
He never brought her flowers.
He never said 'thank you' for his surprises and presents.
He never thought to return the favors.
But she kept hoping he would.
So she smiled.
It was June.
He said he wasn't feeling good about things.
He said he might walk away.
She was terrified.
She said it was all her fault.
She wiped away the salty pools from his eyes and face.
They both were scared.
But they both smiled.
He corrected her grammar,
but he read her stories.
He talked down to her,
but he listen

Roses are red...Blood is red,
Bruises are blue.
Darkness is black,
And my heart is too.

Why are roses red?
Are violets really blue?
Does love really exist?
And is it really true?

Violets are red,
Roses are blue.
Is everything a lie?
Is anything true?

L.O.V.E.L.O.V.E.

It swallows you whole,
Exceeds your control.
Apprehends your soul,
Until it has taken its toll.

It’s an overwhelming feeling.
That is made to be appealing
And you can’t help revealing,
The doubts you are concealing.

It’s an undefined dimple
And a well known jingle.
But only when you are single
Does it all seem so simple.

It is one of life’s many gifts,
That empowers and uplifts
And can lead you adrift.
Should you miss your shift.

It is impossible to describe it.
It is impossible to fight it.
Because once it is ignited
And once you have tried it.

It will take your independence.
You will become used to it

Sorrow In LoveWeave your sorrow,
With your hands,
Whittle it in willow,
'Til you can no longer stand.

Carve your pain in stone,
And sit on broken rocks of life,
A place to call home,
At least for a time.

Write it in blood,
On the sand,
Emotions flood,
This empty land.

They pour through the cracks,
On your sanity,
What you lack,
Is clarity.

So as senses shatter,
On concrete walls,
Know it matters,
If you fall.

Hate me,
I love you,
Save me,
From pain you put me through.

Tell Me About It!Tell me about it...all of it.
Tell me your wildest fantasies.
I may not be able to make them
come true in this lifetime--
but I would like to know them.

Tell me about it...all of it.
Tell me your darkest fears.
Know that you are safe with me,
and they will never come for you--
not if I have anything to say!

Tell me about it...all of it.
Tell me your raciest desires.
You have nothing to fear by sharing,
only a willing audience for you
to share about what fuels your lust.

Tell me about it...all of it.
Tell me about your scariest nights.
Don't be afraid, Mr. Krueger will not
come out of the dark looking for you,
you just have me looking on yo

Quiet Time...Come lay beside me,
and let's share some time.
It's silent running now--
no need for you to speak.

Come here and relax,
let the world rage outside.
Nothing to do or be done--
just let the afternoon flow.

Come enjoy the silence
of our quiet time together.
Hold me close as I hold you
and never stray from my arms.

Come and be with me now...
we have each other, no more.
We own this time, no one else--
and the day has longer to go.

--RKJ

#Another-Poetry-Group 's Challenge: Accepted!How exactly do you make me feel?
All of my mental wounds you healed.
Miles away, you may be
But you feel so close to me still.

I get butterflies when we speak
I’ll be even worse when we meet.
You make my heart skip several beats
Yet I’m falling for you like I tripped on the street.

And though I feel as if you deserve better
Ill be here for you and defend you whenever
Because if you agree we can find love together
And if you choose not we can stay best friends forever.

A Hole In My ChestAs the sun passes
Born anew and again dies
The days grow longer
This sinking regret eternal
I cannot get over you

The DreamStanding here, next to you
I stare into those eyes once again
Think back to when I first met you
How you stood out among the others
And for one short second that day
You were the only other one in the room
I knew there was something about you
Something incredibly great and special
And now I find myself back in the moment
I have no doubts, no concerns
I am sure you are the one
The one I have been looking for
All of this time
And that’s when it happens
I say the words “I do”

AloneSo lonely
So misunderstood
So unsure
A crowded room
Yet I feel isolated
Why?
A faceless crowd
Should mean nothing to me
And yet,
It brings out my deepest fears
My most melancholy thoughts
Air escapes me
And suffocates me all the same
I can't wait to go home
To my lover
To my best friend
To my razor
It's all I have left
Other then my thoughts
Which lead to one thing
Suicide
The beautiful paradise
Many fear
Many hate
Yet I love
I dream of the painful truth
As if it was beautiful
Death
I shall meet you soon
I love you.

Behind these eyesBehind these eyes
You'll never see
The painful truth
My painful world
All you'll see
Is a beautiful lie
The mask I hide behind
The laughs I force
The smiles I fake
You'll never see
The ugly side
The constant tears
The constant pain
The shattered peices
That's left of my heart
You'll never see
My ugly side
No matter how much you try
No matter how close you get
It shall Forever elude you
Do not blame yourself
Because you did not find
The scars on my wrist
The pain in my voice
It's not your fault
All my experience
Turned me into a great actress

Broken AgainI am broken, okay?
I'm just broken again
And I'm falling apart
Like the night turns to day

Every sunrise that comes
Every war lost or won
I lose more every day
And the fight's never done

I am breaking in two
In this life I will lose
As I can't take the hurt
That keeps scratching on through

I will never again
Call you up to complain
You've done all you can do
But I'm broken again

Betrayal

Roses are red
Violets are blue
For all loves sake
Let your heart be true

Sun is to shine
To set is divine
What is love to you?
Whatever it be, I shall comply

The Lord is love
The spirit pure
Through batting an eye
Your unconditional love is ensured

The light is to fade
The night forms
The warmth between us
Is wasted away

The crickets play
The wind hums
You are asking of the warmth
I ask “What have I done?”

The song ends
The wolves come out to play
I ask for amends
The bond will never stay

The flickering candle
The freezing cold
Within your absence
I have foretold

You will abandon me
Without a plea
You will leave me
Your roo

These things I feel
I don't know if they should be revealed
this constand pressure
of wanting you to have better
I dont know what to do
about this love I feel for you
you make things feel right
even though admitting it to myself brings fright
i just cant bear to know
what will happen if I let my feelings show
I just want you to know there true
and that I can't stop thinking about you
Your eyes are so green
and the most beautiful I have ever seen
your face is so sweet
when I look at you it makes my heart fleet
and your lips
remind my of how much of my heart is in your grip
you just mean so much to me
and i'm afraid that we arn't able to be
you dont know what you want
and it starts to make my heart daunt
just make sure you never
forget that you are in my heart forever
