I Tried to Tell You

I tried to tell you I love youbut the words were hard to find.

I'm always thinking about youyou're the only one on my mind.

Oh why do I act so shy forever hiding my faceI should learn to laugh and not to cry put yourself in my place.

There were times I tried to kiss you but something told me no.You wanted me to hold you but I

kept letting you go.I'm afraid that I am not the guy

you've searched for all these years.I will kindly leave now don't you cry

try to hold back your tears.It's been so long I haven't seen you

for quite awhileWhen I think of how we me met it only

brings back your smile.I remember when I held you then and

told you we'd never partI loved you then I love you now and

I'll hold you in my heart.

While You Were Sleeping

While You Were SleepingWhile you were sleeping I felt your heart beating.While you were sleeping in my head love was repeating.While you were sleeping all I could do was smile.While you were sleeping I watched you for a while.While you were sleeping I always held your hand.While you were sleeping I knew where my heart would land.While you were sleeping you would hold me near.While you were sleeping I would cry all my tears.While you were sleeping from you I knew I wouldn't part.While you were sleeping I gave to you my heart.

A poem that I Wrote to my husband before we got married.

I Love You

Have you ever felt,Like you were holding a fragile heart,

That could break any second,And then it shatters,

And you don't know how to fix it?Then your world goes wild,

With everything spinning but you,You stand still and stare at the moment,

Not knowing what to say,Not even paying attention anymore.

You want to say something to help the moment,But tears are saying enough.

I want to hold the pieces of your broken heart,And put it back to one.

I hold you close,Hoping you can forgive me,

For hurting you so badly,I tell you I love you,

And it's far from a lie.I cry on your chest,

Apologizing again and againYou finally pull me away and lift my face up towards yours,

I look into your eyes,Wanting to turn away,

But I'm forced by love to keep looking.And you say the three words I longed to hear:

I love you.You wipe away the tears,

Leaning forward to place a kiss upon my lips,

And you pull me away,

Holding me close as you can,You tell me once more at the same time I tell you:

I love you.

Awoke in Love

My friend once told meLove is like a dream

Strewn rose petal pathwaysAnd sand soft as cream

Blue green meadowsSprinkled with dew

Whispering windsThat whisper How d'ya do's?

Tall oaks with plain shadeBut enchanted lullaby's

Fruit full of flavorCornstalks and fireflies

I said plainly,Tis truly a lie!

Till he picked me up gentlyAnd we flew to the sky

I flew with him tilMy cheeks were bright as day

When the moon came up slowlyThe stars shooed the sun away

And soft as a breezeMy heart did flutter

When I stepped in the oceanAnd slipped like as butter

For I fell in a reverieFull of pixies and such

When Love did talk to meAnd whispered, I love you this much.

I love you like cherries

That burst in your mouth,

I love you like wisteriaThat blossom down South,

I love you like dolphinsLove to jump free,

I love you like tall pineSo high beyond that you can see,


7/36

I love you like a mountainLoves to drink from the sky,

I love you as sweet gentle truthThat betrays the worst lie.

But as I crossedThe green hills so favored

It is that moment in choiceI will forever savor,

For as I awokeIn the morning divine

I saw all the beautiesIn the bright sunshine

I awoke in loveAnd as I turned around

It was to see a smileI have yet not found

For as love is as mysticalAs mystical can be

It is my dream pleasantThat forever belongs to me.***************Forever

By LINDA K. RUPPENTHAL

I love you today andI will love you tomorrow

Just some wordsTo clear the sorrow

That will neverLeave my heart or yours

From this day forwardYou are so special to me

I love youWith all my heart

Always haveAnd always will

From family and friendsThat never end

You will always be with meAs I will always be with you

Until we cross the gates of heaven

Love of My Life

Like the stars in the sky,I am calling to you.

From the heavens above,I am looking for you.

In the depths of my soul,I will live and breathe for you.

Sadness dwells inside you;You have nothing to fear,

for I am next to you.I can feel your sadness;

Let me be sad for you,so you will feel love once again.

Worry not about life,let me worry for you.

You should always love life,for it is a part of you.

I'll be there when you fall,to catch you and say I Love You...

I will come 2 you

When you have know light to guide youand no one to walk beside youI will come to youwhen the night is dark and stormyyou won't have to search for mewhen you don't know how or whybut you have lost you wayhave now fear when your dreams are fallingI will hear your spirit callingand I swear I will be theresee even if we can not be together now and foreverand I swear that I will be therewe all need somebody we can turn tosomeone who will always understandso even if your soul is dieingand you need the strength to keep tryingI ll reach out and take your handfor I will come to you**************************8Taste

So there are certain songs I can't listen to,Because they tend to remind me of you.I can't walk anywhere near your house,Because I might see you around.I try, to forget your lies.When you decided to leave, you pulled apart my life.And I found out my heart was sewn to yours.When you pulled away, from your arms I was torn.Now some other girl can call the chest where I rested my head home.And she can tell her friends she is yours.But when we meet again we will nullify each other s feelings. And devoid past memories of ever loving at all.

Those blue eyes pierce my heart.Over, and over again.You kiss me in my dreams, but there is no feelingJust pain.Pain in my soul.Pain smeared on my lips.Pain allover your skin,

Pain when I breathe and in my writing.Because you were the one person I wanted to be with.I hope she treats you like a king, the way I did.Any girl you choose to love, will only see you taste of me.

You chose weed over meBy Jessica A. Snyder

I'm getting tired of youI don't wanna laugh.I just wanna cry all over again.You messed me up when you cheated.You chose weed over me.I can't forgive you.My heart needs time to heal.I don't need you or your weed.I can't love you anymore.You need to let go of me.You don't need me any wayyou have your weed to love.I was never your girl, you cheated.Now I wanna laugh at you.I wanna dry those tears all over againYou made my life better by leaving.Go love the weed.I have a new man to love me.Who won't chose weed over me.Now me and my man are goingto scream goodbye.

I need you

I need you,I need you because I love you,I love you because I care about you,I care about you because I miss you,I miss you because you break it with us,You break it with us for another chick,For another chick which I was better,I was better because I treated you better,I treated you better because I care about you,I care about you because I love you,I love you because I need you,I need you because I miss you.

NO MORE YESTERDAYS

No more yesterdays when all I did wasstand and cryNo more yesterdaysNot even caring to live or die

But then you came into my lifeAnd you made me seeThat the world around usIsn t such a bad place to be.

No more yesterdaysWhen the day was just another day.No more yesterdaysHating everythingIn every way

Because you took my by the handAnd you made me understandThat life is now worth livingAnd now, Im a happy girl.

No more yesterdays when it seemedThat the world was deadNo more yesterdaysWhen my heart only bleed.

Because now your all around meAnd my whole world is youNow there's no more yesterdaysBecause now, I ve got you.

Boyfriend Girlfriend PoemLoneliness

Does the fear of loneliness cause me to be with a person who hurts meDoes the fear of loneliness cause me to care for a person who only deceives meDoes this phobia cause me to dwell in the past, making it so hard to move onDoes this phobia cause me to depend on someone,Only to find out that that someone is independentIn reality, now I can't depend on anyone else, neither myselfIn my state of loneliness, everyone else is pairedAm I the only one who suffers by themselves?So should I be content with one who doesn't make me happyShould I be content with another who creates sadness?For if am alone, there is the possibility of emptiness in my heartIf I am alone, I see the impossibility of ever smilingI am afraid of being alone

The Way You Said

It s the way you said I Love You,the way you show you care.The ways you make me laugh and the way you hold me close.The night you asked me to marry you,the time we talked through the night.When I said I missed you,you said you didn't because I was laying next to you in your mind.That's the way it's been ever since,never to be without one and another.The way you make me feel.It's the way you make me feel that is unexplainable.Sometimes I think I'm in a fantasy,or maybe my dear god sent me an angel.Now I know it's no fantasy and you are no angelbecause you told me that night when I asked you if this was all real.You said yes baby girl and it feels so right.

Abused Mind

Abused MindWhy do you hate me with the passion that you doWhen I have done nothing to deserve this from youI think it's because you love me that you hit me soBut I will always love you, I hope that you knowIt's because you want the best for me that you beat me until I swellThat slight limp in my ankle stings, but I will never tellYou love me and that's why you make me cryI know the bruised will go away, and that's why I don't mindBut the bruises in my heart never seem to fadeI ease my pain and relax myself saying everything's okay

What I Know

I don't think you can ever see forgiveness,From me being so blind to how to feel,Don't ask me why I couldn't seem to acknowledge this,And why it took me forever to figure out.

Right now we're just living upside down,And my head's just telling me to turn my life around,From what I know, to what I've found,It's only my forgiveness singing out, hear how it sounds.

Because you don't seem to know or care,I can't stop if you don't let it start,What I know, is that I hate who and what I've become,We're down, hate to admit I tore your heart.

Can we stand to face and deal with reality?With all of the world hurting within,Through the eyes of this young girl,What I know, is that I can't forgive and forget.

I can and will learn to love again,Will I soon be free of these choking pains?From the photographs, laughs, and memories,To all the pain I shed, it's called poison rain.

I can't stand to think about or tell,The way you sucked me in, like a black hole,This hole so big, it hurt like hell,I'm just scared of what I know, of what I don't know.


22/36

Together

I like it when we talk on the phone, but I love when we're together and I'm notalone. I like when you say you love me when we're far away, but I love it when yousay it to my face. I like when you say I can't wait to have you in my sight, but Ilove it when you say let me hold you tight. I like it when you're concerned andsay what time should I be there, but I love it when you say I care. I like it whenyou say I miss you, but I love it when you say can I kiss you.


23/36

Forget That You Met Me

Why can't I forget you?Why can't I get you out of my head?Why can't I stop crying?Why do I feel dead?When we were togetherI felt so alive,and now I don t even knowif I can survive.I know you've moved on,because we haven't talked in a while,but I wont let you see me cryI'll just put on a fake smile.Just answer me this,did you really love me?Never mind I don t care,just forget that you met me!

Life Is Like A ....

If God is the DJ then life is the dance floor, love is the rhythm, and you are themusic.

Love is not about finding the right person, but making a right relationship. It'snot about how much you love each other in the beginning but how much love you havebuilt in the end.

What is meant to be will always find it's way.

Boyfriend Girlfriend PoemSo Much

With matching smiles and sparkling eyesYou can see them falling so hard.And you might want to warn them,That they could both walk away scarred,Or broken,Or maybe both.

With hands glued together,And breath in sync,Their fantasies overshadow reality,Leaving their cheeks pink,And hair windblown,And knuckles white.

So let them enjoy paradise for awhile.They can get wound up in each other.Because isn't that what we all wish for,Some one to grow old with?They can be happy one day after another.But love can sometimes end,But it can also last forever.

Sad Love PoemNever Again

He's walking away from me.His back is tense, and I know he's angry with me.I suppose he's got a right to be angry.He's looking back at me now with that look in his eyes.The look that says I've disappointed him again.I know I'm a coward for not even trying.He's been waiting twenty years,and I can't even try.

He's getting in his truck,Heading back to that empty place he calls home.Soon I'll have to go back to my own empty life,and wait for the next time we can see each other again.It's not so different from what we've done for the last two decades.Except, I have this awful feeling that something's going to happen.This feeling is so over powering,making it hard to breathe.

Every second takes himfurther and further away from me.I want to go after him.I want to beg him to stayand never leave my side.Why couldn't I just tell him what he wanted to hear?Why couldn't I just tell him I love him?

Instead, I say nothing.I do nothing.I just stand and watch him disappear,not having the courage to call him back.

A tear runs down my cheek.Somehow, I know,deep in my soul,I will neverSee Jack again.


28/36

Sad Love PoemLoneliness

Lonely man missing his wife.If you could shop for loneliness,would you shop alone?

Would you shop among many,or would there even be any?

And if you were to find loneliness,sitting there upon a shelf.

Would you be willing to pay the price,for the seclusion of ones self?

We spite the feel of loneliness.Although it is quite real.

We can't quite escape the darkness and self pity,that loneliness makes us feel.

Loneliness often makes us think of familyand mistakes we've made in life.

My loneliness comes most often,when I think about my wife.

Sad Love PoemLOVE IN DISTANCE

If distance makes the heart grow fonder,then let it keep our hearts from wander.Make me strong and build thyself,fix thy faults and lift mine health.Thy actions strange and not of old,for what is meant may be foretold.Look deeper to the fold of reason,betwixt the mode that makes our treason.Help me see what hurt I bear to thee,for love and life with you I see.Within thyself, an instrument of gold,most dear to me, myself, you hold.'Tis what you seek, and I of you.Make this your heart and key to truelove and freedom from our woes of fear.For you, my love, I hold most dear.

Sad Love PoemI'm lost without you

At first we loved, but not again.We met at the mall,and we talked ever since.We stood starring at each other,I wondered the time, we'dStand together. Holding handsas we walk down the street,I wondered when our lipsWould meet.My heart is broken, u seemto ignore, The pain Ihave, when u left me sore.Our love was strong In which now yourheart is blind to see, now I feelthat your love has forgottencompletely about me.Well all in all I'm heartbrokenWithout u by my side,I wish we could love eachother like we did that one time.

Friendship PoemYour Title

I felt so empty inside last night,When I didn't receive your call.

I felt like crying but instead...I laid there staring at the wall.

We've been through a lot this year together,And I know that it hurts to hear me reply

to your questions with WHATEVERI honestly don't think that I want to ever understand,

That we could never be no more than just friends.Is that what your title will always remain?

Because whenever I look at you, I don't feel the same.I took a picture of you and held it real close to my heart.

I prayed that we'd always be together.And yet, were falling apart.

I told myself that I wouldn't crywhenever you decided to let go.

And if you were to ask me if I cared about you,the answer would never be NO.

I love you FRIEND.And that title is all you'll ever be.

Instead I promise to never let you leave my heart or become a faded memory.Because I know that deep down inside, you will always be apart of me.

Dedicated to Keniyah.

Friendship PoemI Stand Alone

I stand alone,

I stand alone on this path to no where

Looking every which way for help

People see me for something i,m not

When I ask them for directions

They don't understand

So they turn their backs and walk away

I try to fallow them but can't catch up

So I then give up

And all hope is lost

I sit empty minded for as long as I can

And soon I can't take it anymore

I feel as though I don't belong

And I constantly think about if dying would be best

But.....

In that very same moment I change my mind

The figure came up and held out it's hand

Telling me it cares and that i'm not alone

I stand up strongly and give it a nod

It simply nods back

And together

We walk away side by side

Watching eachothers backs

Through the long path in nowhere

Until together

We reach

Some where

Friendship PoemFriends Forever

Friend poemsA friend is a treasure that everyone has

Sometimes they come, sometimes they passYour friends will stay if you don't betray or lie

Or leave them behindJust put this on your mind

A friend is what you needTo succeed in this life

In this world were you can't live you can't breathLife will be unfair but your friend will be there

To give you hope, and faithAnd a path that is right to take

This will lead you to your dreamsThat you never thought would come true

That is being friends forever with you.Sometimes you forget

What your friend has doneYou just stab them in the back

And leave them behindBut when it comes to them

And they don't do the sameYou just turn your back

And do it againBut one sunny day

You will be aloneThen you will realize

that all you once had is gone.
