49 poems - don't read them all

49 poems by Julian

I wrote these poems in a funk about a woman who I thought loved me, but really had to be a good wife to someone else. I pray he appreciates her. She's been quite good to me so I wrote out of immediate anger & loss. It's not her fault my life is fucked up so please don't blame anyone but the author. He chose to do what he did & it's accepting the hand dealt to you.

Now, I want to pare down the best 7 or 8 for final posting at Literotica under my name “Julian” – see the link above.

Some are haiku’s, some are just free-form poems, and some are more blathering and ranting than any real semblance of honest art.

I wrote in a flurry and am hoping to make the best of my pain & silliness.

Critiques would be appreciated. Comment on any one you wish.

Blessings,

Julian

***

The further she is

The less I see of her smile

Easy to forget

***

Never forgotten always remembered

Wanted more than life itself

I’ll love you always

***

With me she had 2 husbands

It was easier to stay with him

Then to have to come to me

To have all she wanted

She only needed to be

rid of me – like a

bandage on a wound – RIP!

Discard and it’s over.

I am a discarded bandage.

Used, bloodied and forgotten.

***

I wonder if these notes even matter

Every day I used to get up knowing there would

be something

- a note

- a picture

- even a word

The text were always a surprise

Showing me you interrupted your day for me

My first visit was my first step

- and I was preparing for another

But you became what you wanted

- abandoned

- falling

- at the whims of others

You made my mornings better

You were a ray of sunshine

***

I wish I knew something

Maybe I’m a weak or bad fuck

or maybe I’m too

clingy

Not rude or cruel

Single faced, honest

wanting her to be happy

I wish I could have brought her to me, making her mine, alone.

***

A sleepless night

rough to handle

Toss in bed

miss her desperately

Waiting?

Knowing?

Needing?

Wishing?

Your head spins

Time is truly important

Life is a mess

Vacuum

***

You’re growing jealous

You feel amazingly lonely

All the plans

SMASHED!

All your dreams

DEAD!

All the future held

FUCKED!

You felt it inside you

That abandonment

Every time a dream gets close

- POOF!

Heartbreak ebbs from inside

Tears pour like blood

drop by drop

And you lack

She says she doesn’t love you

or she can’t

you’re not sure

the cacophony of humiliations floods your ears

She says she’s not looking for love

But said that to you daily

Hourly

In notes at odd moments

You wish you could dance

with her

Sing to her

Touch her again

You tasted ambrosia

You can’t go back to

tequila or wine

And beer means nothing to you.

Walk Run Fly

Cry Weep Scream

Talk Fuck Hate

Love Want Ache

She’s changed you in ways

You never thought possible

And yet

you’d trade your soul to

go back to the love you had.

… or thought you had.

***

I know I miss her

She gave me more than I hoped

I wish she would call

***

Do you ever think

that your sanity is not

a part of my heart

***

You ran from me

And I wanted to keep looking but

I would stop for you

***

I had hoped for a

Future where our dream came true

Now my dreams are dead

***

I felt really sad

When she asked me not to look

I doubt she cries now

***

Love is the Best Food

The heart needs it nourishment

May was my last meal

***

On-line I was it

The perfect fantasy lust

Reality sucks

***

In all my dull life

I was not chosen ‘til her

Now I’m tossed aside

***

Every day I

fight the desire to call you

I write to keep away

***

She is resisting

Then need to call me right now

Delusions save me

***

Easy to avoid me

Easy to ignore my words

I am not worth it

***

Long as I stay away

She thinks I can forget her

So impossible

***

Did I make her run

Or did I scare her away

Far between heartbeats

***

Always on my mind

She saturated my soul

I wish I had hers

***

She said she won’t leave

The situation she’s in

I would have for her

***

As much as my love

She was my sweet loving friend

I miss that part too

***

She has to want me

As much as I want her now

Like the last two years

***

She told me the truth

She would never lie again

And I trusted her

***

Two-K one way flight

Her arms held me so very tight

Should I not have gone?

***

Why did she give me

The notes gifts pics words and thoughts

It hurts to see them

***

Without me she has

All she could ever want to have

I wish I were there

***

Missing her is Hell

She made a Heaven on Earth

And now I’m so alone

***

Every morning I wait

Hoping for a chat from her

That will never come

***

Days always began

With my coffee and her chat

Now they are both stale

***

Do you now miss me

Does temptation rise to call

I fight mine daily

***

We were way too close

For the distance we dealt with

I miss you so much

***

I wish stealing you

Was still an option in life

But that wish is gone

***

You don’t need me now

You’ve done better that I hoped

I wish you were here

***

My dreams came true here

Every time you called or wrote

You gave me Heaven

***

Delete my old pics

I wish I could do the same

Your notes are my joy

***

You were never mine

I was never yours’ either

But I did have hope

***

You made my wishes

And even for a weekend

I treasure all that

***

She got way too close

And she’s not leaving her life

So I have to leave

***

I’d sell my very soul

Travel to the gates of Hell

To burn up with her

***

She says I should go

Sample the World and enjoy

But she is my world

***

You wanted to fall

Descend deep see the unknown

I wanted the same

***

I am pathetic

Looking for her even now

She does not look back

***

She prepared to leave

She had time to get ready

What a big surprise!

***

Money money cash

A way to have it all here

She’s never for sale

***

Steal a little dream

She made all yours’ come true

That’s why she is missed

***

It took so very

Little time to forget me

I am suffering

***

Poetry flies

verbal and emotional spasms of longing and despair

despair

sadness

humiliation … I ruined my life

Vulgarities pour out of me

Honesty, not familiar territory

and then comes the inner crushing

“Have I gone mad? Am I at the edge wanting something that

doesn’t want me? Like an alcoholic needing a drink?”
