A Phase Of Hopelessness In Regard To Love A Poem


I have phases
Where I think
All hope is lost.
Where I think
I will never find
The love I wish
And want.

When in such a phase
My heart is held
Much more securely
In my chest
Not on display
On my sleeve
For others to see
How uncharacteristic of me
But this way
It has to be
If only temporarily.

I can wallow
For what may seem
Years and decades
When in actuality
It is only days and weeks
For my loving need
Is not a dead thing
But one that lives
And breathes.

I have lots of exes
They are tucked away
Some not safely
Some eek out
Some ooze like blood
When a scab is picked.

Such exes they had
Their chance to grow
And sprout
Become a stalk
Worthy of Jack
But instead
Go the other way
And elicit
The squat euphemism.

I may be a pushover
I may be one to wish
Upon a flower
And blow it's petals
Reciting he loves me
He loves me not.
But I am also not
A neophyte
Or totally naive
Who believes that
Is the final say
In what is to come.

So phase of love
That I am enduring now
I will take what you
Have to show
I will learn your lesson
If only to have need
Of a refresher course
In the future
After I rebound
And find another love
That occupies me for a spell.
I guess I am not
Hopeless after all.
And this poem
Defeating the initial premise.
Giving hopelessness
The heave ho
Into the emotional waste bin.

Independently Romantic Sounds Better Than Lonely

I think we all go through a phase when we think everything is hopeless. If we are lucky it does not last very long and we soon move on to brighter horizons. I hope yours turn out to be brighter than bright!

In love you orbit
your own deep feelings
a comet soaring
sometimes to outer reaches
then swinging back
what brilliant light you cast
such beauty in the sight
of a comet pursuing love
under stars and above
of a comet pursuing love.

Thoughts in sensual pleasure to erotic writing writ.

ah....I feel this too. But do not express it quite in so lovely a way as you have.

Hang in there!
