Hurricane
Biting winds, so fierce and strong.
Emptyness that feels so wrong.
Lonelyness gone on for to long.
Lost in a world of fear.
My heart once full of love and light.
Was destroyed one cruel night.
Trapped in an emotional blight.
I can no longer shed a tear
Hope once welled from deep inside.
Knowing you loved me filled me with pride.
But on that night my heart had died.
You made me hate the words I long to hear.
A storm now lives inside my heart.
It is slowly tearing me apart.
Shot with a poisoned dart.
I long to smile and cheer.
When I was with you I had no fear.
I knew you were always near.
When in trouble you would appear.
I was as happy as I could be.
Then you took it all away.
Shattered my heart as if it were clay.
Now I really hate that day.
It’s when you said you no longer loved me.
I lied and said “It’s okay.”
I let you go to live your way.
But I really hate that day.
That’s when my heart wanted to die.
You said we’d still be friends.
But this friendships hit an end.
No help from you, no lending a hand.
I really want to cry.
You took my heart cast me aside..
You stole my heart, my soul, my pride.
On that day my old self died.
Heart squashed like an bug.
Now you’re out of my life.
No longer causing me any strife.
Though the memories of you hurt like a knife.
I could really use a hug.
this hurts. you do know how to write. how to write pain. however i read your previous poem and thought that you are happy as can be. what happened to that soulful joyful poem?
@Philippe. No, nothing bad has happened. Everyonce and a while I see or hear or watch something and I just become very emotional. It is a little embarassing as sometimes I have little or no reason, but I cry. So I come here a pour out my heart into some of my poems, washing away the grief. And to be honest, I write depressing poems better than happy ones.(at least I believe so) Happy ones are hard for me, as they hardly sound good to me when I write them. While more depressing ones can release my anger, and sadness I feel everyonce and a while.
there is also one author here that i like. you seem similar, in writing pain i mean. great that you are great. if only i can write i would do the same. but all i can do is read. especially now. i feel so down. and i don’t know how to release all the pent up emotions inside me.
i can especially relate to these lines:
Thatโs when my heart wanted to die.
You said weโd still be friends.
But this friendships hit an end.
No help from you, no lending a hand.
I really want to cry.
right now i feel like a fool for believing with my whole heart. and im a bigger fool for not regretting it.
@philippe: thanks for the compliment, and everyone is different. When I am alone, I sometimes sing a little to let go some of the emotions. Try singing, or drawing, or something you enjoy that can help free your heart of such emotions at the same time. But keep trying poems if you like them. Choose a simple pattern and fill in the lines with your heart, any and every emotion.
I used this pattern:
A
A
A
B
C

Sometimes you just need a doorway, a path, to let yourself empty your heart.
And don’t feel like a fool, some people out there can play a heart like a violin. Never regret what you did, only regret what you didn’t do (I know this is a quote, but I can’t remember who first said it). And you should believe with you whole heart, just always have your guard up, as life can throw some painful things at you.
And never stop looking for love. You will find it ๐
im going through some tough times and these poems help me get by. i really have to let go of such emotions. i feel like im going to burst. sometimes i feel like a fool actually. i came to realize how unimportant i could be. and all this time i was thinking that i was part of something.
im not the type who says whats on his mind online. rarely do i comment on poems either. maybe im that empty right now. but know that i appreciate your work.
I am glad these poems are helping you, and I am sorry to hear you are going through such a hard time. And letting go of the emotions is hard, but I believe you will suceed. And you’re not unimportant, don’t let others trick you into thinking that. Everyone is important, even if they don’t know or see it. And I am glad you spoke your mind, I enjoy talking to you, and saying what you feel always helps ease the pain. And I am glad you like my poems. ๐
But don’t give up, try and let go of the past and look to the future, it is much brighter.
Amazing. Fantastic. WOW.
great poem
very elegant
i love it
^_^
@Yazzy & pixie: Thank you! ๐
i think this poem is beyond amazing i can relate to all of it and it feels almost like what happened to me and i really like that quote its beyond amazing too everyone one is different but we all have the same emotions and one way or another they will show but i prefer to let in and let them out it feels good to experience these emotions even if you don’t like them. Thats why you should be open to new experiences or what else will you discover but thats just my opinion.
