Sad love poetry

Sad love quotes

Sad dimples on happy faces

Dark and sad things that refuse to smile

Sad love poetry

I am not going to write poetry about you

Sad love poetry is all I have left in me,

 It is what I will cling to and not give away

Every other part of me is embedded

With feels, smells, sights, sounds and tastes of you

But sad love poetry I will not give

I will not tell stories of sudden moments

Of knowing you and

Not knowing you

Smiling with you and crying on you because of you

I will not tell sad stories through my poetry

Stories of broken nails coated with shiny polish

Holding on to broken nails

Two happy people, smiling people, plastic people

Stories of she said, I said, they said, you said

He said, maybes, maybe nots, you heard wrong

I am sorry; it hurts me to hurt you,

She came on to me,

I am not gon write sad love poetry of our lame games,

hide and seek , make believe and tug of war

your heart hiding mine seeking

me making me believe-sending my heart to utopian island

one heart pulling away, the other holding on

I will not bleed my ink

To curve words with the color of pain in them

Curve them into sad love poetry

Sad love poetry is all I have left in me

I will house it in

And when am done

Smelling you, feeling you

Tasting you, seeing you, hearing you

When I remember the smell of lilies before you,

The soft touch of petals before you,  

I will draw drops of sad love poetry into my pen

And bleed it on this page

But now, I will not give you sad love poetry

It is all I have left in me
