You Poems
If Only You Were Here... (Keep The Thought)
by Anisha Nyambe
If only you were here…
hold onto that thought and say
"I am here, " while your head is still in the clouds.
Hold onto that thought and say, "I am here"
while all the stars surround you and conceal your scars.
Hold onto that thought and say, "I am here"
while wanting is enough for me to live on.
Hold onto that thought and say, "I am here"
while you're dancing in pointed shoes away from your world and mine.
Hold onto that thought and say, "I am here"

In Memory of You
by Jayesh Jain
So long, those messages begone
never-ending, thoughts forgone
in a box of some chips and wires
those sore thumbs and heart's desires.
Not mind the artist
but oh-so curious of colours,
getting us to paint, a canvas, a another world
where under late moon, around talks of star's shine
those details on and about living life

Serenity
by Nhz Tznh
Silence used to be my prison,
a place and a moment from long ago
that made me feel the most anxious,
Most unsafe and broken.
And back then, it was as if light vanished.
Time flew, things changed.
Silence is now my escape.
My haven, my comfort.

Delicate
by Elizabeth Sorrell
Emotions, none the same
More or less sensitive
Affecting all differently
Involving the way we cope
Can kill us or make us stronger
Every time you get hurt
A small, tiny piece
of your heart,mind,or soul follows
Rather the situation be big or small

Her
by Tom F
Her
Her in the waiting room that stands out for all the wrong reasons, but don’t worry she’s too tall to be. Her on the train with the big blue eyes that don’t sparkle like.
Her in the bar wearing the same perfume as. Her in a photo with a big colourful scarf that I know ’d love.
Her over there with the blonde hair that makes me double take just to make sure it’s not. Her at the concert dancing and singing like there’s no orrow. Her exploring and taking pictures just like used to do. Her in the cafe booking her next adventure away which is something she loves more than anything, just like.
My life revolves around her, cant you see? Everything.
I hate that I notice her all the time.
She will always be her, but never be, you.

You
by Jupiters Angel
Let your book talk
your pages should talk.
A rose that never bleeds
broken windows can not feed.
Take stock the winters fed
new seasons lie ahead.
Past thorns irritating pawns
lest worry roses and corns.
A life to cart
memories to part

You exist
by Sabit Ince
YOU EXIST
I broke my repentance in my heart like a glass
If I had known, I would never have asked, I would have asked your name.
when i saw that face i became an idol
You are not tuned in songs, you are on the lips.
You offer me the sun in glasses like the moon,
please don't hide, turn your face to me
be mem in my glass, let me drink it to the blood,
You are on the earth, in the sky, on the moon, you are in the mountains.

You!
by Michael R. Burch
These are poems about relationships, with lovers, family members, and a God (real or fictitious?)
You!
by Michael R. Burch
For thirty years You have not spoken to me;
I heard the dull hollow echo of silence
as though strange communion between us.

You
by Nastasimir Franović
Your skin is moist like sand touched by the sea foam
Your lips are like two coves, wave like the sea of words.
Right in my ear.
You shameless and all that you said
How many times have you lied to me and I believed you?
I believed your every word and would listen more!
I wouldn't get tired because a lie comes off your lips so easily.
You will cheat and leave.
I will stay listening to the echo of your words.
It will ring from your lips like a shell pressed to the ear.
