Unrequited love Poems
Is this Love....
by Dammika Chandani
I feel his absence,
though I have not known his presence.
I tell you , its not a physical attraction,
but emotional connection .
I have neither looked into his eyes,
nor hugged him.
But have been touched
by his soul.
With his lyrical words

Dear Crush: Please, Please Don't Read This
by Sarah Turner
I don’t know what love is,
I don’t know how it feels.
Is it wanting your lips on mine?
Or is it something more real?
I’m confused,
I’m blowing this out of proportion.
It’s like I’ve never met anybody else,
Oh, god I’m so desperate.
Waiting for hours on end,
Consumed by my so-called fantasy.

Shepherd Lane
by J. P. Ehlert
I watch the midnight fog condense;
On Shepherd Lane I wait.
No stars assuage my solitude;
No winds dare stir so late.
But still I sit on Shepherd Lane
To linger with the dew.
Knowing well you’ve forgotten me,
But still I wait for you.
Dear Friend
by D. M. Dale
Hello old friend, how have you been?
Once so familiar- and now, where to begin..
Distance, time and space, gone from all- without a trace
A vision once shared, a life to live, fully prepared, gone now
But not forgotten.
Not forgotten.
How could it be, truly, that you and me, were never meant to be when we both believed we were so earnestly.

Shop Window
by Emma Queen
caught your attention through the shop window
your babydoll, that's me
lonely Aphrodite
awoken from your reverie
your babydoll, that's me
a one of a kind collectible
awoken from your reverie
but I've been taken out of my box

Unearth me or not, your choice
by John Hughes
No one wants to know me and unearth the beauty that is me
So why should I care about you
I’m someone that cares so much for the wrong people
But I’ve reached out to the others
We have decided that we don’t care to know you anymore
You know the worst thing you can do to a man is lock him in a cage and leave him with no one to speak to
The universe looks out for me, and it had to cage me because I was foolishly looking in the wrong places for love
It knew I would work endlessly and fruitlessly
But I’m caged looking for the keys to my heart but I hear the dead silence of you and my despair drums inside my brain
You’re torturers of great skill and I’m saying goodbye to you

Misplaced
by Aditi Hayaran
"I was affectionate and caring
making sure he felt loved.
Ignored everyone else for him,
Even after everything
Why he is always so grim?
I bought him flowers,
Cooked his favourite meals, and more
I loved him so much,
I poured my soul.
Why is it so tough?

Stay
by an observer
Come near do not take your gaze from mine
The heavens have nothing on the stars of your eyes
If you're willing take my hand. let our destinies entwine
If not then fear not for your company will grant me respite
A reprieve from the death of love unachieved
The loss of my heart to an unassuming thief
To be deprived of mourning causes even greater grief
So stay even if to leave if best as you may believe
Stay so your presence will shatter my deluded heart
Stay so your presence will not be granted a deserters part
......
A Desert Bloom
by Muhamad Parid
In arid lands, a rose so rare,
You bloomed, a wonder beyond compare.
Your beauty shines, a priceless treasure bright,
A jewel that illuminates my darkest night.
To love you's a fight I'm doomed to lose,
A hopeless quest, my heart forever bruised.
Your heart's a guiding light, shining afar,
In someone else's garden, where love's a shining star.

Forbidden idolization
by Zander K
Hearth ablaze in thine wretched flame,
myn voice shaded with echoes of the past.
The hart yearns in desperation.
For what cannot be true.
Moirai swathe myn leechman finger.
I swayed with his shadow,
The footsteps ring in eclipsed time.
Myn perception gleamed with webs of
Scenes brought about from faraway lands
