How I Wish I Never Loved You? Poem by Lungelo S. Mbuyazi

How I Wish I Never Loved You?

Rating: 5.0


When I crushed into you,
My world swiftly crumbled.
Was I picking up the pieces?
On my knees begging you
To be my lover.

My gratitude in this
Regard for granting me.

I'm addicted to you
Like you're my own
Brand of heroine.
I've urged not to surrender
Even before the gun point;
How I feel hollow in your absentia!

I wish I never loved you

When I fell off
From your warm hands,
I set loose my being,
Like a leaf fallen off
From a tree;
Side by side, I flee
Far, far away, I fled.

My heart feels dry
In your absence

The more I distance myself
See! I fail to control myself;
Your gravitational love holds me
As if my heart were ferromagnetic.
I still feel it though.

Oh! I hate that I loved you!

I don't believe in wishes,
But, how I wish,
I could read through your mind,
Then, I wouldn't have to worry
About your thoughts of me?
For this, I pray:
May you ever never forget us,
And let our memories alive.

It's hard letting go for
I love you but I can't be with you

Another beautiful piece on the whimsical and temperamental nature of love, well articulated and elegantly brought forth from the heart. Sad tale of love told in eloquent finesse. A lovely creation. Thanks for sharing Lungelo and do remain enriched.

Thanks, my friend for your positive comments on my work..... Sometimes we love and forget the reality that that person will one day be gone and leave us with pains and grievance...

Love that is one way is truly a heartbreaking experience, more so when that love was once shared by both.
