#selfless poems on Hello Poetry

damsel in distress Jul 2015

it is so hard to forget the pain you've caused me
but i did
it is not right to still believe in you after all those promises you've broke
but i still do
only fools will give up their dreams and happiness just for love
yes, i am a fool
you were everything that is bad for me
but i am still coming back for more
people were asking me why
i said because i love you
and that i will do it all again for you

when did i stop caring about anything but you?

If your thoughts about yourself count on peoples opinions,
Life will be very hard for you;
Progress nearly impossible
And success very unattainable,
You have to define yourself,
Let your good opinions about yourself stand strong and unshaken as though they are facts,
Esteem yourself highly but not at the expense of other peoples dignity,
Have integrity,
Don't take others for granted,
Don't use people,love them.

I Am Ready To Live Without You

If you'd want to live with my ghost,
I am ready to live on after dying,
You just be here as my host,
I promise to be your haunting,
If you need me then I'm surely here.

If I'm an unbearable pain someday,
I will not only give you space,
Yet staying by your side,
I will then **** my vain pride,
If I must one day live without you.

If that day must surely befall on me,
I am ready to live without you,
You promise to be happy,
I am beyond the aches of love,
If it's needed to prove my true love.

Divine selfless love

Smothering Selfishness

I will never understand the ease with which
People think of themselves rather than others.
They walk over people with a smile on their face
And do not realise just how much they smother.

Another Chance

You hurt me
But I endure the pain
You bring me trouble
But I always make things work out
You ignored me
But I didn't care
You made me cry
But I wipe up all the tears
You left me
But I'm still holding on
And if you ask me why?
It's because I don't want to lose you
It's because you're too precious
It's because you make me happy
It's because I love you
Call me selfish
Call me bad names
I don't care
I won't care
Because all my life
I've been so selfless
For my own good
So now that this happened
Can I be selfish just this once?
And give us another chance

Going through so much emotional (fandom) problems atm....
If you're an EXO-L, you would understand.

Never Me.

And I said:

When you push her down,
I'll make sure she'll fall on me.
When you break her heart,
I'll make sure I will fix it all.
When you make her cry,
I'll make sure I'll wipe her tears.
When you leave her alone,
I'll make sure I am by her side.
And if you abandon her for good,
I'll take her in forever.
But you need to remember
That even if your actions destroy her
And I am the one who is always fixing her,
Her eyes will always be on you.
Her heart will always be with you.
And her mind
Will always be filled with thoughts of you.

It will never be me.

Wrote this a long time ago and i found it today. Tim, John and Savannah.

Selfish

If I were to
collect all the stars
to fashion them into a necklace,
you would slap me on the head
and tell me to return them.

If I were to
steal the moon
and turn it into a comb,
you would toss it back into the night sky
right where it belongs.

I would never be able to
turn the sun into a ring.
I would burn myself before touching it.
But I know you'll berate me,
scold me,
while leading my blistered palms
towards the sink.

I do these selfish things,
steal the treasures of the sky,
thinking that they would make you happy.

I forget that you smile
when you share these treasures
with seven billion other people.

PINNACLE LADDER

Today I gazed into the mirror
Realized I'm, I've been and
Different will forever be.
I realized something else
That somewhere out there
There's someone like me
Living within his own confines
Better versions of everyday
He constructs and life redefines
Someone who thinks reality is wrong
And dreams are for real
Someone who once struggled against the wheel
And realized it’s got a stronger will
Someone whose weakness is their strength
Someone who always goes alength
Someone who knows that the normal Train left
While they in the day slept
So they have to wake all night
To think, imagine fight and write
Someone who knows the past is abreast
That they can surf the wave of life to her crest
For while others are in motion
There's always them at rest
And that fact addressed
Now embrace that notion
Someone whose cyclone is cynical
Going past the usual pinnacles
In a struggle to being a pinnacle ladder
Someone working ****** harder
Someone different but feeling no shame
Knowing our differences make us the same

Ah! That's Pretty Hurtful!

We were having a good time
Or at least I was.
Then she said she lost her confidence
Not just one area
She said in every field
Even the fields she used to excel
And she thinks I am responsible
Some way or other I made her lose her confidence
Self-belief and self-worth.
I demean her all the time.
And it was there from a long time
She even had to consult her sister.
But she dare not talk with me
Am I that fearsome?
Did I not make her feel comfortable?
Everyone else could see it clearly happening in her
Except I who happens to her boyfriend
Unfortunately for her.
Do I need to change something?
Or is it something that can’t be fixed?
‘Cause it is just the way I am.
But I won’t be the reason of her downfall.
If it does not work, I will probably leave her for good.
I want her to flourish and live her dreams.
I can’t be selfish with her.
