Love’s Trigger

A Classic Love Story
I can't seem to stop thinking of you

I can't close my eyes 

Without seeing your smile

Your laugh

Your sparkling eyes

And the way you looked

When I found you with her

And you saw the gun in my hand

Love sure can trigger

The worst in us...

Once more, I am unable to find a fitting title for this poem but this one will have to do for now. I sort of hate it but I hate it the least from all the other titles I’ve come up with so far so I’m just going to go with it. Please give me some title ideas in the comments and my favourite one will win a million dollars! In hugs and not actual money…

Edit: I loved ALL your title ideas but in the end Tre won with “Love’s Trigger.” 🤗

  1. I think the title is very fitting, Pooja!

    1. Thanks, I’m glad to hear that!

      1. The title is fitting.its exceptional

  2. Just call it can’t. Maybe even memories

    1. Those are both great suggestions, thank you.

  3. The title scared me. I thought you were saying goodbye to us on WP. I would call it Trigger or Love Sure Can Trigger, but I always title things as short as I can so they are easy to read online. So Trigger. And the word trigger is on trend these days. Do I win a million hugs?

    1. I wroth the same thing. The title scared me too 😅.
      How about Triggering love?
      Or love trigger? 😛

      1. So many young people use the word trigger as a “safe” word that I try not to get triggered by it. 😛

        1. Here trigger can be of 2 meaning
          1: getting triggered- riled up
          2 or the trigger of the gun.
          Which one do you suggest? 😅

    2. Sorry about that, it seems I scared quite a few people with my title. I had scheduled it a while back and forgot about yesterdays post lol. Those are great title ideas so yes, you get a million hugs coming your way!

      1. A million hugs back!

  4. “Love’s Trigger.”

    And I love the poem!

    1. I love that- you win the hugs!

      1. Haha. All right now! I love hugs! Lol. Thank you! 👏🏾🙌🏾👌🏾

  5. One Bullet?
    Two Bullets?
    No Bullets Left?

    Something closer to the actual imagery in the poem. Specific details.

    Looking forward to your final choice.

    1. Those are good ideas, thanks so much.

  6. “Finito” Italian for … finished. 😉

    1. Hmm interesting, I like it a lot 😊

  7. Some people really leave their mark on our consciousness – beautifully captured Pooja

    1. Absolutely and thank you so much.

  8. “Painful affection” , “I love you, till you die” , “till the death do us apart “, “love cannot kill, but gun do” 🤪
    .
    Your title gave me heart attack. I thought you are extremely pissed with the wp. 😨
    .
    Hey, btw, I have a title suggetion if you can work a poem on it, that would be cool. 😛
    “Magic in the rain”
    “Apocalypse”
    “Unforgivable love”
    “Love is magic, but I don’t believe in fantasy “.
    Sorry, I’m just in a fun mood 😅

    1. I know! I had to open it real quick and make sure she wasn’t shutting things down…lol

    2. Those are all great titles. 😬

      Lol sorry about that, I noticed I scared a few people in the comments with that title- didn’t realise it wasn’t the best idea after yesterdays post 😂

      Those are great too, I’ll keep them in mind for future poems 😊

      1. I swear, I was terrified. I saw the notification and I thought you took some dangerous decision. Dude at wp pissed you too much 😅

        1. Lol I’m not going anywhere unless I get kicked out 😂

          1. You getting kicked out of wp
            Is like sun getting kicked out of the space. ☀️
            Kindly keep sharing

            1. I’ve been kicked out before, this is my second blog 😂

              1. I have so many questions regarding that 😱. I will ask them in your next guiding blog.

                1. Lol no worries 😂

  9. Love this poem. Love Trigger seems to work as a title too. 🙂

    1. That’s a good idea, thank you 😊

      1. My pleasure! 🙂

  10. I think your title is fitting Pooja. Another option could be Trigger!
    I get from this piece that there truly is a thin line between love and hate. It’s raw and vulnerable. Good one.

    1. Thanks so much and that’s a good idea!

    1. Great suggestion.

  11. Modern Romance…?

    1. Ooh that’s a good one!

  12. Loved this, Pooja.
    Keep writing👏

    1. Thank you so much. 😊

      1. You’re welcome!!

  13. Nice. strong emotions catch up in the line.

    1. Thank you so much.

  14. Aww so romantic and sad! Love it. As a title, I would say maybe: “Pulled my Trigger” or “Please Renounce My Mind”

    1. Thanks so much and those are great suggestions!

  15. Love this cause it reminds me of a song I once was obsessed with, but this is a simpler version. Also, “The Trigger” is a nice title. I think.

    1. Thank you and that’s a great title idea.

  16. Love the poem!!!!

    1. Thanks so much!!

      1. ♥ ❤️ ♥️

  17. Loved the poem.. Keep sharing us more poems…

    1. Thank you so much 😊

  18. Gees Pooja don’t do that to me! I saw “Goodbye” and your blog name on the Reader and I literally stopped chewing my breakfast, I was like “wait, WHAT?” Lol. I’m thinking “Final Thoughts” or “Our Final Moments” but I’m still pre-caffeine so you could still have plenty of good ideas from other sources.

    Also definitely didn’t just reveal how dark and twisted I can be 🤣

    1. Lol sorry! I’m just realising after reading all the comments that the title wasn’t the best after yesterdays post 😂 See, I told y’all I sucked at titles 😜

      We all have a dark twisted side 😉

      1. Ah no, perhaps not your finest hour 😂

        Oh I know, but like you said, it’s what makes life more fun 😉

        1. Haha very true! 😜

  19. Good Afternoon

    Baban Zarah Na Kauran Bauchi Tv – Chat @ Spike

    1. Good afternoon.

  20. I enjoyed this poem even though it touched home for me. I might title it, “Death And Deception”. What do you think?

    1. Thanks so much and I love that title idea.

  21. Love does make us do weird things. And your poems are just❤️🔥🔥🔥

    1. It sure does and thank you so much 😊❤️

  22. Powerful stuff! My title suggestion would be “Till Death do us Part’

    1. Thanks so much, and I was actually thinking that till I realised I have another poem with the same name!

  23. 🤔….Lilith’s choice

    1. Ooh that’s a good one 🤔

      1. I’d bear the blue sky for a hug🌹🤗

        1. Sending lots of hugs your way 🤗

          1. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🌹🌌 Thank You so much dear Pooja🌈🤗🌹

            1. 🤗🤗🤗

  24. Love can make you act strange as hell!!!

    1. It sure can!

  25. Nice one Pooja! Broken comes to mind. xxoo, C

    1. Thanks and that’s a great suggestion.

  26. oooh love the story and the play on words. hmmmmm

    -straight to the heart
    -Heartsick
    -No turning back
    -Bullseye

    1. Thank you and those are awesome suggestions!

      1. You’re welcome. Yours is still the best. but maybe it will help somehow.. 💖

        1. Aww thanks! I think your suggestions and everyone else’s are much better 😊

          1. We always think that about our work-:(. But feedback is great!!

            1. True, we’re always harsh on ourselves but yeah feedback helps!

  27. You remind me of those stories in the news, in which a gun shot is the final farewell of a love…

    1. Yeah there are so many of those stories. Sometimes I wonder if murder is really easier than a breakup or divorce. I never understand why people take that option.

    1. As the title 😉

      1. That’s a good one 😊

  28. Beautifully written 🤷

    1. 👏👏👏*
      Stupid WP that doesn’t let you edit comments 😒

      1. We really need that edit feature 😂

    2. Thank you! 😊

  29. Wow, Romance here is in the air. Such a lovely and emotional poem about love😍🔥🔥💯

    1. Thank you so much 😊

  30. This is great. I didn’t see your twist coming again!

    1. Haha, yeah I do like twist endings!

      1. You don’t do them so much that I expect to see them coming. So you managed to surprise me twice in a row. That said, twist endings are great and you do a great job with them! I always enjoy your writing.

        1. Thanks so much, so glad you enjoy my posts!

          1. You’re welcome! Thank you for sharing it.

            1. My pleasure!

  31. on point.
