broken life memories memory musings nostalgia philosophy poetry tyger

Tie up tidal waves and fold them under
Dim the Lightning and hush the thunder
Let every grace; your heart allow
and spin your temper into peace somehow 

This question poking in your ribs
That Drives your hatred of grave and crib
is that same knife which brings a bitter end
To many tormented souls of men



Poetry about struggling with the reasons for life.

Whispers of Hope by longchickenwings

In the quiet moments when darkness consumes all that we know, we are left with whispers-silent echoes of a past we cannot escape. A heart burdened by loss, a soul shattered by cruelty, yet still, there lies a flicker of hope, a chance to change the course of fate. For even when the world turns its back, there are bonds that form in silence, promises made without words, and love given without expectation. But fate, as it always does, remains a cruel force, pulling away what we dare to hold close. And in the end, we must ask ourselves: Can we ever truly outrun destiny, or are we simply meant to endure the whispers of hope that linger, fleeting as they may be?

Spoken Word #2 (2018-2020) by CerealMilkKiller

Book number two on the poems that I have written, and will continue to write. Its really the only thing I know how to do. Sometimes I feel is if its the only thing I know how to do. While I stay silent .. Physical words are so hard to speak, All I can do is bleed onto the pages. Come stay awhile and listen, read the pain that I speak about. If you don't agree you are not required to stay.. What I post is considered obscene, but I want you to know, That Includes Watt-pad. That I refuse to be censored.. "If you are allergic to opinions you should just walk away.." -Tom Mcdonald. All I want is for you to connect with the words that are in these pages.. I am stopping hiding what I have inside.. I quit.. I quit trying to dim my light so others have to squint... to see..

Nostalgia | ✔ by lullabells

Highest Achievement - #7 in poetry [Oct 3, 2016] ~Nostalgia~ It's delicate, but potent. The pain from an old wound. A twinge in your heart.. Far more powerful than memory alone A feeling of a place Where we... Ache To Go Again. -My thoughts. My words. You'll be charged before God if you copy so think before you do it. I can forgive anything but my poetry means THE WORLD to me. :)- Publishing date [July 20, 2016] Ending date [September 15, 2019] Ranking on the last update: #391 in Poetry, #10 in poesia and #3 in poesie #18 in Poetry [January 7, 2021] #44 in Poetry [August 19, 2021] Featured at @WattpadPoetry

Poems by lia0924

Full of poems that I've written, am writing, will write. Maybe mostly about life and others are deep stuff and more... Some are happy and some are sad/dark. Some poem(s) I wrote about or related to a book/movie.etc. Others I wrote as a story in poem form. *checked my old poems recently and GORE, HORROR, BLOOD ALERT for some of the poems near the beginning!! SO maybe best to read my poems from bottom to the top if you mind the stuff^^^ *I think the more recent poems are quite different from the older ones. Some poems you can interpret as you wish :) Hope you'll like the poems!!! Leave a vote if you want or comment your favourite lines or any thoughts about the poem :D Earliest poems date back from March 2018 P.S. sorry for misspelled words and lack of punctuations in the first few poems. And, if you think the poem is about you, do not ask me. Because I will neither admit nor deny ;) Achievements in my eyes(DD/MM/YYYY) 1.01K reads~15/07/2020 1.34K reads & 78 votes~17/052021 1.47K reads & 108 votes~09/072021 1.68K reads~03/032022 2.01K reads~15/112022 2.33K reads~25/07/2023 (Thank you readers!)
