1. Pain's Bitter Sting
In the depths of despair, where shadows dwell,
a pain poem emerges, a tale I must tell.
For pain, my dear friend, is a universal theme,
a haunting melody that shapes our dreams.

Getting up in mornings for my usual day,
Though I really I just sit and think and lay,
It's hard, sometimes.

Famous Poem
When I compare
What I have lost with what I have gained,
What I have missed with what attained,
Little room do I find for pride.
Famous Poem
Your life is your life
Don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
Be on the watch.
There are ways out.
A single flash of a camera
And a moment frozen in time
Can never truly tell the tale
Of that child left behind.
Famous Poem
It ain't the trees that block the trail,
It ain't the ash or pine;
For, if you fall or if you fail,
It was some pesky vine
I look around for myself,
But a ghost is all I see.
I only see this ghost of a person I used to be.
I don't know who you are, but I know why you are here.
We gather here once more
To remember a younger day,
When life was mostly before us
And the future a game to play.
Famous Poem
Did you tackle that trouble that came your way
With a resolute heart and cheerful?
Or hide your face from the light of day
With a craven soul and fearful?
Tummies flat and waists so tiny,
Perky breasts and cleavage shiny,
Photoshopped into 'perfection,'
On display for our inspection.
You look at me and only see the cracks,
Fractured, like a piece of glass.
Some are shallow and straight,
I feel as if I'm teetering
High above a dark, black hole,
And it's taking everything I have
Not to lose control.
Adversity brings out the best in you
It often helps to find something new -
A hidden talent or clears a doubt
Thank you for commenting on my poem. Stay blessed.
You could have given up,
but you kept on going.
You could have seen obstacles,
but you called them adventures.
Another good one! I enjoyed it very much. And I think most of us can relate; I know I can. Thanks for sharing.
sometimes I wonder
why life feels
so uphill most of the time.
but maybe
There is
a strength in you
you haven’t even
begun to find.
So true in that we really don't know how one will react until one has been there and has done it! Suffering is an important life experience. Great poem, thanks.
You’re not alone in this; you know that, right?
There are others like you.
Hiding. Running. Wishing
for a desire they keep hidden
I hope you find peace in your battles
I hope you find light within the darkness
I hope you find comfort in your storm
I hope you find your smile within the tears
Sometimes I can't find the words
That fill my messy head.
Can't find the effort to smile
Or get out of my silly old bed.
Few words to explain me. Thanks, dear. You are not alone.
I know there's something great in me,
Something I struggle to find.
The days and months keep passing
As I lie here, stuck in my own mind.
The future of tomorrow seems so far away. Sadness filled my heart the day you walk away. I remember the little games we played with the memories that I have from yesterday. The future of...
