Barricade Poems - Poems about Barricade


BARRICADE

On scarred walls, memory torn apart,
Stones bleed the wear of harsh surrender,
Blood flows where echoes turn violent,
While disgrace suffocates all humankind.

Iron bites, the smell of lead commands,
Terrorist — the pain charged with disbelief,
In law’s name, peace is murdered outright,
Ashes speak, indifference is alliance.

Devouring colonialism, mask of innocence,
Justice bends beneath the shadow of pacts,
A martyr land,

   Below zero temperature 
     wind howls at my cheek
   I ponder braving the cold
     No, I shan’t even take a peek

   For it’s warm here by the fire
     with you at my side
  The hearth

Barricade

I forgot who I was and no longer know who I want to be
All I know is I have become a stranger
Who is this person who is supposed to be me

All of the dreams I once had faded away 
No longer important
Because I no longer feel the same way

All of the beliefs I once carried

Barricade Against Humanity

One fist in the air 
With a candle in the other
The wax melting status 
Of the lives that were smothered
Lining along with the march
If the cowardice was unseen
Then it was sure 
There was nothing left to bother.
In the memory of the fallen
A father lost his daughter
Dragged by the collars 
Her pain was greeted with laughters
With

Premium MemberBarricade the Sky - Night Owls Lament Iv

Barricade the hills against the sun.
It is coming,
to break down the doors of night
with a battary ram of fire and light.
It will break through the hills and towering trees
golden arrows ripping through the leaves
sending the panicked birds into the air. 
It has come to kill the moon
to put an end to dreaming
to dry the dust
and

I built my shrine ...
        My brittle heart, sheltered to hide
      Choked so often by trust's entangled vine
        Strong stones, placed side-by-side ...
  I raised each wall sound and tall for my castle keep

Language Barricade

On the community blog
I met this spaniad
Hello
Hi! Was the reply I got
Her profile captivating
My desire sprouted
What a beauty you are
An unspeakable clusters of letters displayed on my screen
What do you mean?
Hoping it was a mistake
But after repetition
I realised the boundary
We understood not ourselves
How I hope for a new lingua tongue
My heart wept
I couldn't express my

Barricade

The reason I build this impregnable wall not for comfort or safety 
I’m just sick of it all 
The lies so transparent tears all planned and staged 
Turns this man of joy and benevolence into a caldron of rage 
My thoughts you effect with such disregard spinning webs of lies 
Like a spider with ease

Barricade

Obstruction of emotions
No one can see
This person i crawl into
Hidden inside, it is me

A mental paralysis
Locked behind something carefree
See a true emotion
Invisible is the key

A psychological blockage
Shutting everyone out i please
To feel the pain, unheard of
A midnight summer breeze

To barricade all sensations
Good and bad aside
I resort to secrets
Holding in these tears i cried

An obstruction of

Barricade

each burdan that falls upon me i brush away
hoping like hell
that it will be diminished from my gaze
each burden that falls upon me builds up every time 
i brush it away not being diminished
just moved out of sight
each burden that falls upon me
i want to run from
yet it still hovers above me
mesmerizing my mentality
each burden

Only At the Barricade

Only at the barricade
Shall our scores be settled

Only at the barricade
Shall they hearken to our cry

Only at the barricade
Shall our strength be more strengthened

Only at the barricade 
Shall they be forced to shiver and quiver

Only at the barricade
Shall they handover our hangover

Only at the barricade
Shall the slaves look straight into the eyes of their masters

Only
