Best A Hollow Soul Poems
AbandonmentEmbraces shatter leaving timeless stories
Wrapped in butterfly nets, tied with velvet ribbons
Tangled cob webs and ghost blankets
Restless feelings and Kodak moments
Wasting into forever
Alone, rotting in the pantry
Forgotten happiness buried by sorrows
Telling tomorrow yesterday’s lies
A hollow soul searching for absent pieces
Going nowhere, tires spinning...

MonotonyWORK SLEEP REPEAT
WORK SLEEP REPEAT
THE SAME OLD SORRY STORY
THE SAME MONOTONY
EVERY DAY THE SAME
NO FUN NO JOY NO CHANGE
ALL I WANT IS TO BE FREE
OF THIS DAMN MONOTONY
MY HEART HAS NO FULLFILLMENT
I'M JUST A HOLLOW SOUL
GOING THROUGH THE MOTIONS
AS I...

Ballad
Web of clever liesIn shadows deep where truth does weep, There lies a figure, veiled, asleep. A hypocrite, with words so sweet, Yet actions cold, deceit complete.
With lips that part in righteous guise, They weave a web of clever lies. Their tongue a blade, sharp and keen, But...

The Dog, the Bear, and the MaggotThe Dog is structured,
Always working to preserve,
Familial ties.
Diligent service,
Loyal to love and country,
Strong yet still servile.
The Bear is nurtured,
A hunter in fair weather,
Useless in winter.
Promises plenty,
But bleeds his own forest dry,
Water, trees and all.
The Maggot is cankered,
A hollow soul and stomach,
Skulking forest floors.
Can only scavenge,
ON...

Great Big WordsI'm really quite confused
About this thing we love
I'm talking about our poetry
That's sent from God above
Sometimes we write simple words
For all can understand
While others write elaborately
With their dictionary close at hand
Well I've never been a genius
And some words I've never seen
These words just drive...

Driving Me CrazyTears like Rain,
That pour from Pain,
Asking God to Hold Me and keep me Sane......
A Hollow Soul,
And a Empty Vessel,
Is all of me, that Remains......
But yet, Day after Day,
I Stride and Try Hard to Maintain.....
For there's a part of me that wants to stop,
I'd felt as...

''The Devils' Own''Who are you?-Shared curse.
Marked in malice as vengence burns.
Lost eyes creep the stare of stone.
Breathe fire to speak words that shatter glass.
Let forbidden truth emerge.
Your wicked silence tells the tale of a hollow soul.
You are a product of sickened disgrace.
I need only forget your face.
Bring...

The CreatureWay back when, many years ago;
In the midst of the Sixties, spread your legs, let's go!
An injustice was created,
with a Hollow soul to lose...
A decade and a half later,
no belief of a Creator;
The tortured child he had become,
again was...

A Spider PumpkinA spider’s nest
They all crawl out
Scared to death
The fear is all yours
When they walk on you
There’s a loud scream
Looking for its source
You find it’s you
Spider pumpkins line up
They all have a face to carve
Calm eyes with fierce mouth
Lighting their hearts
They glow from within
They are lit
With...

Letting GoI thought of a thousand words,
None came out.
Like burnt rubber,
Dry as charred toast
I chocked on letters,
As if nails lined my throat.
I swallowed my brokenness.
My neck bent, heavy from the crown.
I would walk away with nothing,
My loses came with the bet.
Decisions filled with consequences.
Angel wings dipped...

Brilliant BlasphemyBurnt like tongues,
in our steaming soup.
Now this taste,
is of ashen anticipation.
The wasted walls of youth
decaying
In due damnation
the very writer of the law,
Indeed the first to break it.
Innocence like spiders,
distressed
when webs were shaken.
ATHENA!
ATHENA!
stripped in naked virtue.
endless clout about you,
and a hollow soul before you.
Filled...

Peace Not WarJust trying to live life in peace
The bullies bring you to your knees
They send the fickle off to war
Not knowing what they are fighting for
We hear what they want us to hear
We fear what they want us to fear
Like animals that are penned
They...

The Person I Used To Be
She lived in shadows, where light felt too bright
And joy was something spoken of,
But seldom felt or experienced, something
That most of the time, meant reaching for another,
Another’s joy, though not hers,
She hoped might, somehow, rub off
Blot out some of her pain and doubt,
Lift...

Kiss of DeathShe traces her finger along his lips
And smiles with satisfaction
The poison leaves him paralyzed
Just another fatal attraction
She lures them in with her beauty
And keeps them with her kiss
She looks for those who no one knows
A stranger they wouldn't miss
A female Jack the Ripper
But no one...

Sad SongsThere's something about those sad songs
That make us want to cry
Written when hearts are broken in two
When someone says goodbye
They play them on the radio
To remind us of our pain
It takes us to an empty place
A place, we can't explain
Sometimes it's just a memory
We never...
