Best Bottomless Pit Poems


The Bottomless Pit
From the bottom of an abandoned gravel pit
behind my childhood home, seated, 
leaning against its hardpacked sandy side,
he watched the July sun set,
the empty prescription bottle at his side.

Did he walk that day to his unnatural fate
slowly, shoulders rolling like a big cat,
alternating first one,...

Life's Bottomless Pit
Bankrupt and broke life has given to me
Endless contradictions with windows I see
What a shame that it is to be in this bind
However the outcome I'm losing my mind...

Yesterdays care gave out almost there
While trailing once more, lifes relentless wear
Has taken me down again and...

to empty my poor soul

Waiting for some sun
to chase my rain
for that I am not the one

Bottomless Pit
Hurled at the speed of light
Into a black hole
Into the fierce vaccum
Tumbling, twirling, twisting
Falling for a thousand years

Jerked up at that same speed
By that chain- feet first
With that same unbroken 
Primal scream
In fearsome terror
Surrounded by darkness
Dense enough...

Premium Member This Bottomless Pit
Nature is precious but at a time like this
How was it before we were pushed off the cliff
Days before the world
Was suddenly hurled
Into this deep and dark bottomless pit...

A bottomless pit can’t be filled
As if cast into the world, a flood it creates,
Yet still, the people fail to see their fates.
Though wealth may shine bright, filling every space,
Their hearts grow weary, losing hope's embrace.

The world has blinded them, lost in its maze,
They take the green paper as their...
