Best Convicted Poems


Convicted
This situation seems quite dense
But don't make half the sense
But it happened two times in cadence
I'll try to shorten it so I won't trespass on your patience
So here's the deal
It's becoming hard to express how I feel
On the real
An unread love letter that remains unsealed
As...

The Convicted
The Convicted
For Haiti

I am the Niobic victim
Turned to stone
At the cry of the earth
And my hopes, lost in 
The cleft, captured by
A wayward earthquake

     Why me? Mother Nature
     Why do I deserve
     This...

Premium Member Tried and Convicted Child
innocent child
housed
on a homeless street
crowded
with abandonment
and disparity
is found guilty…
sentenced
to life’s fear
that today
will become
tomorrow
and tomorrow’s
tomorrows
will become next 
week…and…
and…
what the hell…...

Convicted
Treacherous fingers of discontent 
Threaten to strangle my dreams 
And stifle my right to existence. 
I stumble over vicious words, 
Fueled by spite and the rage 
Of misinterpretation, 
Designed to challenge my intent. 
I was summarily dismissed, 
Labeled a fraud, 
And relegated into obscurity; 
Judged...

Premium Member A Convicted Felon
If you Google ‘a convicted felon’
You’ll find the name of a person
Who’s rich, popular and flamboyant
You’ll see his original mug shot
Ladies and gentlemen, believe it or not
As we speak, this felon is dying to be president
Again, again, in order to avoid jail time
As we know,...

Premium Member Convicted Heart
My heart*, wholly convicted by God’s holy writ
Earnestly confesses its stubborn arrogance
Humbly acknowledging haughtiness’ engagements
Abased against futile glory-seeking pursuits.

This heart is now open to the Lord’s scrutiny
Surrendered for His gracious sanctification
Believing that nothing is hidden from His eye
Since He alone discerns the minutest intents.

With my...

Premium Member Wrongly Convicted
Accused publicly
Dragged through the mud
Stabbed in the heart
Pinned to the cross
Humiliated defaced
Forsaken on my own
No one to take my part
Or even listen to my side
I may as well be mute
The verdict has been cast
Everyone is satisfied
Except me voiceless faceless me
I’ve been thrown under the bus
They’ve...

Convicted
I spent 6 years terrified you'd find me in my slumber.
Petrified I'd come to find.. that death had called my number. 
I spent 9 months in hiding so you'd never know I'd conceived. 
Coming to the realization that I'd never be free.
From you...  
I...

are criminal lawyers good people when they allow the innocent to Be Convicted
no god would stoop so low,
to break a mind already fragile,
or put innocence in a cell,
let alone make it pay for some sinless crime.

there are ghosts who don’t leave,
they cling like smoke,
they stain a man’s skin
with the black of all he’s seen and felt—
screams sealed...

Convicted Heart
My enlarged heart
not bears anomaly ... lives full
of love ....
I'm a convinced cardiac
so I love from the heart
who makes me pulse strongly ...
I live with a festive heart,
full of songs and flowers,
always an opened garden,
a watercolor of colors ...!...

Self Realization
Too many ups and downs in the journey
Too much sweet, bitter and honey

Far far away long way travel
Crying for peace in front of the devil

Destructed abstracted undefined destiny 
Self-realizations in the middle of the journey 

Multi-personalities in a tourney 
Giving up and giving in convicted...
