Best Defenseless Poems

I am just a swollen bloated thing in this harsh world
Nothing here but the laws of physics upon me hurled
No safety, power, decision is mine as I am uncontrollably twirled

Under and over and across the sweltering haze
Never before feeling, always fleeing from the gaze
Now it...

Since the day our eyes first locked
you held the key to my heart.
I come to you defenseless.

Old barricades I’d put up
tumbled down; you built me up!
I come to you defenseless.

I have trust in all you do.
No fear have I in trusting you.
I come to you...

a meeting
     of the lips, yours...
          and mine;
               my heart was won.

Defenseless and drained of power
The reason is simple, you are a victim
an emotionless being without a heart

Hell is the snake in the room no one talks about
brainwashed lackey  - screaming silence
- suppresses me with waves of steam

Missing a guardian angel
They find the hammer very...

amidst these sullen skies
tiny drops stream down
pain lashes out

atop the muddied ground
she sinks within
unable to lift herself

 she tumbles down
like autumn's leaves
memories piling up

buried in the past
as years blow by
she crumbles

in winded gasps
time winds down
her last breath drawn

the storm lifts
as darkness falls
she rests in the...

Tortured by iniquities’ guilt
My soul was condemned toward everlasting wrath…
Defenseless against penalty of sin.

Gripped with hypocrisy in the guise of meekness
My self-righteousness dominantly towered…
Defensive in alluding to human nature’s flaw.

Lured into materialism’s plunge
My carnality succumbed to worldly enchantment…
Defending flesh cravings for convenience-comfort.

Redeemed by the Saviour...

Slash me with the sharpest sword,
Strike me with the minor chord, 
From condescending, cutting word me spare.

There once was a ghost who loved the post 
He enjoyed the thrill of the periodicals fill 
Turning each page of the paper 
Geared to those who picked up an honest wage as waiters. 
There were all these incredible tales 
Using sources that were impossible...

vulnerable shoulders scantily clad
bare of protecting pauldron
without his strong arms encompassing

chest underdressed
short of a shield
without his beating breastplate pressing

helmet unharnessed
mind recklessly unleashed
without comforting thoughts of our melding

beaming brass unattached
sword unwielded for defense
strong arms to swing ~ missing

The instant you were born, my whole world changed
nothing was more important to me than you,
plans for future happiness got prioritized and rearranged.

I picked you up and gently rocked you in my arms
fragile, weak, and defenseless
you won my heart with your baby charms.

Helpless and dependent...

When the hot droplets of sea hit the rough Fabric on your fitted t shirt
When the bones and nerves that write the Stories in this book grip so tight
They turn white
When
My brain finally lets the walls that
Hold in poison 
Depriving the dopamine 
The little amount...

Defenseless

Young, Black, Brown, Defenseless.
Naked, Bleeding, Mute, Defenseless.
Broken, Hopeless, Afraid, Defenseless....

Unlike the days of old when cities were built with walls. Unlike the streets        of my rearing, the place where my story began.  And unlike a lone sparrow      that I once rescued...

I came into the world naked
Defenseless and helpless 
Poor and up against a loveless world
I gave my soul to the devil
In the quest for silver and gold
And now eternal damnation  stares me in the face
What is the essence of life anyway?
To serve my creator...

W What slithers in the mind, gnaws at my peace
O Other people's words, to which I assign a motive
R Rather dwell on verses of Scripture, sonnet or verse
D Deliberating on sounds cast awind, torture me alive...
