Best Dependance Poems


Invisible Ailment

I despise you every day  
Pills needed to make pain go away
Tried so many to help me through
A pain free day, impossible that's true.

Patches,nerve blocks,try Botox
Acupressure, acupuncture, re-adjust
Ice and heat, new pills this week
Go down on one, go up, don't peak.

Withdrawals from one, effects from another
Lost another week, I want my mother,
Comfort, understanding someone to care
Lost so many, no comfort there. 

Dependance is not addiction
Explaining those differences causes friction
Making others understand
I need support, just lend a hand.

Living each day in chronic pain
Is no life, at times insane.
I wish one pill will end this drama
That all began from surgical trauma. 

Lowered, changed, done what I should
Educated myself learned everything I could
To find what helps relieve my pain
Because I want to live again

Living a life in chronic pain
Hell on earth minus flame
Having a problem invisible to see
Causes judgement, scorn, jealousy

People think it a sham
Never try to understand
Can't understand when not in sight
Explaining illness is my plight. 

What I would give to live pain free
No need of medicines to carry me
Miracles happen I'm told its true
If selfish oh well, My life, not you.

The Birds House and the Koocoos Nest

Just beyond your focus, came a fallout of rage.
 There was a silance that had ended by the look on your face.
    And I could swear_____ I saw you fall apart, your strength
        had turned to weakness as you through up your arms.
                       I CAN tell when your losing your way.
                      And it's not fair that your running away.

           Your dispositions faded like the jeans that you wear,
and by this challenge thats forsaken because you really don't care.
   It's about this matter of dependance that you've already scathed,
   so lets head back into the silence so that we don't BREAK away.
                  And just follow me if you don't know your way,
        and I won't tell...........when your running around in circles.

Premium Member Bi - Folding Doors

Six months after my Mother decided to move 
     out of the house, which only she and I shared. 

     Had not surprisingly been swept on a messy path 
     during preceding time. 

In nondescript depot, Northern suburbs of Adelaide 
We met while waiting on stationary city bound bus
I was 16, you 14, shared only gender and addiction 
Your two finger signal to me, initial encouragement 

Together we stepped out, sat down with ease
A pocket produced the cigarette you requested
Yet  to realise your soon apparent clairvoyance 
As my Angel, our meeting was ardour suspended

With nonchalance of street-wise, I shrugged a reply
"Just heading to the City, - see what's going on" 
You ascertained vague expression between lines
Guaged I had nowhere prescribed to belong

Insistence that I come to your house unwarranted 
I swallowed order with gratitude, steaming broth's bowl
Shock shot lame my stiff stance, flowing warmth translated 
Riding the bus beside a friend, unlikely dream unfolded

A typical teenager, you lived with your family, to become
My family for the next four months, a premature adult's reprieve 
Your three sisters, one brother equalled four full bedrooms 
Her pure generosity allowed your Mum to willingly shelter me

Had my cashless, city bound track occurred, I shudder
to guess at possible horror hapless trajectory offered
Shahanna, the miracle of our co inciding invited my rescue
A chance for childhood dependance given to the discarded




       

         Indebted to Shahanna's proximity, God's will

Premium Member Listing To the Far Left

We've begun to beg terrorist nations to supply us with dependance.
When the world's largest deposits of independence are underfoot-
Farmers are paid not to produce food. 
So, we can no longer feed ourselves...
Meanwhile Bill Gates just gobbled up 250,000 acres of farmland.
The world has been muzzled and repeatedly injected with a mysterious concoction called big pharma bonanza.
Our leadership keep reminding us that we're a racist nation.
Yet millions of People of color race across our porous border-

We weep over a miscarriage while scores of full-term babies are being slaughtered every day.
Concerned parents are called terrorist. 
while looters and rioters are encouraged and subsidized, by the V'P and similar ilk.
Police have been demonized. 
While repeat violent offenders have been given the golden ticket to violate Again and again.
Just a year and a half ago my vehicle got a sweet 35 M.P.G-now it only gets a bitter sixteen.
We've got a president in rapid cognitive decline.
A V'P who's good at two things.
Opening the border and her knees.
We have a newly elected supreme court justice who can't define what a woman is.
Obama once said he was going to fundamentally change this country..
and boy was he dead on...
Only God can right this listing ship called America.

Pills of Assorted Colors To the Small Mind

ithe doctor said when i was young...take the pill...youll feel better. youll feel better. youll feel numb and depressed and all you wanna do is sleep it off but the pills wont let you. i stopped the pills because i learned quickly that the green ones kill you if you take more than one;
the red ones or maroon dont really do anything;
the blue ones...dont take them theyre for grandpa;
the white ones make everything better;
the smallest white ones are for moms monthly issue...what magazine needs pills?
the clear yellow ones...stay away that is all.
the clear green ones make you sleepy;

and i do not take them because dependance is hard to break...i wont make the same mistakes daddy did...i promise

Portrait: Of a Lady

She had never felt so loved, past threshold
of turning back to familiar home
There was comfort in arms that held
her statuesque form, heart fine honed

His cruelty made her kind, bound to commit 
to vows she once thought she could not follow
Free spirit reigned in, free will did permit
dependance on hope's promise, now hollow

Embedded deeply in heart and in mind, 
integrity fired truth to be her guide
knowing full well all she would leave behind
To give her best was all she could try

But for the fact she was so much hated
She would not have known love, underrated

For My Children

Your path in life I always aim to enhance.
My time with you is balanced as best I can
most often driven by your dependance.
Independence the goal since your life began.
Remember mistakes make way for another chance
to embrace the lessons of lifes great plan.

My love is not something to balance
nor to feel shared or compared by our clan
For each of you its unique in substance
not quantifiable, not more or less than
My love will hold strong no matter the distance
I am yours, always, for you are my children.

Dreadful Dependance

As the world fills up with chaos, people beggin to lose focus
Like external, slick, black fingers, here to manipulate us
Though what we have now been living in, drowning in, surviving with
Is now what we and mother watcher need to further earths existance

Into Your Kingdom of Love

I


Which time is better?
Which season is better?
Which companion is better?
Which age is better?
Were some of my thoughts as......

I carried my drowsy cherub on my shoulders
cautiously walking in my garden
so that sleep is not disturbed
by my overstepping any cobble.
The night air was perfumed
by the queen of nights 
loyally growing by my dark casements
and swaying with the mild waft of winds.
I smiled at my innocent bairn,
as she smiled in her dreams,
making me wonder,
do these angels 
also laugh and play
in their kingdom of dreams?

Her head on my shoulder,
her left hand holding me tightly  
around my nape,
her limp body cozily snuggling,
breathing her warmth onto my neck,
made me hug this child from heaven
even more tightly than before.
Her vulnerability and dependance
on a human whom she cannot judge
pushed my stubborn heart
Into caressing and  kissing
the soft cheeks of God's miniature self.

I entered the uncreaky greased doors,
tip-toeing to her satiny crib,
laying my dew kissed angel,
who had been lulled to sleep,
on her peachy pillow.
I lovingly watched overhead,
enjoying to see my bud bloom steadily.
With time, and in every season
I will watch her grow of age
till my moppet will hold my hand 
and lead me into her kingdom of love.

This Poem May Not Be For You

In a perfect world monsters wouldn’t creep
They wouldn’t bother little kids while they sleep
They would make keeping a secret a burden so deep
I am a member of a group called scorned
Where fathers show up but never stay to perform
Where mothers stay up late at night weeping instead of sleeping 
And where grandmothers pray for healing 
Where churches ask for donations but no one is giving
In a world asking for answers no one is listening 
The American Dream is bending 
My generation believes that success includes drugs, money, and stripping
Sometimes I picture myself running through the jungle blind 
and when i put my emotions to paper i lose my mind 
If im a little antisocial please forgive me
But people always take and forget to give me
Im always last on the list 
Im always the name they thought of but missed
“Oh i didnt think you would of came”
“I thought you were doing something” 
Did you ask or did you not plan on my attendance? 
I’ve never let my need for happiness turn into dependance 
I’ve never let my circumstances rob me of my dreams 
I refuse to let the struggle strangle whats mine
I am destined for a path that not too many take 
And if they do often they have to fake 
They even act like they’re one way just to make friends 
I’d rather be myself and alone 
at least i don’t have to pretend

Savior

I'm caught between my heart 
and my feelings
the insanes logic slowly revealing 
the battlefield drenched with mistakes 
made
not nearly enough the price to be paid

a calming word,
transformed
a harming world 
endured

a storm is drifting and quick on my tail
a confrontation of hot and cold gales
a twister shows my irresolution
love my blindfold a cloudy illusion

a future forbode 
locked with lies
consumed by those who claim to see
through shut eyes

a war is lifting and my allies run thin
the ignorants blood we can't ever win
the devil lays hot coals to refine us
the flames catch the weak who will 
confine us

so you protect your pain and love your 
hate
they dig our hole and we'll never 
escape
we slowly grow darker and flames 
hotter 
the link missing between father, son, 
daughter

hush the gales for your pain is what i 
crave
mind and body only focused to save
rest now for the stars smile, shine, and 
cry
gravity seen reality defined

trust me to

catch your suilloete aginst untamed 
skies
only in deep pools of blood will i die
i'm caught between my heart and my 
feelings
realities plight slowly revealing

hear the solom sunkin words of the 
stars
who dare to be up and a away so far
they lay sane and untouched by the 
hard time
and i pray for you to follow in line

a storm is drifting and quick on my tail
a war is, lifting soldiers raised from hell
give me your pain relenquish 
dependance
so i can weild it and close the distance

Torpid souls in the heat of winter

Wind whispers through the ears of distant lovers as the sun hides behind ominously positioned clouds 
where their gray cast shadows on quiet hearts 
quiet minds, & quiet eyes alike 

Poor lovers, transfixed by natures embodiment of their undisclosed truths, 
words no more manageable than a peep escaping a ducklings throat 

Eyes shut wide, glued by dependance
Waiting for mama to come, waiting to be fed 

But there is no food here, just gray 
& mama will not come it is just you and i
& the feelings we dare not bare 
Starving ourselves 
waiting for spring to melt the ice away

My Redemption

Music is so full of
love,
of sadness, of
anger, of joy.
Music helps to calm
you, to excite you,
to help you live
life.
Music is serenity,
and wisdom and
power,
Music is all that I
need on a lonely
day.

The rhythm of the
Music, swallows up
my pain,
the sound of the
instruments acts
like a natural
painkiller,
soothing, easing,
holding me tight
till I can't feel no
more.
The lyrics speak to
me in a way that no
one can,
in explosions of
sound, with no
purpose,
but it helps me move
on.

Nobody can reach me
but the artists I
hear, everyday.
With their words of
truth, their words
of inspiration,
their words of . . .
dependance?

Yes. That is all it
is. Dependance.
Dependance on the
beats, the words,
the shell of sound,
that surrounds my
pathetic life.
My life is in the
hands of someone
else.
Someone with control
of my strings.
Pulling me away from
myself, from my
parents, from God.

All it takes is this
knife.
One cut, and the
strings are gone.
Well maybe two. Or
three.
By the time I
finish, I'm a mess,
worse off than
before.
Satan's got control.
I try to hide the
scars that remind
me,
of what I have to
lose. I cover them
up with the dark.
I don't want the
secrets exposed.
But...

God sees through the
darkness. He sees
past my
insecurities,
past my weaknesses,
past my sin. He
grabs hold, and
never lets go.
He leads me out of
the darkness, and
toward the light.
He shows me the way,
the way out of the
pain,
the struggle for
breath, as I get
swallowed up by the
smothering evil of
sin.

He is there to catch
me, when I fall
down,
and pulls me to my
feet, ready to
battle through
another day, week,
month, year.
Waiting, and
waiting, for someone
to rescue me. But He
has already come.
He's been here,
waiting, for me, as
I wait for him.
His name is Jesus,
and He's here to
stay.

Premium Member Undiscovered

Hampered decades withered wasted
         Filtered faint supposed adult phases
         Thumb stuck under parental watch
         Otherwise valid options squashed

          Tip toe inhibit, always present parents
          Lame version of living, aged thirty seven
          Stagnated, restricted mentality of boy
          Stranger to poinant beckon, own voice

         Girlfriend experience has to be paid for
         Without privacy, mature desires unable
         To explore collected life's excitement 
         Warranted ability boxed and frightened 

          Nightly dinner served, bed Mum tidies
          Long spanning dependance, care relying
          On compassion, viewed incompetence 
          Spun by insulting cyclic denial's dance

          Worked fifteen years for family business 
          Residing rent free, secure job benefits 
          Have a five bedroom house in next suburb 
          Sits always untenanted to avoid trouble 

          Your foresight surely conjurs panic
          Soon elderly parents may not manage
          Destined to remain home, become their carer
          Tiny limit of terrified world takes you nowhere
