Best Disillusioned Poems

Always alone, no matter where
never understanding the why
The question not answered,

there's no one to ask

passage of time appears endless
trying to fill an emptiness, struck at birth
Watching from afar
as others move through life with passion
seeking their chosen course
while I drift
struggling to find purpose or reason
in the...

What have I done wrong …why won’t you listen to me
I have my own opinions – I just want you to see

Please will you just listen – I don’t want to fight
We both realise its not simply black or white

You don’t need to explain everything...

From the moment we met you took care of me
You made sure I had all I might need
You bought me drinks and you bought me flowers
You were trying so hard to succeed

First you won my heart, and then you won my body
I presented them gladly...

Disappointment /// Disillusioned

If only it could be known ?, if it be told
why my youngest Child, becomes meanly bold.
If only the truth be seen, the tale would unfold.
Regardless – she in my heart – I will always hold

even if – to these devils – her...

Dee said she loved me I was pleased 
She wanted me I was relieved
But Dee let me down
I felt like a clown
Turned down to be a man I peeved...

Disillusioned
broken promises,
goodbye my love,
sorrow filled darkness awaits,
unenchanted.

rocks in the rocking chair
with her granddaughter by her side,
she’s grown into an ambitious young woman,
she asks nana how it was
when she was young &
wondering if so many people back then
were so disillusioned
with the way that things were going
in their country---
grandma asks her to turn...

We pledged our vows before God and man,
But to have and to control was your only plan.
you wanted a mother certainly not a wife ,
Your verbal abuse nearly destroyed my life.
You wanted to be a father but only in name ,
This was all part of...

Disillusioned by the words of hate, 
Disatisfied with present fate, 
Hope crouches in the corner there, 
Muttering rebellion at despair.

Before the heart is torn to shreds, 
Between the words alive and dead, 
It must be bruised and brought to shame, 
And eagerly accept the blame.

Disillusioned dreams never absent
 Empty echoes of my past
 Haunting  memories never disappear 

 Wandering continuously
 Lost in obscurity
 Misled and adrift

 Forever searching in darkness
 Emptiness corroding the
 Essence of my soul

 Lost in myself 
 No way to be found
 Drifting within...

Doors swings,
The 'galadima's' walking steps,
He possesses,
As if he was a gladiator.
A poised glance by everyone,
He bounces outside as regular,
Complain yet to seize a hold
On his mouth,
The git he saw on the canoe,
Re-awaken his reserved anger,
Only in his attitude,
That anger sleeps and waits awaken.
All his explanation...

Life Corrupted
Innocence vanished
Deceit, Dishonesty, and distrust arise
Perception altered from hardships and struggles
No understanding of how to rise above
Condescension and arrogance all around
Judgement from everywhere
How can there be change without compassion and mercy?...

The Disillusioned Man



He sold his fancy flash car 
And bought a bicycle 
Second hand

He gave his expensive suits to charity
His Gucci shoes
And stuffed shirts
Calvin Kline pants

Handed his gold wrist watch to a Hobo

Took off his rings and gave them away

He even stopped bathing every day

Used...

Shaken snow globe disarray 
Stark format unfamiliar 
Relocated mountain ranges
Jacket assets of chameleon 

Wobbled flesh given for return
Eyeballers display dollars 
Fixated focus planted firm
Subject unacknowledged 

Drifting body parts ignite 
Lust of lurid possibility 
From actuality retired
Maggot eaten depravity 

Gyraters' slip into depiction 
Resigned, pilot drives...

Aiming to embellish my identity 
Rural persona branches further 
Tight city existence not meant for me 
Open road invites life changing excursion 

Ten acre bush...
