Best Downfall Poems

Great King Solomon, wisest of the rulers of Israel,
The favored son of King David, who was beloved of our God,
Did fall from grace in his old age though God suffered him for years.
He warned him and He warned him that his actions would bring tears.

Solomon's...

Solomon wouldn't listen,
Though God suffered him for years.
He warned him and He warned him,
That his actions would bring tears.
Solomon's wealth and power,
Were known both far and wide,
And kings from other countries,
Brought their daughters for his brides;
But God said Solomon be wise,
Send them away from you;
For...

Suicide is like a storm 
Thoughts pour 
Sometimes drizzle
But never fully stop
People run away from you
Scared of what you might do
Your thunder is the anger within
Loud and strong 
You can hear it booming in your head
Your lightning is like the hope you might have
The lightning,...

The days pass in a haze of ignorance 
Even your closest friend may leave to follow sheep
I could spend years trying to give this topic proper cited coordinates. 
But does the new generation know the Dewey decimal system
Or would they look to the sky and...

I was a senior in high school and I still remember
That Friday afternoon in late November
Early dismissal after saying a prayer
Disbelief and sadness filling the air

He was a man with vision and a silver tongue
He was the type of leader who inspired the young
A political...

I can't read the writing on the wall
The free hand print there is way too small
If I could just turn the volume up
I might find a way out of this cover up
But here I sit dissecting my downfall

Many were the voices who 
Spoke about the...

The downfall of Joan if arc

After the battle at Orleans 
Where Joan dressed in white armour
riding a white horse, took the town.
Making  the Anglo-Burgundians
flee across the Loire River. 

Joan's reputation gained ground
She and her followers escorted Charles 
to Reims enabling Charles to be crowned

Life's a temptation 
we all have to overcome.

To truly find peace in 
our lives, we have to 
learn to push the devil 
aside...

And follow the word 
of The Lord.

If we continue to do 
wrong, then what's 
the purpose of living 
at all.

Everyday's a test of...

Emotions boiling over.  
Went from peace to rage in seconds
Need to breath need to collect
You are not worth all this negativity
Your are soon to be just a blip in my radar
A memory best forgotten or even buried
Cannot even summon up pity for you anymore
You...

political position penetrates purity
anger and aggression accommodate mirroring
of awful austerity allocated each time 
we fall victim helpless to our weak mind
the peoples pressure piles upward
racing towards restoration as the dusk burns
aggravating what was once blue and serene
live this fight in life view the feud in...

Spewing forth contention
All ignorance to compel
Obstreperous yet dastardly
the politicians quell
Negection of poverty
within its own society
Unbalancing the scales of 
a nations sovereignty
Execration of innocence
A new age policy
A xenophobic corpulace
of mass conspiracy
Many masks of one shall bare
the fruits through others gains
Bleeding dry good ethics and
leaving honesty in...

Power and Control was my destiny, I rose from the bottom.
Hoping to become more powerful than you could ever imagine.
But you were my only hope of stopping my madness and hatred.
My passion and love for you was my downfall, it was all for you.
Now I...
