Best Masochism Poems


Mental Masochism
Welcome to the old you
Hello, Hello,
Despair so Crude, Dreams are gone
Yet we still follow the old Path
Where empathy kills
And the Sympathy we find is another Lie

You were born to deceive
A puppet-master of emotion

Back off this fixation while you have a chance
Who Would Want To Be...

Escape the shade
Evade the thought police
Slip into the shadows
So cool
Oh so cool

Fenced in, fenced out
Got you trapped in doubt
Don't believe me?
Rip away the veil
See the scale of the whale

When you hear their voice
Know it drips with poison
Got you spinnin' with their last surprise
Honeyed words don't...

Anticipation. . . . Masochism
I wait for him by the side of the fence,
Wait for his laugh as he rounds the bend,
I ignore my heart so wildly throbbing,
I delude myself into believing i'm his only,
Engaging in smalltalk to my dishevelled mind,
I anticipate the smile when he sees me i...

Premium Member Masochism
At medieval funerals, it was customary for women
To scratch their own cheeks until bleeding so it's written
Sounds gruesome to me
Weird? Well slap my knee
Back then they must have practiced masochism...

Fallen
On the edge of paradise,
woeful tears fall, cold as ice.
On that edge where I stand still,
ashen whips jut onto my will.

On that edge you sear my helm!
Kibble it like a spider; overwhelm!
Steering through many an eve.
Conceive, weave, cleave then grieve!

Render and espouse; knight and serf.
Guardian...

Initiation
A wild wisp,
bound by a vile kiss.
A rogue thought,
bound by flesh and an unchaste heart.

The parallax of bliss..

An outcast shut in.
Withering in distraught.
Die blessed, you stand in my cold rot, 
Your flow taught.

Beckoned by a teal whisper,
enticing the senses to tame.
Amethyst's fragile wish,
inviting my essence...

Substitution
Eviscerate my being! Distort my face!
Bring me closure to my ego; replace!
Seizure in dark games through which we interlace,
Beckoning the reaper's embrace.    

Subvert my empathy!
Break me into colluded ecstasy!
Mold me in your image of apathy!
Put me in a daze of senseful apogee!

If...

Checkmate
Was it the day I saw you smoking in my courtyard
From the window maybe you looked perfectly happy
To be killing yourself.

Was it when I stepped onto your chessboard 
With all the arrogance of a Minor God
Apprehended innocent
Jack of Spades red handed 

There were no churches...

Premium Member No Pain Too Great
Yeah, He’s got it bad.

Yeah, He’s had his heart 

Broken,  Again

But…


No Matter the number

Of times she breaks it,

Each time… 

She touches it first.  


And her touch is worth

All the pain 

That Hell 

Can deliver....

Craving a Smoke
I’m craving a smoke

I’m craving a drag, a poisonous and toxic puff of smog

to fill my empty lungs to

pass the time to

feel the burn in my throat. I fill my body with

solitude

and meditate in cramped spaces with no air.

Lightheadedness

I hope one day you find what...
