Best Negativity Poems


Premium Member The Sinking Ship of Negativity
It's disappearing like buffalo across the vast plains...
familiarity has become distorted, both sour and rank.
There's an abandoning of the ship of negativity, 
bringing grief far worse than nine months of labor.
It's given cause for an elegy, so who is to thank
for the decline of what was a tranquil sanctuary?
In backwaters, gossipers have rippled the waters.
They're...

Dedicated to Kyle, My Darling Son
There was no joy when I gave birth,
scary words kept getting worse.
When my baby boy was born
every face was quite forlorn.
He came fresh from our Creator
to be placed in an incubator.
I could not take him in my arms
or shelter him from any harms.

Doctors all had dooming words.
Negativity was all I...

A Redundancy of Negativity
I've grown quite weary of negative poems full of sarcasms
It's true we're separated on many issues by deep chasms
We see things differently; shades of gray, black and white
but please stop demeaning others when critically some write
about government and vaccines as if you're having spasms? 

Stop accusing people of wanting to live in an ivory tower
What...

When you think negative,
         skepticism
  abounds with venom.
    Your delusion and
       contradiction
    feed the shame.

  When you let hostility
       overrule your

Negativity
No, my mother Atheist said,
Long live cricket, God is dead,
Debbie Downer's Nihilist thoughts,
Total negativity she taught,
This is Debbie Downer' doormat daughter,
Saturday sportsmen off to the slaughter,
Yes, God is dead,
Long live extreme sports,
That's what negative Norma said....

Negativity Breeds Negativity
How can you live with such a negative mind
Only thriving on misery and tales unkind
You wonder why you have such bad luck
When its all Happiness you drain and suck
Your outlook is dark and bleak
No positivity do you seek
Inflicting your woe on all that will listen
Like a plague, sorrow you do christen
Your outlook physically drains me
I...

My Negativity My Biggest Enemy
My negativity, my biggest enemy.

I'm a complete waste of space, 
A confirmed certified disgrace,
Im not good enough for existence,
I'm a failure and dont deserve subsistence,

It's like a commentary the constantly repeats,
Negative thoughts that never misses a beat,
A broken record whirling within my messed up mind,
Words thought so malicious and maligned,

I'm nothing but a failure who's...

Negativity.!
This world is so evil,
Despite the good days.
I'm fighting to get out...
...Of this mind contolling maze.

Caught up in temptations.
Tasting forbidden fruit.
The smarter ones that speak the loudest,
Are always the ones kept on mute.

They won't feed into the devils lies.
Or let society get into their heads.
But instead of taking a stand for what they believe in,
They...

Negativity Part 1
Ooooh….mmmm….Ooooh….mmmm….
I’m getting fatigued from what seems like endless distress
Listening to people’s complaints and complicated symptoms
They’re always on their cell phones
They’re always on their cell phones
Feeling lonely, but slightly hopeful, joyous and…
And still yearning for God’s golden grace
And still yearning for God’s golden grace
Getting laughed at because of my facial expressions
Anyways, I had several chances to...

Premium Member Calling All Angels
Do you struggle with burdens?
Are you drowning in despair?
Does a web of negativity permeate your air?
When you travel down life's roads, on your journey, that quest, and God
has clearly put you under deep duress.
Remember those beings that you swatted like flies,
those people out there that you demonized?
Wouldn't it be a wonderful surprise to find they...
