Best Obscurity Poems

All preparation had been completed
The big night was finally here
At three in the afternoon I went to dress rehearsal
Stood on the Gaiety stage for the first time  - I didn’t have any fear!
Three lovely ladies 
We were standing behind our microphones
Reciting our poems .....

Dare one impose upon the primitive soul,
Revolving around solitude—a savant hold warmer than the sun
Entranced by every ideal—loving many and no one
Would they hesitate to break the sensational sway…
As petals of tiger lilies fall upon its sunset eyes
Tremulous sighs and exhalations—dedicated to wisdom
Looking to the...

Cries of famine, torture and pain echo worldwide
A child who hungers, a family facing death
How can we live in peace until such ills subside
Injustices may linger till our dying breath

The chance to change the course of our world is still there
Though time appears to be...

OBSCURITY

obscures the face of the moon

What is hidden?
Behind your smile on lips
Wet eyes revealing
Smile’s sunshine concealing
Both on different page.

Can any fonder love myself endure
Than self-regard bestowed upon a name,
Or for the cause of unrelenting fame
Become a thing unpleasant to inure
Myself, I think it wise, I must demure,
And savor all the taste of dignity
If takes the pleasure from my liberty,
Then I shall suffer long...

Our lives are but a breath

     so minuscule in the vastness

of time               and the cosmos

that insignificance           ...

Love can feel like an uphill race,
yet, win or lose, you can't abstain.
And only time can ease the hurt
of a heart hollowed out by pain.

Fledgling wings clipped by betrayal
can't take off in pursuit of truth.
And every cut gets less discreet;
as hope hardens the hearts of...

Unwritten chapters of poetry
 hidden mid brick-wall blank
 pages 'tween lines of history's
   past grievances and faux pas,
relentless whispers of tenuous
   echoes chanting unintelligibly 
whilst abstruse inky passages
  fade further intangible obscurity...

Here I stare
And sketch myself living
Timing every breath
But the clock remains still
Not a moment passes
An entire existence to spare
One complete
And nothing
Nowhere or time to go
Trapped here
In this ominous setting
Afloat in this once purgatory
Then once more and again
Impalpable designs charcoaled
Shading my ambit in silhouettes
Every turn I...

If I wrote it all down, would you know it?
Could you see what I want you to see?

Would you think me a clown or a Poet?
If the words flowed in tempo from me?

If I showed you my soul would you wear it?
You should know what...

I'm hiding behind this,
Veil of obscurity,
Because I don't want people,
To see who I really am,
This veil of obscurity is like a mask,
A mask that hides my true emotions,
I may smile and laugh with my friends,
But behind this veil of obscurity,
I'm lonely, sad, and depressed,
I strive...

Drench me in the hues of ocean.
The sky in my bosom quivers
while the dark clouds shadow the birds. 
Lost in  eternal darkness
heart ripped off by this separation
Insanity mollifies  the baffled mind.
Devoured by bleakness
the soul rejoices in complacency....
