Best Overestimated Poems


Human Being Shell Sleep No More
Human being shell sleep no more,
Lubits has murdered our sleep forever 

Right up we must get to the hard truth
and not blind out the fact
that our wisdom and common sense 
should not have been overestimated more
in certain crucial circumstances
when we  have got  access...

An Epitaph For Fajitas
Here lies T. R. Castor
She bought food for a meeting,
Overestimated how many were eating
The credit card, our boss had passed her
Now she's buried in this pasture...

Philosophy
You plot and scheme but things 
don't always fall into plan,
I know now what most men might 
learn in a life span,
but all my knowledge of philosophy 
cannot spare,
the rare yet paralyzing storm of 
despair,
my life of mediocrity was traded in,
for a life full of...

Just Let It Go
She was hoping I couldn't tell her no but something deep down inside me couldn't push away the ghost 
Pertaining to estranged to her lovers taste
She couldn't explain the pain it gave her just to say my name
So I chosen the moment to just let...

Premium Member Wilde Oscar
“Some cause happiness wherever they go
Others whenever they go”
One of Oscar Wilde's famous quotes
Would have been a great man to know

“Always forgive your enemies
Nothing annoys them so much”
Another gem from this famous fellow
As a humorist he sure had the touch

“America was discovered before Columbus
But it...

Premium Member Expertise
Aren’t we all repository of talents many?
Some of them may be hibernating snug.
But they wait eager to wake up, 
At the opportune time like dormant buds,
At the first fond touch of spring.

Gardening is one of my areas of expertise.
But I don’t limit myself to it.
I...

Civilisation of the Highest Disorder
A god's dream is existence
In the hearts of these amnesic men 
Most are insomniacs.
Lackadaisical,
whose survival
would always be undermined.
Then we colonize
Make them walk on their feet.
Blinded by their ego,
we neo-colonize
And I think, they still need to be recolonized
Gust of wind in them when luxury comes
Like an...

Premium Member The Power of Words
The power of words can never be overestimated.
They bring us up, pull us down, embrace us, hurt us, cause us to instantly laugh or cry.
Wars have been fought over them, families have been destroyed by words.
Lovers have separated, never to be reunited after the wrong...

Premium Member The Antonyms and the Synonyms
To debate
To rebel
The antonyms monopolize
To express
To support
The synonyms monopolize
And now the child memories both
And never distinguishes between them
The positives from the negatives 
The moral from the immoral
The saints from the devils
As they are forever morally Overestimated by the grown-ups
Until they are vandalism-prone Underestimated
With a future...

The Sandals and Shorts Guy
you know him if you live in a warm climate---
he doesn’t stick out because in a warm climate,
many choose to don shorts & sandals,
sometimes they even go shirtless 
when the heat calls for the stripping of the layers---
and in such places,
he doesn’t stick out like...

Poem of Me
I wanted to listen
The poem of me
I made myself
Mine to be.

How mediocre
Then I felt for me
To make the poem
I felt being lazy.

This is my world
Of nothing to say
The poem regretted
For me to portray.

As if overestimated
Was my love for me
Thanks to the poem
It showed my poverty.

Then...

Nothing Changes
The saga continues
The past tells a story about today
Nothing ever really changes in life
Unfortunately, it’s a price we’re willing to pay

The thought of change brings excitement
We make a pledge to do different than the day before
A new movement, a new direction
And change the behavior we...

Skipping Kidney Stones
Did you even want to be found?
I took my shackles off and formed a search and rescue team 
But did you even want to be found?
You’ve been running all your life I think you’ve aced this marathon 
Just come home to me and sprawl out...
