Best Overwhelmed Poems

Overwhelmed senses brought me to my knees,
A forgotten tune that I knew no more,
The pipes were calling, blowing in the breeze,
Gaining volume, my ears full of their roar.

My thoughts drift away on a velvet cloud,
Leaving body behind, an empty shell,
Wrapped so tightly, this invisible shroud,
Music...

When my heart is overwhelmed, I cry to Thee, 
Lead me to the Rock that is higher than me, 
Thou hast been a shelter from my enemy, 
In Thy tabernacle, forever I'll be. 
When my spirit within me was overwhelmed, 
Then Thou knew my path;...

A complete failure, overwhelmed with joy.

I wanted to write 
a beautiful rhyming poem
for your contest David, 
but alas!
I'm a complete failure!

What! 

A complete failure you say!
Yes, that's what I said!
A complete and total failure! 

But...

wait a minute...

isn't a failure, in it's very essence
it's very core...

Now with mass media
I can see over there
So many disasters
The World now can share

Numbing our senses
With sensory overload
Hunger and pestilence 
I see bombs explode

For me to stay sane
I have to ignore
When it comes to news
it's not good anymore

I do my best to help
Over there and...

I can show you relationship fulfillment, or at least the equivalent.
Maybe mental gratification throwin caution to the wind call it lack of hesitation.
She has written words something like loves personification.
This is the epitomy of inspiration.
I can smell her scent of desire like the smoke from...

My eyes were overwhelmed
By the beauty of her face
How her hair shone in its bob cut
Not a strand was out of place

And when I walked beside her 
I felt privileged to be there
I’d have walked a thousand miles 
My time with her to share

Yet when...

Needy waves overwhelm
Battering, smashing
Soft flesh quivering
Splintering, raging, angry
Screeching , fists clenched.
I need more then I have!
To quench the fire,
A hunger, burning desire
As oxen grind grain
Doomed to everlasting circle
Consumed by a need
Spontaneous combustion, eruption
Do what I must
Abilities of others,
To comprehend, to know
What I wish I can't...

Overwhelmed

It was not until we had met on that day
That I have ever felt like this’ spellbound!
And still I ask myself why I feel this way
When you’re near always overwhelmed

Though I still ask do you feel the same to
When near your heart is starting to...

Wiser heart shalt thou prevail?
              Speak to me a thousand words of reason
            Bid me cling to those now fading thoughts

We continue life
And all it's evil and good
Bears down upon us
We're overwhelmed by our lives
But find peace in the chaos....

Overwhelmed dark vehemence 

i swedges each breathe 
for emancipation from shackles of
dark streets i walk
pawing of his covetous touches 
loath tie-ins running since ages
serfdom of a man's wench
or from the core of philtre of miseries 

Beneath my mass
My soul espoused 
The overwhelmed dark vehemence 
It...

Peter dove in, waves all upheaving, raging
Sure as blind eyes always are, never doubting
Saving Sandra, fallen in, shouting, blurping,
Sandra saved Peter!

OVERCOME

I’m a tiny human flicker
In whirling winds, losing light quicker
My flame glows glum, think I’m really done.
Overcome…

I’m a frail glade blossom, that in free air moves
Unexpected thundering mammals stomp with plundering hooves
I’m in the dirt, in a breathless stun.
Overcome…

I’m dropped in a boundless ocean
A collective...

While I'm waiting
You always come with delay
While I'm overwhelmed with work
You always pass by hastefully
While I'm suffering
You always linger around
While I'm enjoying
You always slip away quietly
I can't do anything to stop you
And so, time, I do need your blessings
Just like without any blessings from the...

Ole' Angel of Mine

Robin Hookie,
May you R.I.P


I asked God to send me a miracle, 
I felt your presence. 

I asked God to touch my heart, 
you smiled. 

I asked God to send me a friend, 
I got an angel.
 
When I thanked God for sending...
