Best Pain Dark Poems


Premium Member Locked Away
Tears, screams, pain, mixed with desperate pleas for help!
Fear fills the void in the heart. Regrets for what might; should have been ring continuously around an aching brain.
Now, living these things alone; locked away so no one can see.
Insane inside, surviving life on the outside!...

An Inmates Dark Christmas
An Inmates Dark Christmas....
It was the first Christmas right after my momma passed away.
Any other Christmas I'd be making the best of the situation, but it was a very dark day!
It was a day I wanted to escape from, and nothing could distract my mind.
My...

Premium Member Loss
Searing pain rips through my chest,
As I slip on the painted green stairs, 
Running from something I’m not sure
Too afraid to stop, to turn my head.

My heart races, my head throbbing,
If I could just take a deep breath,
To cleanse my soul and refresh,
Where is this...

And Then I Remember
I wake up in the middle of the night, and reach out to touch you but you are not 
there
 And then I remember, 
The pain returns as quickly as an express train racing out of a tunnel
A quite cry escapes my lips a silent...

As Resentment Attacks Our Pale Soul-
As resentment attacks our pale soul,
We sit in the dark surrounded by confusion,
We start to think about this dark sorrowful life,
And we feebly face our sinful feelings,

As resentment attacks our pale soul,
Our quivering bodies run away from themselves,
Trying to find somewhere to hide,
But sadness conceals...

Purgatory
Ripping down the walls that I have shadowed deep within my soul.
Maybe young in years but feeling all the days of old.
Still continuing my search for a small glimmer of light.
To guide this lonelly wanderer through the darkness of the night.
I slowly begin reaching out,...

No Turning Back
To live ones life in a dark shadow,
Is like living where there is no other soul.
Being alone, frightened, upset,
Fearful of dying someday.
Living in pain and agony each day.
Pain, deep torturous pain that rips 
Apart ones feelings and eats away at the heart.
Fearing the days that...

Oh, the Tortured!
His pain was written through his rough and wretched hands,
He quivered and whispered a plead for mercy again.
"Why must this heart break, why must I lose? 
This pain must leave me with no further adu!"
His road was rough, maybe more than one can bare;
that must...

Depression
It’s dark and lonely in my mind the light I can not see

Sounds are getting fainter there is no one here with me

Tears flow heavy like a late afternoon rain shower

I can hold them back no longer; I just do not have the power

My heart...

Suicide
As the days turned into weeks, the weeks into months and months into years I wondered half-heartedly how so much time could pass me by. My life was a matter of simply getting through each moment. Existing but never living.

The days dragged on. Growing bleaker...

Premium Member The Past
Alone, inside my wounded mind
seeking answers I must find
the past, it rears its ugly head
to keep me filled with pain and dread
always wanting me to bleed
to fill a dark and vile need.

Too many years it's kept its hold
and left me lost in dark so cold.
In...

Premium Member My Total Pain

Poems request that I be authentic.
I am unsure my pen can take it.
I live life as an emotional sayer,
but should I now reveal each layer
my blood will spill upon this paper.

I have sought to give life tender smiles
while enduring heart wrenching trials.
I have glued events...

Feeling Him Near
All around the room closes in
I can't see him, but I know he is here
A gentle touch on my back
And he soothes my pain away.

All the maddness creeps slowly out of my soul
And eve though he does not say it much
I know deep down he...

Premium Member My First Escape
The prison I was kept in was small, dark and wet
I didn’t know how I got there or how long I would stay
Yet I had a sense of comfort and felt I’d be okay
And didn’t have the courage to escape from it quite yet

I could...
