Best Pestered Poems

My mind is burning, blazing, turning
With doubts and irrational drivels
My heart is livid and hardened
For it freezes in the potentials of disappointment
Of failure, downfall, and...

She likes things running smoothly, like a finely-tuned...

and dreamed of wings, 
since then i have been migrating.
In my gamble of life
I have wagered my happiness,
and lost...

Incriminations bolster theories
pestered by daily
salutations, delusions
sanctimoniously intensified
by the written word

Your philosophy exculpates
delirium while triumphs

and 
pursued
by 
unknown 
foes
A

fangs!
Nightmares 
in 
which 
the 
day's 
stallions
make 
mountains 
out 
of 
molehills.
