Best Scream Poems

eyes tightly closed
still i see your face
how long will you haunt me...

I want you to feed me my only fear,
to make a ritual of the ruddy rain I hear
deluge my dreams with Love's broken mirror,
our inspiration fragmented into faithless drear,
to deliver the division of two hearts once near
on a cutting board of Venu's neurotic nightmare,
take me...

despair hangs heavy 
in the air these days
 
but the only path
is through they say

an intruder in the midst
blowing his cold still drip 
into the ivy

teardrops overwhelm tilted ice trays
gently gathering each
hoping for a catch and release

a heavy hand presenting an uncertain voice
faint in the...

Out in the sun
ice cream runs down
someone’s sad face

Fun will begin
once again, when
the chin is clean,

A few more dimes
just in time, will
buy nine more cones! 
 
Ice cream for all
as we sprawl, in
the shawl of shade

I can hear them from here 
Their wails and cries 
I can see their tears from here 
They are the babies I wasn't bold enough to birth 


Babies my stomach wasn't strong to carry 
Babies I killed before they saw the light of the world...

Stomp, stomp, stomp,
Scream, scream, scream,
Before the stomp, stomp, stomps,
He, she, they screamed screamed,
And screamed, at I,
Scream at I which the thoughts,
Of comeback come near, near, and nearer,
Stomp, stomp, stomp,
 
I hear the stomps, they come closer,
And closer and closer,
Stomp, stomp, stomp

My heart beating faster, faster,...

One sleeps
	The other cries

One wakes
	The other dies



One slumbers as a nervous moon weeps
The pain slowly creeps and ebbs away

One wakes at the rising sun
Torment invades, inflicting anew

Twenty fours black roses
Hours of the thorn

We laugh, stabbed by flower's scorn
Pain inflicted, by day and by years

He from...

I write with pain and paper
The tears become my ink
I live each day like it's my last
While standing on the brink

My words become my saviour
They tell me where to go
Tomorrow has no meaning
A place I do not know

The paper is my shelter
It hides my past...

When you are confused, anxious, in pain, your stomach in a granny knot.
Near the end, nowhere to go, no friends, no family that understands.
"Stand in a field and scream," it helps, they say. I can tell you; it does not.

You've given yourself away; soul, body...

Midsummer hot afternoon hip 
From licking lips of ice-cream drip.

Chocolate and mint I often crave 
But strawberry - my old time fave! 

Exquisite, palate pleasing taste - 
My thrilled tongue twirling, soaked and bathed.

Body and mind of chilling bliss - 
Hot and cold dish of...

Oblong outlines of a soul
Stretched in elliptical misery
Redefines the perfect circle
To a breakable volatile tautness

Loosely cloaked in sheaths of epitonic blue
Draped upon the shrinking body to hide a terrified world 
Dressed in swirling ominous patterns of anonymity
To be lost within the deepest abyss of fatal...

You make me want to scream. 
You are clouding my brain. 
Your hair is thin. 
Your back cannot be seen. 
Beautiful... loving you is my sin-- 
Five hours that have been-- 
So slow, so painful, desert ridden. 
You are a permanent stain. 
It's not your...

Cry, CRY
Wrench your heart and cry
For those with demons inside
With no will left to try

Scream, SCREAM
Find your voice and scream
For those who live in silence
Who are robbed of their dream

Mourn, MOURN
Beat your chest and mourn
For those lost in the night
Whose hearts have been torn

Wail, WAIL
Tear...

I wish this battle would end today
I’m so tired and really must say
That if you continue
To stress me out
I’m afraid there’s more I can do
Than simply just shout
You say I drive you crazy
And you don’t know why
That I must scream, yell and cry
Well just once
You...

sight... 
a prophet's mark unsheathed
radiant, quell the shadow's scream
her lips were never meant for me
in auguries 
... blood uncharted
