Best Screaming Poems


Screaming At the Sky
Screaming at the Sky
 
Mothers screaming mournfully at a deaf sky
holding their heads helplessly as they cry
pitiful tears for innocent, defenseless children slaughtered
in fatal cross fires, deadly drug wars
drive-by shootings, and cases of mistaken identity
on blood-splattered streets, senseless endless violence; but
who really gives a damn, only grief-stricken
mothers screaming mournfully at a deaf sky.

Peircing Silence, Screaming Thoughts...
Here in my room,
I lay in my bed,
With every thought of you,
Intruding my head,
Like snapshots in my brain,
Of the last thing you said,

My gut is violated,
And I twitch with rage,
I cannot free myself,
From this anxiety ridden cage,
And in this chapter of our life,
It seems I can't turn the page,

This torture is much worse,
Since you have...

Premium Member Silent Pain, Screaming
Prolonged sounds of shrieking sirens warn
Where death of normalcy people mourn
As he hugs wife and child close to his heart,
Ambivalent of woeful day’s agonizing start:
Unjust war burning down sanctity of life
Clasping distressed lives in atrocious strife.

Neither they have hope, nor relief in sight,
Where eerie silence frightens bleak night,
Misery crowds his way on hellish train ride,
As...

OF SILENT SCREAMING PREGNANCIES…

Creative silence 
Unlike the silence
Of death
Is life giving:-

In creative silence
The heart beats;
Blood flows;
Breathing abounds.

In the silence of mind
Sage words scream out
Divine wisdom and guidance
Quietly flowing 
Form her hued womb
As birthing water breaks—

Breaking waters
Flowing poetic births
Whose screams 
Are quietly heard
When penned and read—

Creative silence
Unlike the silence
Of death
Is life giving:-

As you quietly
Sit there,
May your...

Premium Member Silent Pain, Screaming
Leaving my car, I hasten my pace as
silent pain, screaming inside me
intensifies with the increasing movements made
by what I only can describe as an invisible snake
slithering beneath my flesh.
It’s felt by only me, and seen by no one -
the strange phenomenon
of a nervous system gone awry from side effects
of the “miracle” of modern medicine.
I know...

The Screaming Demon
The Screaming Demon

You are a demon of our own creation
Screaming and crying all day and night
You make demands that we have to serve
Unrelenting you ripped our minds apart
So innocent in your looks
Your hands reach for us speaking of your needs
Is it all a trick to make us fall for your trap?
Your bright blue eyes talk...

Premium Member Silent Pain Screaming
How can I fetch what's inside me?
It's a mental scream I can see,
They had poured fear through my mind's crease,
Tears swell deep ache, I grieve in peace.

There has been a real stage play,
Rumbling in the chasm and airway, 
This caused the effect of the cease,
Tears swell deep ache, I grieve in peace.

Screaming voices drove me insane,
Shooters,...

Screaming At the Wall
I’m upset and I don’t know why
No one listens or cares anyway
Chanting and screaming in my head
“How dare you feel this dread-dread”

I hate who I am and who I am to become…God’s forever-lost lamb
I’m okay and dragging on with life
Hating on me…oh damn…oh damn…
And yet, it cuts me like a knife…
Lost in a paradise no...

Crying So Hard I Was Screaming
I cried so hard I wanted to scream 
Your memory still brings bleeding tears to my cheeks
The thoughts of you, me, and us are killing me
Why cant the pain inside just be a bad dream.
I want to wake up in your loving arms 
But my eyes are closed by the tears of my heart.
Everything around...

     confusion slips into our beds
        games the minds of gentle heads

     twists familiars to never-beens
        personas dark mask every scene

     far away from hearth and home

Sanctioned Screaming
I close my eyes, think of myself 
as being there

to where 
screams are free to roam,
then bounce back,
immune to tortured souls

allowed to spread in waves


For some reason,
Ararat comes to mind right now
but to be honest,
Arayat should suffice

surrender, 
surrender...
Surrender

All these rocks-- can I disturb you? 
Even just this once.

let me
let out 

my sanctioned screaming,
and release it...

How can it be that you are dead
These thoughts keep racing inside my head
I can not believe it, it can not be true
How can I live in this world without you
My life will be empty, my heart broke in half
You're my reason for living, you make me laugh
How can I go on, how can this...

Whose fault is it
Who's to blame
must it all be ME
only me...

Yes, I have my mistakes
I admitted, didn't I?

Childish ways
Decision sways
Unplanned mistakes
Consequences shake

Didn't mean to, 
don't you believe?
consecutive days
dotted months
yearlong vents..

I made you cry
 and so I too cried.
I put you to shame
 And so I was too.
I failed you
 and so myself too.

But..
they are all...

      So soft and pleasant 
mine kith’s tumid humid lips 
    pressing on these hips

        Uttering strongly
  the vociferous pert miss
