Best Struggles Poems


Premium Member Life's Struggles
Our encounters of life and its struggles
Endowed amidst the peaceable silence,
Crisp leaves veiling life, into a wonder
Night curtly lull, in early calm slumber.

Time will come, smile, welcome with elation,
Then the lion's roar, perched on the loud sound
Influence the tall emerald meadow
Sated power of thunder spring...

STRUGGLES

WE AS A RACE HAVE HAD OUR STURGGLES AND TESTS
WE’VE COME OUT VICTORIOUS BUT NOT BECAUSE WE ARE THE BEST
IT IS THE LORD WHO SAW US THROUGH THE HARD TIMES
IT IS HE WHO GAVE US CONTROL OF OUR DESTINY IN DUE TIME.

OUR ANCESTORS WERE SOLD...

Premium Member In the abyss of loneliness, man struggles
In the abyss of loneliness, man struggles,
With a soul burnt by darkness and pain,
He fills his heart with immortal memories,
Weaving fantastic illusions in a somber theater.
He gazes towards the Sun and the clouds,
In search of an escape to freedom,
Dreaming of heroes who, in stories and...

The black man has had a life full of trauma
Forget what you heard save the drama for your mama

When we will come together as a people and blend

Teenage Struggles
Listen to me
As I tell you what you don’t see,
The teenage struggles of today.
I tell you what I say
Is true.
Teenagers do struggle through
Life as we know it.
So why don’t you sit
And listen to the truth of
How teens struggle in love
Looking for the one to call...

Struggles of Life
Nobody knows the pain we feel
Nobody gives the slightest thought 
Nobody treasures the memory 
Of what we said we wanna be
Nobody knows the struggles we face
Nobody never notices we put on a brave face
Nobody cares to give a smile
Nobody ever holds a conversation for a...

The Struggles of a Black Woman
The struggles of a black woman is at best a horrific, tumultuous one
But the black woman is strong and will not be un-done
We don't always do what we want to
We just do what we have to do
We've had to put up with so many un-fair...

Premium Member So Many Struggles, So Little Time
Why does "sacrilegious"
mean struggling against sacred health experience
rather than struggling with re-ligioning monotheistic divinity
to notnot dualling polytheistic dividity?

How could prodigal sons and daughters
struggle against their prodigy potential,
yet not struggle with our prodigious potentiality?

When would a wealthy natural spirit
struggle against healthy spirituality
rather than struggle with nondualistic...

Premium Member City Frozen Cold
Verse 1

His coat is torn his 
shoes are thin
The cold cuts deep beneath his 
skin
Little boy coughs small 
hands that shake
Winter's breath is much to hard 
To hard to take. 

Verse 2

Sidewalk echoes silent 
prayers
People pass but no one 
cares
Cardboard kingdom borrowed 
time
Every step is...

             who, for time eternal,
             left footprints and paved our path, so we can walk with our heads high.

Daily Illusions
Living in a false vision,while creating illusions of bad decisions.In my past when my footsteps became ashes,I was stealing for others who really need it.I position myself in danger countless times for strangers with smiling faces who take advantage of kindness,weakness,and talents.But now that Im...

The Fight
I’m suffocating in here
I’m the one I have to fear.
Broken glass pierces through the soles of my feet
Yet somehow I can’t accept defeat.
Someone call the surgeon
The surgeon to my soul.
I feel like I’m about to fall
I feel like I’m about to fall!
Someone call the FBI
I...

In My Fragile Little Ship
In my fragile little ship, I sail sail, 
In the tempestuous sea of life, vast, 
Studying the stagnant winds in detail, 
Gliding up slowly with a lofty mast.

Facing strong winds my ship starts from the clast, 
And trials of life - tides - ensue without...
