Best Sympathized Poems

There is a place, that's far away. 
That's filled with love and soothing
grace.
  He spoke the stars and the heavens
too. These Special words I share with
you.
  The King James bible tells me so. 
His truthful words, to love and know.
  Please ask...

I hesitated
Sorry I brought up the subject
I choke up
But he insisted
So I blurted it out
In the end I bared it all
He listened
He said he understood
And sympathized
I didn’t buy it but
It felt good to tell him
The weight off my shoulders

Miss Muffet was a girl of thirteen, filled with youth's beauty and charm;
And a love of vibrant life zealous, like eager, vivid thunder of blue alarm.

She was a fine student, pert and popular; like the primrose popularity;
Or stars appearing at the designated hour, sparkling like...

A piece of me has been torn apart
All of you have broken my heart
The tears are still coming and going
And I can still feel my heart burning
I know that this was coming
But I pretended and kept on going
I defy the critics, break up the plots
And...

'Twas the Night before Christmas and I must confess,
the year 1987, started out just like all of the rest,
with christmas lights twinkling from everyone's dwelling,
but believe me it was different and far more compelling!'

'I'm Sarah, a reporter, who's delivering this tale,
from Chris' own journal this...

Logical me
Well, I find that kind of funny
Because how could you see me
If anything, as 
Smart?
After Passionate me wrote so passionately
The letter I penned with the ink
Of my heart
When meek, Timid me tried unsuccessfully to
Admit to your face these feelings
I've had
And so Unhappy me thought...

Leaving work for home, my job stress still fizzled.
The long drive included bratty rain drizzle
and windshield blades needing my constant fiddle.
My stress spittled as rush hour drizzle-tripled.
Some driver's fingers waved from their hand’s middle
but I thought how my nights were far from simple
with dinner and...

(Here comes a husband, a leader, preparing for the war for his people`s right.
A wife, making sure of everything to be perfect before leave and the angry troops who are ready to die after their devil`s death.)
(Departure is terrible, now or then)

I cannot understand, what...

In the fry oil of your frustration,
You've turned into someone stranger than fiction, by your callous action 
A heartless love affair had it your way and I was having a good day
Until you and I were led astray by disarray and disapproved yay

My...heart...is...torn...apart...
The moment you...

Having a traumatic history isn't always bad
While you're living it, yes, your agony blinds all the optimism
It closes every gate to keep the buoyancy at bay

The worst feeling is to find yourself being the helpless character of your story
The one you read about in those...

the silence of these

screaming profanities!

only the light rise

of my bosom,

fluttering erratically,

soon to die.

ever stinging ache within

ablaze, engulfing my torso.

 my inner-thoughts, my betrayal,

weakness emanating from my 
sweat!

my cold cruel heart,

shut off from that once 
intoxicating

passion that consumed my soul.

bitterness now my old friend,

keeping me alive...

I lived my youth without many friends,
yearning for a departed father so selfless,
renouncing his children for another woman over-sea,
while my mom resigned to her fate;
lamenting and denouncing his terrible mistake:
and she worked hard and prepared delicious meals,
even her outlook on life was fantastic,
but something was...

WE WERE NEIGHBOURS

Though my memory fade and my sight become hazy
I shall remember...
None can forget the rumble of the guns
Neither the red skies that hovered over Kabale
Nor the air thick with the smell of gun powder

O forget how you arrived at our door steps
With the...

Deep inside i cried and i cried
  wanted to scream but my voice had died
  You used me, you had your fun
  i  knew it but i had no where to run
  
  I was scared, I was helpless,...

Constantly Been Criticized

Have you ever constantly been criticized?
And before you knew it then realized
If people with me truly sympathized,
Poems would not appear to be disguised.
 
I am sure everyone has a certain talent
And all of our efforts are very valiant;
Not only that, you can be...
