Best Time Bomb Poems


Premium Member Ticking Time Bomb

She was a ticking time bomb.
Ready to explode at any moment.
Her temper was ready to boil over, 
at any given time.
People could see her coming.
And then one day it was too late.
She exploded! The time bomb went off.
And we never heard the end of it.
She shouted at everybody.
She screamed at the top of her lungs.
She was a ticking time bomb.
And she exploded! 
Boom! The bomb went off.
Finally! The police were called in, 
and they dragged her off to jail.
Nobody knew her name, and nobody
knew where she came from.
But everybody knew! 
She was a ticking time bomb.
Ready to explode at any moment..

Time Bomb

The town-crier said it thirty-many years ago
About the pool of blood that swept my fathers time
Not excluding the famous town-crier of that era
People freely bought their ticket to heaven and hell
The goats refused to listen to the town-crier voice
Atlast the beautiful timebomb exploded
My town-crier died in the process
The moon is black again with evil
Frustrated hungry souls litter again
Many,more mouths hungry
They will gather at the jungle of jungles
Armed to the teeth,chest,face,legs and hands
My metal gong is crying to the ears that cares
Twenty-twenty the newworld said
Twenty-fifteen the gong master says
Mouths would feed on carcase
Conspicuous ribs,ostrich necks,mosquito legs,insane
pot bellies
The boys are oiling their metals in the jungle
The magicians are still drinking wine in the rocks
Hungry mouths dropped like grapes and mangoes
Moremi and Amina come with utmost speed
Deadly spirits art hunting for blood blood blood
The celestial fire is burning, the blood bank opens
Where is my blanket
Where is my metal gong
Where is  my slaughtered heart
The sky is red with blood
But will be washed away with flood someday
Deadly disease would ravage
Fine flesh of the land, my land, our land
Worst that the battle of cakes
Worst than the battle of the windmill
Worst than the battle of cowshed
Trigger target target would bid my 
Chummy chicks to the deep blue sea of silence
The battle of the jungle would be won but lost
Bloodiest blood bath  of our time my time

Koreas Ticking Time Bomb

Korea’s Ticking Time Bomb

North and South Korea at arms race heaven, 
a massive number of weapons all waiting to be used – 
tanks, guns and bombs. 

One war was enough but nearly fifty years have passed 
and so it’s time for another. 
North uses Migs and howitzers, South uses F-16s 
and cluster bombs all stockpiled at warehouses and airbases. 

Have these people lost their minds? 
Making law with the barrel of a gun 
thinking that they are gangsters at an international level. 

This is Korea’s ticking bomb, 
with North being the explosive and the South the fuse.

Natural Ticking Time Bomb

Am I going insane?
This is driving me insane.
What the hell have I gotten myself into?
I try to straighten out my brain 
go away for a while, but you follow me 
I know you love me, I love you to 
but I don’t know what else I am to do 
I am going to end up hurting you 
It’s best you keep away 
I am a natural ticking time bomb 
Just wait, I’m gonna blow up in your face
But I don’t want to, I really don’t 
But I've lost all control 
I am going away now, this is goodbye
Don’t try to stop me and say this isn’t right 
I may not go forever 
or I may be gone for good 
But it shouldn't matter anyways
you will move on, and forever forget about me
This is for your own good.

Time Bomb

They think they understand,
they think they know the pain.
They try to guilt me into
doing what they say.

I am not scared to leave,
I am scared to stay.
The pain in my chest,
will never go away.

I am alone
in this cold, dark world.
No one to live for-
no one to die with.

My life is a time-bomb,
I am destined to explode.
The clock’s ticking on,
I have nothing to live for.

Time Bomb

Time bomb

At first ,I was my
  worst enemy   in disguise,a   master at sabotage.   
My own destruction,  time   bomb ticking away,waiting to explode in mass  fusion.
illusions  of hope and  prosperity  crumbles at my feet,just same as doors slam  in your face.
Dramatic production,of repeated offenses,as the worst   enemy in disguise.
A master of sabotage  remains yet,lurking in  shadows,looking in mirriors.
No way out,or any where  to go,just keep one  foot in front of the other.And 
elude  the   shadows in the  dark..   The master of sabotage.
Hallowed eyes peering  in the  mirror ,at first I was my worst fear,the master ...
The  raven  sits outside,bearer  of  news,saying .She  at first was her worst enemy.

Ticking Time Bomb

With an arrow through my heart, you poisoned my soul
Toxic fumes ran ramped
Appalled at your conniving actions;
Body is numb, icicles for fingers
Crying inside 
My mind has become a ticking time bomb
The explosion is bound to be epic

Time Bomb

We are like a time bomb. We have to do what we have to, before its "tick tock" "Ding" Your time. Every day do something fascinating something that gets you closer to where you want to be or somewhere you want to go. Time is Limitless.

My Heart Is a Time Bomb

Tick tick tick Time slips away
When do I get to see you just name the day
I’ll mark it down so I don’t forget
But if I don’t see you they’ll be a regret 
Do you want that on your conscious it’s such a big load
Hurry up now before I explode

Away from you I can’t keep calm
Because without you my heart is a time bomb
So come take me away you’ve got me by the palm
Because without you my heart is a time bomb

I call the squad they come along with swat
See what you’ve done its been to long apart
They use their instruments to no avail
It’s not helping their just going to fail
Why do you want to tempt fate
Without your love I’ll just obliterate

Away from you I can’t keep calm
Because without you my heart is a time bomb
So come take me away you’ve got me by the palm
Because without you my heart is a time bomb

They gave up and called for an expert
He could tell right away my chest just hurt
What’s the problem why the separation
Only your appearance can prevent detonation
What is his plan what did he figure
Get you here to shut off the trigger

Away from you I can’t keep calm
Because without you my heart is a time bomb
So come take me away you’ve got me by the palm
Because without you my heart is a time bomb

They countdown has started there’s no turning back
You must get out to me before its all black
Hurry up push your way through the crowd
Before were all engulfed in a mushroom cloud
You’re here did my heart just drop
And all at once your touch made the timer stop

your
WALKING TIME BOMB

Your Ticking Time Bomb

Could explode any minute
Every second you spend with me could be your last
Yet you still love your ticking time bomb.

I don’t mean to blow up in you face
It was all uncociously done
Yet you hold me tighter
As dangerous as it its
You still love your ticking time bomb.

I wish you wouldn’t though
It would be much easier on me
I don’t want to hurt you
But it would be impossible for me to leave
Because there’s no one else out there
That would dare love a ticking time bomb.

But the lit match follows me every where I go
The burns from previous explosions will forever remain on you perfect face
Time may heal, but it won’t repair them fully.

At any time the fuse will run out
I shudder at the thought
I know that I could kill you
But like a moth to a Fire…
I’m drawn to you
Locked forever in you gaze.

With the timer ticking backwards far to fast
Tick
Tick
Tick
But you ignore the loud ticking and the hidden flames
Because you still love your ticking time bomb.

Masked timer
The end is unknown
But I know in the depths of my fiery heart that the time is near
And I twill be a fatal blow.

But overseeing what’s true
And focusing on the present time
You still love you ticking time bomb.

Tick
Tick
Tick
Louder it is now
Racing with the beating of my heart
You hold me even tighter keeping me close
I force myself away trying to keep you out of harms way
But you love your ticking time bomb
So with me you stay.

Sweat accumulates and tears roll down
Heart pounding
I feel so helpless
I know I wont be able to save you from myself
I look into your eyes
Your beautiful forgiving eyes
A final kiss…
The ticking stops and the fire hits it’s end
.
.
.
.
.

And you will always love your ticking time bomb.

Twist the truth 
in what I say 
Tick ,tick it is a matter of time 
Hiding the truth 

With each movement tick ,tick 
Getting closer
to the final countdown 
Tick ,tick the pressure
 
It is building 
Getting closer
to the truth tick, tick 
Saved by the bell
 
I did not explode 
Biting my tongue 
words held at bay
You would not like 
what I have to say 

It would strip 
you to the bare bone 
Your ugly lies 
When the ticking stops 
Nasty words,
nasty deeds 
Will have nasty 
consequences 

I hold my tongue 
as its not me 
Your coloured coded lies 
they hurt deep 
Hacking away at my brain 
Your ugly words 
releasing the pressure 
The release of you 

So that I do not explode 
I never dropped 
the bombshell 
You did 
All the time 
I was sitting 
on a time bomb 

I sat and watched you 
Explode into lies 
Only now 
I found the truth

Time Bomb Yearning

There is a time bomb

Ready to explode

In my heart and in my soul

I have an aching to reach out to you

I have a yearning to be bold

And offer up my love to you

To create a light supreme

There is a time bomb that's blowing up my heart

To the point where it unfolds

And allows the love in

Like a river flowing

Beautiful and magnificently free

In spiritual empathy.
