Best Traumatic Poems
Traumatic ExperienceHere we hid when we heard
A knock strongly---a sudden clattered upon the ground
Everyone indoor shrieked, trembled
Out... out..... we heard
They separated males from females
Sans bother how small we were
They guided us to the boot camp field
Gave us...

Traumatic Brain Injuryas I lay beneath the twillight
of my perpetrual youth
why under a knights cloak

in my head I'd drifted

craving an emptiness

Traumatic By Pamela Espinal 8th GradeTries to kill himself.
Rather die young than
Achieve goals.
Unsure about
Making a bright future.

Tries to get out of trouble but
Instead, continues until something bad happens, then
Cries when not heard....

We have no soothing words or blooms to save
They shared their emotions, and I feel...

Soup Disappearance Reason
My known, soothing landscapes,
grown from my own hues and shapes,
somehow vanquished their view.
Just one more sore blister of news
to aid my staid mind’s gist of confused.

of all my fear sought...

This life’s like a fish and a reel so surreal/
Seems like...

Insect innocence
Drink the poison from my blood, breathe the rot from my lungs.
Take all that has been decaying inside me and nurse it to health like an injured bird.
A child who was once pure, turned sour like a piece of fruit rotting under the summer sun.
