Best Unmatchable Poems


Reviving the Senses Through Punctured Eardrums
What is it to hear a poem?
Ears ajar.
Eyes focused.
Mouth shut.
I struggle to listen when such words cut open
my head and try to make a nest out of my brain.
I DO NOT WISH TO HEAR A POEM!
My body jolts under these straps of limitation,
tightened by my...

Separate We Are Two, But Together We Are One
SEPARATE WE ARE TWO, BUT TOGETHER WE ARE ONE, 
            without this strong camaraderie we would fail-
For we shall show amity until eternity is done, 
   and through all adversity we shall...

Premium Member A Fly, High On Wallpower
If I were to be a fly on a ''wall'' I would like to be 500ft long and around 100 high,
it would be good to keep my poetic consciousness, and I would surely try!
try the highest altitude, and my top speed through the sky,
OH! then...

The Left Hand of God
Depression breeds artistry and keen insight,
Mania makes life a thrill ride;
Fever lends emotion a scalpel’s edge,
And mistakes cast much needed light.

Ugly is beautiful, and lies sound so pretty,
Blindness makes hearing quite keen;
Tragedy brings out the best in man,
And the rain washes everything clean.

Bruises are beautiful—such...

Mountains
My summit like a steeple pierces into the soft cloudy heavens
Therein an aerial view gives me unmatchable stature and grandeur
When you come down to trek through my glades and lush valleys
You unknowingly become a part of me and we merge into oneness

Come and bag all...

Untitled Poem Vii
I have not ceased—
I have not.
The things of the past
Do not rot, do not decay,
But I have not ceased—
I have not.

Once the pitchfork's prongs
Did so deafeningly twang,
I shriveled and cowered,
And found myself prancing
With the headless chickens.

Beneath the naysayer's feet
Are six cockroaches:
One for good luck,
One to...

Tight End
Beatin' this path 'til my heart stop
cause any moment my heart. could. stop.
Swear any day my chest might pop
So sit tight, bout to open up shop
Call this the English chop shop, loppin' slop
'til I'm atop the top makin' rounds, spinning top
slap you sops, I mean...

Ode To the Cheese Crispito
Although we all know it,
you can't spell out perfection,
and our stomachs to it we commit,
under our seasoned inspection,
the smell is in the air,
so thick we can almos taste its glory,
O how we try to not stare,
and like a wolf with its quarry,
we leap at it...

Take This Message To Clara
Under the African blue skies
I saw this beauty with a sparkling eyes
Full of charms and majestic aura
They said her name was Clara
But I was a very poor cowboy
Who could not afford even a baby’s toy
How could I tell her the feeling in my heart
Since we...

When God Called You
Decisions you have made
Selfless and sacrificing
No thought of consequence
Done for love

It was a heavy price you paid
Broken in unmatchable pieces
You made it your burden
Although God already forgive

A daughter you were given
A new start by God 
But those pieces 
Could not fit

A man He gave you...

My Last Night
Last night
I cried out to God with all of my might
I cried out to Him in anger and fright
Complaining for my lowered state
That has made me an uttter disgrace
My sins lay plainly before his eye's
And yet I say that He cannot dispise
For His love often...

Poseidons Captive
When you love someone, you just dive in, recklessly abandoning yourself to them. Love isn’t safe, it’s not always pretty, and it can be devastating at times. But that is what makes it pure; real, it’s what makes it risky, incomparable and unmatchable to any...

The Essence of Life
Water splashed across the window
Struck high the thunderstorm
My fingers tapped the table
While I sat in my dorm
Watching the merciless rain
Communing to me

Taking me back to the aura of being
Telling me the real meaning of life
And as I sat dazed hearing it
Tears came up stinging my...

Closure
I just want the have-not;
I want null in zero-sum.
I want the empty right down to the bone,
All things hallowed undone.

Sweet thing,
You and I are still so young.

My whole life 
You were the one I waited for;
You simply pass by.

I won’t wait here anymore
In the storm...

Us
Look how the stars move
In the sky of a dark night
I will love you until they're all out of light
Now between love and hate there is no fight
The sight of light makes everything right
You match the stars beauty
Going on and on and never ending
For you...
