Best Very Hurtful Poems


Premium Member Wounds Are Hurtful Ifl
You belong somewhere in the vast cosmos
where the idiomatic idioms were born

I started to wonder and cry,
Lord, have mercy; this is not I.
I felt as if years had passed! along with age! farewell
oh, we soar to an infinite place to dwell.

The last goodbye was the...

Hurtful Words
They ring in ears for years to come
As chords of stunning hurt they strum
And resonate on mental strings:
All those spoken, hurtful things.

Those who spoke the hurtful words
Which roll like balls of billiards
Inside our heads eternally
Care not of damage they don’t see

But all the pain, their...

Premium Member Hurtful Words
Hurtful words are like a brand,
They sear the heart, they leave a scar.
Words of anger, words of hate,
Like poisoned darts they hit their mark.

Instilling doubts of worth and self,
Destroying confidence and peace,
Words can cut deeper than a blade,
Causing fragile friendships to cease.

Words can hurt but...

Hurtful Things You Say
Hurtful things you say,
Tear me apart in every way
Think before you speak to me,
Because I will not let it be
I treat you nice, and show some slack,
But there are times I will strike back
Even though you are my relative,
If you want love, be sure to...

Hurtful Critic
Indubitably, you're a writer like me
But your world is drenched in apathy
You're plodding through with lethargy
To write words so unclear.

Introvert, you're unrehearsed
Yet so well versed
In lines that hurt
And tear apart the things that I hold dear.

My love for you
It still holds true
You're begging me to...

Young, Hurtful Souls
Let's put ourselves in their shoes
Let's take time to understand why they act the way they do

They're tired
Tired of being surrounded by liars

Tired of seeing bags underneath their eyes
Developed from the lonely night cries

They're tired of being tired the next day from the night before
All...

'Twas once upon a midnight moon
When struck with terror and grief was I, 
He was disguised in lust and made me swoon;
I wanted to leave but I stayed through the nigh'.

Little sense did I have fore rapt in awe.
I searched for truth and continued to...

Hurtful Mindz

I’d rather be alone
than to be with you and feel lonely…
I guess it’s safe to say
that I’m bleeding internally
I can’t make you love me
If you’re heart’s not meant for me…
So my heart is crying
No tears left to bleed
We have no communication
I could have sworn...

Hurtful Words
Please tell me what’s the use in loving you.
I know you’ll never be mine.
Each time I come away from you my heart’s
broken by careless words that work their rue,
driving me back in pain to waiting wine.
Hurtful words that seem so like sharp thrown darts.
Weakly, I...

Surely
Surely I‘ll break 
after you pointed out all my mistakes
I know I may not be the most outgoing 
But if that’s the reason you‘ve been throwing 
one hundred thousand fights
til im burning,bleeding and bursting into tears
I‘ll change for your benefit , I‘ll do a 360...
