Words Like Daggers
Words like daggers Straight through my heart Shredding my soul Tearing apart My dreams, in whole But saving a piece A tantalizing hope Never within the reach Of my calloused hands Barricading me into a room With only my thoughts Like shadows, they creep Into my mind Freezing me to stone Never felt so blind Pain that they wrought Upon my ruined head Tears of gold I weep Over the hands that...

Daggers
Daggers I stare into the eyes of strangers A warning to all to stay away To seem intimidating and fiercesome So as to prevent unwanted lust Daggers that stab into my soul From friends who become ghosts Disappearing when I need them most Their offer of help, only a mirage Daggers killing my broken heart The trauma and the damage that can't be undone Forever...

Razor sharp tongues unleashed Lashing out viciously to openly legitimise bigotry then suddenly taking offense when queried releasing long concealed weapons the deep desire to "remodel Africans" No intentions of acceptance in sight Spitting out venom faster than a viper To further the colonisation agenda A mouthful of daggers rained down hard on your bare black back Words...

Premium Member Fear Not, My Daggers Are Plunged and Never Thrown
Fear Not, My Daggers Are Plunged And Never Thrown When days are burnt offerings and nights jagged blades I loose me those restraints, set words into parades. Not a tender child, I have seen fire-burnt hearts held a dying loved one, when her kind soul departs. Yes, in ancient days, red-bloom fell off this dark rose now when world fights me,...

Premium Member Metaphorical Daggers
Paroxysm of pain inflicts this pen, tears cry poetic allusion. When petal hearts are misunderstood, life is full of confusion. Distasteful thoughts set camp in my mind, an unwelcome intrusion. Virgin pages innocent in white, yearn to wear this mind's effusion. Too many deep unanswered questions, lead to a false conclusion. When judgement lacks honest intellect, darkness defeats diffusion. Sun is cautious to cast my shadow, intolerant in...

The Daggers by Stina Lu I spent thousands of years burning my flesh Casting, hardening, forging ... The daggers Put one of them on the summit of the Olympus The holy gods feared and disappeared Pierced one in the long and narrow island on the margin of the Pacific Ocean It arrogated the grace of the sun Killing and looting in...

Ten Daggers
Greed , negative, stubbornness, vanity, the arrogant Paranoid , revenge, suspicious, jealousy, the extravagant Ten words form a cold word, Human like hidden tongue, come out in disorder The deep well is dark, the grinders sound, the tea house calls. The Words are healing the wound thoroughly. A ray of sunshine flowed through the spring On this land. Someone has taken out...

Within Her Eyes Memories come fleeting again. The daggers return lashing back. For a moment I thought I saw you. Within her eyes, staring, blank face. What happened to your conscience? No answer to the question, but is the answer, To all the pain endured and survived. The scroll of scars on a broken heart. You were a thief who stole my safety. I was...

Words are your daggers! Lacerates this heart in vicious manner. It’s hard to forget like a bad daydream. Scars aren’t clear. See me smiling, Heart is crying in dark corner. Turn me down! Hate me much! Say it loud! Don’t care still I’ll… Fly!...
