Exhaustingly Poems | Examples


Impossibly Dear

Impossibly dear
Exhaustingly vain
Ever so clear
We’re playing her game

Abiding her rules
Riding her moods
She’ll brand us fools
If we dare elude

We’re all aware
All in the loop
No need to share
We have the scoop 

No one refuses
Nobody talks back 
The deceit that she uses
Dereails our tracks

It destroys our free thinking 
And robs us of pride
Manipulative linking
That quiets our drive

And that is that
No questions to ask
Since our words would fall flat
And she’d have the last

'-Hammock-'

Suspended by some nylon strapped to a tree
With just the sky and me 
Peacefully lonely 
An escape from responsibility and society 
Where I can breath
With my thoughts 
And the air
Chilling away every care
The stars are bars 
Laid across the sky to keep me in my prison 
Of peace 
Till I wake 
To the morning sky
My peace will fly 
Back into its cage 
For the day 
Where it will stay 
Until the sky goes gray at the end of the day 
I go to work and dirty my hands
I dirty my feet across the lands
I then retreat to my nylon 
Knowing that my sweat is gone and work is done
And my peace will fly 
Back into the sky
Painting pictures for me
As I smile with glee
And exhaustingly breath
To my pillow I cleave 
Till the the morning 
When the birds sing
For another day
Where I work my best
Then lay down and rest
I say 
With much love
Thank you  
Dove


Your Fury

You’re worn 
Tired of screaming your lungs out 
To people who just won’t hear you
Explaining yourself while all they did is shut you 
And your eyes 
They are sore	
Losing the vigor that made them shine so bright 
So you shut yourself in your room
And breakdown 
More soreness 
More tiredness 
And you breathe exhaustingly realizing 
You wrapped your arms around them all 
You heard their cries and couldn’t bare leave them 
And now you lay here all alone 
With no arms wrapped around you to make you feel less angry 
And no hands to pull you to their chest and kiss your head 
Saying its okay 
Caressing your heart into peace
So you stop and get up 
Out of your dwelling 
Screaming your lungs out again. 
For if you don’t find peace 
Your fury shall consume all.
