Hate Poems | Examples of Hate Poetry

The world drowns us in problems Then expects us to breathe solutions In a society that demands whispers of lullabies rocking them to sleep Whilst we deal with the havoc they wreak Safe in the silence of their homes Black women have to deal with the chaos outside alone The white man's mess becomes the black persons job Our...

Why as black women do we just have to accept everything Can't complain just accept the bare minimum Treated like mothers who didn't get a choice Forced into a life of sacrifice Treated like animals but stripped of dignity Our lives were never ours just a product of control Used and abused like some rag doll Dressed to...

Expectations No rest No time to breathe A weight on your chest Nothing less than excellence Even that's not enough A world that tells black people That even if you follow the rules You are still not good enough Because as long as your black They will always have the last laugh In a world that preaches equality It sure is a hypocrite From...

Oh, since that day, I’ve been done with your games, I’ve been done with your games, so tired, left me in pain, and in courtrooms insane, took half of my gains, you liar, Now you just want to come back, think it’ll all be a snap, life’s just a lark, you were playing the part, but woman I see through the trap.

I tried God, I f***ing tried. To be liked. To be easy. To be the kind of girl they don’t talk about once she leaves the room. Smiled soft, spoke sweet, let the sharp edges hide beneath skin. Held their secrets. Held my breath. Held it together when they left. They called me fake for being kind. Called me a b*** for standing still. Said I was cold — because I didn’t beg. And...

Last tear ?? In pain I write While hope slip out my hand God one word one breath you could have land Silence darkness candle out flames cold You choose Who new it would be you The one I trust to see me through But I guess it's true You gave up on me, did You?

So far, they go - A distant throw - Down simple snow - Forgotten. And yet, a maid - Through crime, parade - And riches swayed - Ill-gotten. The weak confide - Then run to hide - To turn the tide - Now rotten. A dream, they’ll fade - The cuts, been made - No chance, persuade - Stained cotton. ...

I hate the way you looked into my eyes. I hate the way you rubbed my feet when we made love. I hate how you smelled. I hate that you were married. I hate that you have children. I hate that you held me in your arms like i was the only woman in the...

They told me I was pretty for a black girl But if that is the case You want me to interpret that as being special That out of every black girl Im the exception To your pre conceived perception To how you view a black woman The only way to take it Is as an insult Black women are beautiful But your attitude isn't And when...
