Haunts Poems - Poems about Haunts

Echo the haunts
How can I forget this hurt? I try to move past it. It consumes my present to the point that my gift of a future becomes unclear. Oblivious beneath a celestial map of stars. They refuse to grant any wishes. So naive, I still look to my skies. A searchlight soul that wanders the darkness. Unable to find another. A void of voices that echo the...

Midnight Bird Haunts
Branches like bars separate me from skies birds in flying alight Sung out of this feathered corset — each tongue tight, for night's Unseen way up — alone, lay me down with my unseen streak Their skeleton unlike my wings; God, they sing — Eyes nest nowhere — I remember morning by heart Red chested, I'm blinded by the percussions who can see dark —...

The Dream That Haunts Me TRI
In shadows deep where whispers blend, A haunting dream steals through my night. It haunts me still, it will not end, And casts a veil of silent fright. A haunting dream steals through my night, Its echoes dance with shadowed grace, In every corner of my space. It haunts me still, it will not end, Each whisper sharp, a ghostly trace, That lingers in...

Premium Member Vicious Haunts of the Dead
Ghastly sights on the day of the dead frighten me, Zombie ghouls from the grave will arise from afar With a howl and a scream sodden ghost running free Come the fear of dying ‘neath the moon and the star. On a cold October autumn night keeping watch, Lest the hand of the witch grab my leg, drag me...

Our Old Haunts
As a community we thunder. This reality is a tragedy that we are under. Promises turn to demands and they demand that we pay. There is nothing left after this stay. We depart as veils of ourselves- And try our old haunts, the past we cannot dispel....

Life Haunts Me
Life haunts me! Every aspect of it.....haunts me ! It did not give me peace, is not giving me peace, suppose will never endow me with peace. Not till the day, i finally escape from it.

Premium Member He Haunts the Back Streets
He haunts the back streets hugging the sides of buildings Unseen, unfelt, unloved a statistic in a dusty cabinet file Raising up on sole-less shoes He sneaks a view from the alley ice on every windowpane conversations mixing with steam He slinks to the edge of town to the bridge o'er the rushing river Would...

His Absence Haunts
How can it be he is no longer here? How can it be I do not hear that voice His presence haunts me from his battered chair Though I have money and no needs to bare I feel the grief, the affect of his choice. How can it be that he has vanished here? What is...

Premium Member It Haunts Me
A mirage of deathly shadow grates my mind… flinging me out beyond a holed nightscape; it traps my existence on chains of insanity as footsteps race against a tortuous wind drumming, banging, yelling old sins; and how it laughs as if to rake my bones into pieces... NO, is there a way out from this purgatory, this meshed labyrinth? A surreal...

Haunts
The raven stares hard through the window, seems intent on reading the rants on the sheet of paper lying on the table as if they were a flavored part of my brain. The raven is a carnivore that feeds on non-veg dishes of fear and curiosity. I clutch at the sheet, fold it and put...
