Inflecting Poems | Examples


Premium MemberLets Not Fight

Having a fight with you  
Is like punching myself, 
Trying not to get bruise, 
Our soul is connected, 
My heart sway each time we speak 
 inflecting pain without intentions 
Yelling at each other for no reason. 
Trying my best to see things your way 
Knowingly, it's so wrong to stray from the love 
Can this kind of pain make me feel better? 
Or scar us for life? 
Having to fight with him 
It’s like taking a swim on a cold winter day 
Without thinking of myself as a polar bear, 
We always said I love you, daily 
Can love conqueror all. 
My heart knows how to attracts emotional pain, 
Our souls are waiting to make that sexual connection 
So, I don’t want to fight with him.

Premium MemberI'M Suppose To Love

The sound of fighting jolts me from sleep,
alone in the darkness of my room.
And tears wash away fragments of dreams,
as angry screams dominate the gloom.

I hide under my blanket in fear
as anguish rips the love from my heart.
And I pray to God, please make it stop,
but it doesn't, and hope falls apart.

Dad flings empty beer bottles at mom,
hollering that he's nobody's fool!
And I wish he would pass out again,
or mom would back off and let things cool.

Muffled rants follow bouts of crying
as hurtful words erupt into tears.
And loud shouts explode into the night
while I curl up and cover my ears.

Punches start inflecting undo pain,
for as always, push morphs into shove.
And hugging my knees, I wet the bed,
I hate this man; I'm supposed to love.

Rainbow In the Night

Iris touched of dreamy light
filtering past grey's darker side
of sorrows home where rain abides
Thou whispered hope hung in the sky

Deeper driven and reached inside
a hopeless place my heart may hide
where by your radiant beam remind
all storms do pass in form of time

Oh in gentle wonder you bridge
the path where heaven and earth are hinged
Inflecting all we feel beside
the glory of your presence and pride

Soft and mild or vibrant glow
O're water, fields or mountain snow
tis' such peace thou immeasurable hope
endowed in the essence of a rainbow

How you fill my troubled soul
with calm as I in awe behold
no matter my hurry my pace will slow
remembering the one whom you enthrone

Seven traveling hues each time
kissing rain and light
reminding eyes that cry shall shine
but you'll never see a rainbow in the night

Hold on, hold tight
we lose some battles amidst the fight
of this one thing never lose sight...
there's a rainbow residing in every eye given life!

Rumors

Rumors are known to cut like knives
Start fights and end lives
All becauce a hater despises
What they've seen through their beedy eyes
Foulness covered by flies
Unknown demise
A demons chest game played with real lives
He said, she said, with a little bit of what you've said
Leaves some one dead
All from words that got in to some body head
Rising situations like to much yeast in a small batch of bread
Scared of the out come so you flee in your mind
Revisit the drama another time
Things don't change
Words still inflecting pain like magic BING! BAM! BANG!
Another rumor rapes a name
Heated like hells flames
Jealousy indures creating a killer like the first murderer Kane
Names lay slain
Slandered by the foulist of mouths
Skeletons pulled from the closet to be placed in piles
Brains began to crowd
Smiles now frowns
Ups now downs
Like tears from a clown
Emotions burst out
People lash out against the innocent
Whom have nothing to do with it
The hater wins again
