Life Hope Poems

The Weight of Adversity

The devil's presence looms, a constant shadow on my back,
As I toil and struggle, my dreams stuck on repeat, never to crack,
The more I strive, the further I drift from the shore,
My knees tremble beneath me, worn from the weight of prayer and more.

The doors that once promised hope now stand closed and grey,
My heart,

Secret Love

You stay invisible, my person is harmful to you
Oh, lady, nobody knows our hidden relationship
I keep you in my shadow, soft love-blanket yours

Love you. Your light kills my shadow, I am blind
Blind, but I see, see and feel your heart, oh, love
Your light meets with my dark light, double heart

We are one. I hope

Life's a ,
But it will not go,
Like an itch,
It grows and grows,
Unless you know
How to treat it
And delete it,
Start all over again;
Yes, life’s a ,
But you’ll never understand,
Unless you take a stand
To grab hold of the hand
That makes life better,
Like a stitch in time,
All sublime, 
Take a look at life
As the light shines
Before the darkness

Unknown acquaintances

On the other side of the internet, someone is waiting for my answer
On this side of the internet, I am waiting for her answers
Her questions are my hope, I want to give the words

But no answers, only empty hope
from a hoped relationship 
I need love
Just the time ran out


What can I do?
Life is end

On the Roof of River

The wings finally untied
The broken feathers laid on bushes
Turned into ashes
The memory of lame rests no more
On the store of the brain-game
New Breeze has leased
The opportunities to be ceased
Life has transcended
Beyond the mundane 
Not so wild in the wide world
Seashore is no longer apart
The heart now is meandering ways
To uplift the drowning soul
And make its

A Warning To My Heart

Now, I fear sharing everything with him...
Lest he use my words, my emotions against me someday...
I fear saying he's my protector...
One who justifies others' actions before me...
I fear his words are mere hollow claims,
His love declarations just empty claims...

I fear the whole world is against me, and he's part of it...
I fear what I

Where is my love?

What is my life kind like? Anything of life?
No, the forgotten fate of a life of the field, flower-like
Be a style like of my kind and lover of the dream life

Please, don’t find me, oh my Emma love – your kind gone
A poor man in the cemetery gone, no your life, that’s

Life - I can’t find
No life - still alive
Hope - faith gone
Death - life is on

I believe in... - it’s coming
Feel me and leave me
Understand me - no!
My life is your death - on

Fantasy - it does not exist
Hope is not a life - Fantasy is faith
Believe in your dream, in yours
Fantasy - not going

I need, I need, I need black life
I want, I want, I want to stay a white
I am white, like a bright snow cristal

Snow Cristal, mine is a silver life
I am an angel, I do not want to be a gold
Silvers kill the golds, diamond is my home

I need, I need, I need another life

Escape From Life

What becomes of a world of war?
The world is crowded, lonely, happy and sad
Bored I am of life I am bored
Whisperings of life hint it is stressed

The strait between hope and despair
Forthwith bears an obscure seclusion
A menace seeping through the pores of gladness
What is deprived but a hope that's deferred?

To live again is as sure

A Cruel World

We are born to die, to cease being, living.
Our purpose is to reach the final cessation
Of breathing, of existing. But we fight on.

When Death nears us on his skeletal horse,
Or in the guise of a merciless, dark Angel,
We scurry away, foolishly try to hide.

Concealment there is none, yet we hope.
Pray that our supplications shall be

Premium MemberDecayed

Once vibrant and alive, hope danced in our eyes,
But now, a flickering ember, slowly it dies.
Time's cruel touch, it weaves its bitter thread,
Unraveling love, leaving hearts heavy with dread.

The promises once made, like whispers in the wind,
Now fade away, like echoes that rescind.
Love, once a flame that burned with fiery passion,
Now flickers weakly, consumed by
