Maddening Poems - Poems about Maddening

So the song thrush sings his tunes to the darkening sky. Is it to give thanks to some bird god or just for you and I? As we watch the evening’s dying light and say goodbye to another day lost in time. We sleep to give rest to our maddening minds. Then wake to insanely rush through the...

Buck off a twenty; should twenty buckshots mean nineteen too many? Extinguished abruptly, with Godspeed so mighty, effortlessly shattered, sending molars afar. So far they say a shard was found in the neighbor's yard. Found someone at the bar. Didn't want to get in the car. Pray tell, that didn't get far. I arrive at the walkway; I push past a pause, just I can't stand until standing right side...

If my meter were sweeter could I be the star of the show I struggle with getting it right – I know I’ve a long way to go I sound out the syllables but where is the stress Apart from in my brain - oh I make such a mess 'Foot’ or ‘feet’ aren’t the limbs that I...

Pitter patter, pitter patter Telling me that I don’t matter That the storm clouds will not scatter Telling me my heart will shatter Pitter patter, pitter patter Splish splash, splish splash Telling me our dreams will clash That on rocks my love will dash Telling me my heart he’ll gash Splish splash, splish splash Drip drop, drip drop Telling me my love he’ll swap That my heart...

They say if you're tense Just picture them naked You don't feel clued in Creatively fake it Reconsider both sides Look up -don't look down Mad waters could take you Crash you up from the sound And your voice might be lying Seems your thoughts are too loud Far away from the quiets's How you drown out the crowd...

Possessed and dispossessed in the blink of an eye fresh pain in old wounds chunks of yesterday's and tomorrow's pain crowds today's vacuum suffocation and nauseating sweat slowly excites the numb senses cleverly disguised in false colors bleeding my inner soul i gather to your selfish whims but you are blind you see me through the crowd's eye listen endlessly to my hoarse laughter as i circle mindlessly round...

Converging forces, volatile and caustic Magnetism drew us two poles together south on south Defying physics ,advice, and common sense We tempted fate and dove in ...in straight jackets Your unabashed, uninhibited way drove me wild Impetuous like a child, I was the toy My outspoken, wild, and lively...

In the mouth of madness Is where I now lie My comfortably numb sadness Surrounding like a lullabye, Such a sickening sweet melody Just for one moment I'd like to detach you from me.
