Merciless Poems - Poems about Merciless

On my bones, insecurity was carved with a chisel, deep and merciless, And on my skin, you tattooed doubt, like an artist of shadow and suffering, Your steps left imprints on my soul, like paths lost in the mist, You injected fear into my spine, a bitter venom coursing through my veins. You stabbed—stabbed—stabbed my heart until I bled...

“Up men to your posts! Don’t forget today that you are from old Virginia.” – General George Pickett Beneath Gettysburg's sun a merciless blaze Stood Pickett with his face etched with war's haunting gaze. A mind torn asunder and a battlefield worn Ghosts of decisions a burden he'd borne. "Forward, brave souls!" rang Pickett's mournful cry A tale writ in heartbeats...

In the amalgamation of days, we forge a merciless kingdom, Telling stories of a future where fear and betrayal share a cold kiss. A land of howling blizzards, where the heart freezes to find its place, In a battle for surface, where all tread upon each other, so that no one sees anymore. Thirsting for a painful progress, we...

Oh, my merciless muse, why do you hide? Your silence is deafening, your absence a void. I long to feel your presence, to see your face, To hear your voice whispering in my ear. Loose your lips, dear muse, and let your words flow, Let them dance upon my tongue, a symphony of sound. Guide me through the labyrinth of my...

Complying with the calling of merciless death, see yourself buried in the bowels of the cold earth? How unimaginable is it to process this concept and accept it without having a convincing thought?

I can still hear the rumbling and drilling sound of the machine rubbing against the trees, and the dust absorbing the penitent wisdom of the futile murder scene. The loop bends solemnly underneath the fence and the rope swinging pitifully from the mercury head. I can still hear desperate voices calling out for help as...

And away Serene looking sky Seems to be holding the earth and comforting Come up with any magic trick The invisibility is locked Where the earth would be lonely again Without locking the doors of the eyes I'm looking at that in the tumor mirror Many nights Revolving around his eyes However, his eyes are looking hopefully towards the sky Hungry survivors sit...

Merciles Beaute ("Merciless Beauty") by Geoffrey Chaucer loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch Your eyes slay me suddenly; their beauty I cannot sustain, they wound me so, through my heart keen. Unless your words heal me hastily, my heart's wound will remain green; for your eyes slay me suddenly; their beauty I cannot sustain. By all truth, I tell you faithfully that you are of life...

The Moon and the night companion, March for the same journey The journey of sky, The Moon fills her solitude with the promises Promises of lifetime togetherness and love, and the night flaunts on his promises with the air’s verse, Unblemished each other The moon is languid without her, And night is sombre without him How moron are both of them Don’t realise that their...

There once was a wolf, who craved for food, It had evil intentions, and never thought good. One day it noticed six fluffy goats, Took one of them and grabbed it by the throat. Then went for the second and scorched it in a blaze, And on the third goat it had set its gaze. It ripped the third into pieces...
