Misunderstood Poems - Poems about Misunderstood

The Earth, before she was Earth, was a quiet thought in the mind of a sleeping star. She dreamed herself into being— slowly, like moss inventing time, or like a sigh deciding to become wind. She did not begin with thunder. She began with loneliness. Molten, aching, raw—the way hearts are before language finds them. Her first lovers were chaos and gravity. She...

Gethsemane, And sweat like blood. Disciples quite Misunderstood. Golgotha's cross, Forsaken cry, Misunderstood. Why does he die? In borrowed grave, Cold death entombed.

See Matthew chapter 26 and Mark chapter 14 ...

They label you a rogue, a jest, A playboy cloaked in careless jest, Yet here I stand, my heart steadfast, For in your chaos, my love is cast. You wear no emblem of your soul, But in your gaze, I find my whole. A dance of kindness, subtle and rare, In secret gardens, love takes care. To others, you're a monarch bold, A figure...

I can hear, But not what you say to me, Because what you say to me Is meant to hurt me, And I don’t want To be hurt. Do you hear me? I can see, But I can’t see you, Because you do not wish To be seen. I will show myself, If you show you first. Do you see me? I can feel, Hands reaching...

You don't seem to understand The truth I clutch in my hands I never wanted to hurt you I just wanted to show my virtue It's the only thing I can do I'm on my floor laying dead My heart knows what's good in my head But my tongue is cursed to be lost And your ears get the wired cross I speak nonsense...

I want you to come to me With all the reasons good. With nothing much to worry about, Less to be misunderstood. I want you to look at me With love and care and hope. I want you to read my eyes, Where words find little scope. I want you to be heard 'midst all And spread the dew of love. I want you to...

My heart is heavy, I cannot deny, Life is tough, I can't help but sigh. The weight I carry, it seems to grow, It's hard to bear, this feeling of woe. Loneliness surrounds me, it clings to my skin, I try to shake it, but it won't give in. No friends to turn to, no one to talk to, It's hard to...

In the temple of my soul burn words misunderstood, The secret bell of my hope tolling dimly in the echoless temple, How I wished to sift the hidden meanings, And to lay upon your altar achievements that weave smiles and never-ending applause. Oh, how heavy are the crowns of glory sought in vain, When your animate earth refuses to resonate...
