Pain Poems | Examples of Pain Poetry

Leather bound thoughts, tied on pages, whispering to me of each day's beginnings This sheet peels heart's despair Creeping on bondage of words not spoken that in the light, a yearning arises Spilling yarns knitted but unraveled- Time's remembrances awaken and heave Soaking memories on the earmarks of carbon To learn that passages with bleeding lines Never open to rage...

their faces, their laughs, the echoes of our past never leave they hide beneath the cover of everyday life, waiting for that moment when the mood drops and the days turn wet and gloomy. they appear again, just outside my line of sight, whispering memories of everything we ever did together. my mind tells me they’re gone to let go, to move on. i tell you, i tell myself: until...

If she was the one who unbuttoned her blouse first, who closed the door, who whispered “Come on, don’t be shy,” and still—he said no. If she was the one who laid herself bare, threw herself at him like a dare in a quiet room—was he man enough to say he didn’t want it? To...

You said forever like a song, but silence stitched the final verse. I held the warmth, you wore it wrong— now echoes answer something worse. A smile broke mid-lip, mid-light, like glass unsure of what it holds. Your hands were near, then out of sight, still etched in spaces going cold. Half-heard truths and half-meant care hung trembling on the windowpane. What we don't say...

Smoke in the sky, tears in the sea, Children crying where love used to be. Ashes fall where flowers bloomed, Now silence echoes in every room. We turn away, pretend we're blind, But shadows stretch through all mankind. The world is bleeding, Can’t you hear it cry? Every heartbeat’s pleading Under a broken sky. We’ve lost our meaning Somewhere along the line— But if we hold each...

At times the soul gets clenched, in an unspeakable grief. In a demoniac grip, it chokes and w r i g g l e s~ The pain of being stung by a dozen scorpions or hacked piece by piece by an axe. Tremulous grows the heart, over love that is spent, Seeks in vain to revive the joy that is gone, Strains to...

The scars they don't see Are the ones filled with the most painful memories The ones you don't have to touch for them to hurt Our bodies are permanent scars A reminder of what was once ours Now the use to start wars They made it our prison of skin and bones Condemning us to a life where silence...

Needle in his veins is deep into his skin, while blood's drowning in heroin Lifeless eyes blink, but they don't see anything wrong with all of that is going on, even though they know what exactly is killing him slowly Dark clothing won't hide his sharp-to-the-core bones anymore He was left alone, lying on the floor with spiders...

Beautiful Pain part 2 Back for more. I’m not starting over. Swerve, you're going under. Leave a Beautiful Pain behind. Together, the sun never shined. The damage is done. Too late for forgiveness.

“what hurt the most?”, he asked. Struggling to hold back the tears that were threatening to resurface I replied, “I’m not sure but, maybe it’s the fact that you didn’t hurt as much as I did, You were not the one churning through each of our memories late at night and wondering where it all went wrong, you were...

This is what some will say You’ve crossed the line. Time out You’re rejected from the game You’re not coming back. So go hit the showers Once cherished, baptized, and sublime Asinine. Never enough iodine. Guilty Now crowned in your sins Stoned concubine. The shamed bovine I built a castle by the...
