Painfully numb
She stares into nothing, Like when she looks in the mirror. Not recognising what she’s seeing, She used to see things clearer. The clearness became distorted, It became everything she feared. And all that fear had left her haunted, Wondering if it’ll ever disappear. She wished the pain away because she didn’t feel she deserved it, But now she feels emotionless,...

I know I'm messed up in the head. I know all the reasons why I had always wished I was dead. But now I just feel like I'm unable to cry....

Painfully Perfect
Painfully perfect There is a depth of darkest in loving The right person at the wrong time! The pain of an incorrect moment is a pathway for understanding Love is not only found on the plate of certainty Loving the right person at the wrong time is A common error in the cycle of life! Time waits for no man We must...

Home, Sweet Home
Some things are painfully memorable, These are the sweet moments of years gone by, When we lived without knowing our share, But you can't buy a ticket there anymore. I was born under lucky stars In the house on the corner. This house is forever filled with dreams It is like a beacon, cutting through the mist. .. I remember the street from...

Waiting Painfully
Your love ,beauty of a sparkling stream that flows down south, we first met Where we sat holding our hands While watched the ants in procession And you asked me that silly question..... how they know their mate when rest? The creepers swinging in the zephyr the love birds resting at a height in pairs on a Sunday in spring I...

A certain flair Sparks the night air Dark times bring pain Now once again Words vanish well As climate tells Not much to say To death's own day Be wise to know As feel now shows A certain change Lights up odd range Fate is not late To close the gate It is not strange To fumble change A rough ride here Now voids good cheer Why and how bring A dying fling In the...

Premium Member Painfully Shy
No one notices Those warm gentle eyes That modest hesitant demeanor Hiding snug in a corner Behind a veil of haze Painfully uncomfortable Hiding symptoms of your mania Still and hardly breathing Afraid to attract attention A hint of loneliness revealed Inner sanctum no one sees Not meant to be shared Hovering through life Translucent barely there AP: 2nd place 2021 Submitted on November 20, 2017 for contest MANIA sponsored...

Casiotone For the Painfully Alone
It’s all the little things noticed or found Introspect details about human flaws Draped over sparse and electronic sound Speaking specifics on love’s small faux pas Lingering decay to crush broken hearts That thud to machine-made, synthesized beats On a low-end keyboard and salvaged parts Locked into sad loops and doomed to repeat Sorting the issues of small town affairs Hopelessly hopeful...

Painfully Delicious
Your touch upon my soft cream skin As I lay here in this gentle breeze My blood starts flowing, warming inside Oh, ....you are such a little tease Tiny little touches, you creep along my flesh Seeking, searching the perfect place to rest You move with speed I envy, skill of a hunter. Quiet in...

Painfully Awake
I put it all down on paper, Letting it all out... Get all of it outta my head. All I wanna do is shout. When my minds open My eyes awake, It's my Poor ole heart these terrible Thoughts tend to break. Wherever my eyes look Whatever they are forced to see, It's always the same sight I so painfully do see... Someone's laying next to...

Painfully Free
i walk slowly to my death, among fields of flowers bloom. i can feel the petals rip my skin apart, as i brush slightly past. the wind slaps my face as i move, each step a painful reminder that life is fleeting rays from the sun burn holes in my mind, just a sign of the carnage yet...

Painfully So
All I can see When I look at you Is what you did to me, Not knowing what to do. Each day is really tough, So full of pain and sorrow. Hoping I'm strong enough To make it to tomorrow. Constantly I am sad, A feeling I can't explain. You hurt me so very bad, Causing the ultimate pain. I know you did apologize, But you seem to...

Painfully Ashamed
Privates left swollen, misfortune unasked Choosing to be alone Innocence stolen, beauty unmasked Choosing to be alone Taste my tears; embracing ease Hear my screaming whispers, please Oh desecrated sacred temple Once guarded by emotion & will Open to those who walked the path through my heart and got a gate pass Better to avoid judgment and laughter? Or be misunderstood forever after Bold on the surface,...
