Petrified Poems - Poems about Petrified

The Northern Lights petrify Leaving stains of color to grated souls. Foreign thorns entice the sky - threshing what's left of flesh.

Charisma lost while miracles fold - Enigma strikes like pyrite gold - Within life loss - An...

In a labyrinth of treachery, my broken hearts cries, From an unspoken betrayal, that no love survives. She deemed my love wanting, a river too weak, While I poured all into her, till I became a creek. My silent vows etched into every setting sun, Her needs, my command, until the day was done. I never complained, grumbled, nor moan She always...

For when I am mixing with others, I’m in my, so-called, happy zone, ‘Though my own company is okay, I am not made of stone. I am very much alive you’ll find And made of flesh and...

Up near the peak of Rockies, Me and my limbs live in frigid cold, The mountain seems to be frozen in time, Being a petrified tree, I am frozen in stone. As I ascended to the heavens, I had to leave my earthly leaves behind, I could have been a towering blue spruce in the valley, Up here I am a diminutive...

I could tell you who I am, But I'm petrified of opening up. Why am I terrified of pouring like a river? I wonder what mountains gave me such shame. But you'll forever live, Within the cracks of some beating heart, I wonder, If the first stab of heartbreak, Was the same shades to you, Purple, yellow, a tinge of pink. What is the melancholy...

In the mist of the journey’s penultimate mile at the edge of the fading pasture of future obscure in the twilight hour the sunset swansong resonates for the forlorn tree of the being silhouetted still against the blazing skyline of transient brilliance witnessing the last flicker of the dying day. Twirling threads of turmoil entwined seamless with the cleaved clouds of...

In full moon’s mystic frame hungry wolf’s silhouette howls, in the creepy stillness a tall figure in black cloak comes out through the spiked rusty gate of a castle on the smoky hill. Arms stretched wide he wafts in air like a hooded black bird like the Count used to do in Transylvania,...

when the atheist pretended he had good faith in trusting belief that his world was not flat and he was unable to circle the square roots of fake news flashes and other soothing misconceptions they praised his critical doubts as they proved divine existence ‘only a sinner will reach penance’ and they sent him to heaven ‘they crushed my...

My life flashed before my eyes as I sat in the driver’s seat I clung to the wheel for dear life my face was as white as a sheet Would this brave man named Dale live to tell the tale? Had he written out a will Drafted Out in great detail ? I was petrified you see But he had...

Lost in a cocoon of my design I stare into the dark My eye wary of teary drops Nightly clouds clad together Floating in the ocean above Raise a war cry of thunder A reminder of another world Another existence I couldn't fathom Silently, fear crept up Man the pawn, X the player Pawns die with each move But no, not this time...

Empty sight blocked out hearing, Deceased feeling, no point in breathing, Clogged veins, drowning in blood, Unlike my heart I still feel emotional beating To myself, Feel my own, When it ends i will be at home, The crows will welcome with the majestic songs they sing, Tell me how to fix my broken wing, So...
