Scattered Poems - Poems about Scattered

Scattered Thoughts Overwhelmed from responsibilities. Need a place to run away. Surrounded by pessimistic poison. Sometimes a toxic relationship. Paralyzed to make a change. Drinking is the remedy. What is the root of the problem? Guilt and anxiety all around. Insecurities begin with bullies. Observe and recognize. Are thoughts holding you captive? Drowning from...

In a labyrinth of time, every second is a grain of sand scattered, everything hurts: old age is a veil of shadow over my thoughts, and death, an old acquaintance, draws closer with every tick of the clock, an old man like me can vanish in an instant, like a star that fades away, leaving behind only memories and...

If depression came in a package it might have the prettiest outer layer. If depression came in a package it might have the brightest red bow. If depression came in a package it would be advertised by a forked tongue. Don't be fooled by the paper it lies over top of danger. If the package should unravel and scatter where you stand, you will soon...

In fragments and tatters, in pieces and shards, scattered by the winds of time, I gather them carefully, even if they hurt me, my fingers bleed, but I do not stop, These precious fragments, these bitter shards, these tattered edges and broken tears, I collect them with longing, refusing to let them fall into oblivion, Each piece carries with...

strong winds blow it appears the poet died today he was afflicted with a broken heart seems he had no more words to say he’d already done his part so they got the oven ready cause he wanted his body to burn and they held the tray real steady and poured him inside an urn seems the poet flew over the calming seas more freely...

Hi. I’m feeling scattered. I’m completely overrun upstairs. where thoughts should be processed individually, at a normal speed. Nope, not for me. Currently they’re racing. It seems like they’ve created tracks that are now zipping in and around me I can’t seem to escape, they're at every bend Surely, if I try to slow down, I will get...

I hear your name in the hollow wind, a ghost that lingers on my skin. Shadows stretch where you used to stand, but I reach for nothing, just empty hands. The echoes whisper soft and low, telling me what I already know— you're gone, you're gone, but never far, still burning deep like a dying star. Scattered pieces of my heart, lost in the...

In July. The gym I go to is down the street. I like to wear those shoes. Shoes which are dying to run around. My birthday. It was horrible, I don’t know why. In July. All I have are July shoes. My May shoes were ruined in a muddy puddle. I drove my car back home. A stone in the gravel driveway. Gets flicked aside. All I have...

It’s warm. The pot on the stove. Steaming a little bit. Not burning hot like underneath the bed where the monster lives. Just a little warmer and warmer. Like a winter hat. It’s warm. A ghost lives in the pantry. I think my house is 71 degrees right now. Outside is spring and flowers. Dying...

Scattered thoughts Roam empty fields In search of an idea To gather ‘round Wind-blown ideas Thoughtless tumbleweeds Drift aimlessly In search of a thought A devilish wind herds The roaming drifters Laughs As they stampede In search of a cause ...

We are too many, scattered like stars across an infinite sky, each in its corner of the universe, Yet between us stretch invisible chasms, like silent rivers that keep us apart, Each soul carrying its own light, but seldom intersecting with another ray, In a vast sea of solitude, where voices fade like faint echoes in the wind. Sometimes,...

I knew the tides would sing them back to me, Those ships I watched upon the winding seas, Laden with love’s last fragile memory, Of words that drift like scattered autumn leaves. They sailed away in evening's gentle glow, Their sails brushed gold by setting sun's embrace, But still I feel the way their shadows flow, Returning as faint whispers, lost in...

Her eyes wandered across the room She was looking for him But she couldn’t see him Where was he? Did he walk away again? Leaving her to cry into her own shoulder To drive herself home To sleep with her face in her pillow, not his I can’t let this happen Not again I will fall apart The single cup of dried coffee in...

In this universe of scattered thoughts, Where people seem to think only with their minds, There are others who weave their thoughts with their entire being, With the blood, with the marrow of their bones, with the heart, With lungs that breathe dreams, with the belly that feels life. Through an eternal dance of metaphors, I wander in the flow...
