Self Destruction Poems

The Heat

You wake up, head in a haze,
can’t recall the prior day,
felt less good than it used to,
joints aching all over you.
Don’t know why you all went out,
pay today, there is no doubt,
something burned and you answered,
can’t explain, put into words…

Can’t explain, where it came from,
can’t explain, why it was done,
tried in vain, fooling no one,
when

Self Destruction

Leaders are worshiped, 
Armies are much hailed,
Weapons are much praised,
And innocent creatures are,
Killed in the streets, in the
Homes, while they are working,
While they are sleeping,
The children's heart full of,
Terror, they are told, we are,
Worrier,  we win the war,
But who tell the preacher,
Wars cant not be won, and
No way, they can be win,
Both side loose,

Inside-Out

Body rejects itself,
Bone-dry and like a furnace,
It burns alive, kill
It is sand, dead

Dig two graves,
Refuse to rot,
This isn’t revenge.

Hate the body,
It’s nothing but problematic.

One ear open,
Stay somewhat conscious.

Maggots crawl in the body, tearing under the skin,
Refuse to rot, feel it inside-out.

Fling a rope,
It will not reach,
YOUR BODY isn’t strong enough.

Dark Side

The dark side’s very nature is self-destruction,
Bringing pain to all, a dangerous seduction.
It spreads its madness, twisting mind and soul,
Yet it’s addictive, taking its toll.

The longer one lingers in its dark embrace,
The harder it is to leave that place.
Though they know it brings them pain,
They too must share in some of the blame.

But why do

Unraveled

I could fill a bottle with air,  
sunken by liquid depression.    
A matter so densely populated.     
by false hope and worthless thoughts.   

I cower to my need to feel this way,    
for this was the path I chose.    
and

Hell Bent

Running out of time to act,
flashes in the mind.
Running out of everything,
too late to hit rewind.

Wake and take a hammer to it,
crush it to the bone.
Pulverize what’s left of it,
make sure all life is gone.

Disregard the letters
in the alphabet arranged,
set to spell the answers out
cuz no one wants the plain.

Go on, drink the poison down.

Self Destruction

After a life of self destruction
My soul's under construction
Can't undo the things from the past
I have lived so fast
Didn't care
Didn't dare
Till life became to much 
Fell out of touch
Lost my way
Living just for the day
Time got away
Trying to slow down
Get rid of this frown
Learn to live again
Don't live in back when
Step past the pain
Beyond the

Mea Culpa

life’s precious fabric 
unravelling strand by strand
Earth weeps

Self-Destruction

Wishes hang, like icicles
Clinging to the steely gray
Branches where silence breathes
Promises, echoing through
The winds, hastening hope and 
Anticipation, resting on the 
Colors of joy, peace and grace
Blended together with faith

Crisp words form to create
Images and imagery, picture
Perfect intimacy, inspirations
Flowing from the pen,
Unearthing secrets and whimsical
Dreams, ideas that burn
Passionate and alive, a fire
On the inside where

Self Destruction

It was a world of two ideologies
Both wanting to hold sway
Neither of which were prepared
To give anything away 
Now it’s a world of two Empires
Neither of which are ready to stop
But the strange thing is the same 
Type of people are still at the top
The world is still full of poverty
Disease, famine and despair
But the

Self-Destruction

I walk a rope that shakes by my hand,
the end of which is strung to desire.
I never am to make it to the end,
for I'll throw myself off life's high wire.

The Art of Self-Destruction

I am the queen of self destruction.
Ritualistic Razor sharp scrutiny of my reflection -
constantly spewing hate at my mid-section, 
whilst effortlessly faking the pursuit of perfection. 

A crumbled up heart beckons restitution in the midst
of train-wrecked relationships,
ruinous friendships,
and crumbled up to do lists,
in white-knuckled fists. 

The essence of happiness remains a mere mirage
for one who

Fiery Self Destruction

Bound to a fiery chair
Burned by my despair
Scorched by my mistakes' glare
Reality torched me to my last hair
The world melted me with care
My haughty hands throw me down the hatch
And my pride lit the match

Self Destruction

Nature abhors a vacuum,
Loathes right angles,
 But reveres the Corona.
For Nature so loved the corona
It  dirked  the  form 
Atop the penile shaft
Rendering the shape
Like a helmeted soldier
Leading the charge.
Nature bequeathed the Corona
Unto our only unbegotten sun
Whirling its solar winds,
Morphing the heavens into
 A frenzied hell.
Nature then knitted corona’s strands
Into tightly wound unseen

Enemy Within

I wish I could shut you up
Then all my troubles would go
I wish I could escape for a while
And relax without this constant row
I was born with you pestering me
I grew up with your doubts and negativity
You stopped me achieving more
You said just enough to make me stop
And fed my disbelief and fear
You hinted at
