The Scenes We Left Behind Remain

Embedded in tormented mind , 
blood clogged fields,
dangling limbs - contorted.
Whistling ammunition,
gun fire resounds.


Premium Member Pitch Black

pitch black night like thoughts 
tormented with uncertainty 
until stars give hope

Super glue can't fix 
This tormented spirit of mine. 
Nothing can ever 
Fix all you once said to me. 
Dear, nothing can, really.

Premium Member Lost Love

A man alone,
Plagued by fears.
Swollen eyes,
With salted tears.

Mind tormented,
Heart bereft.
Lost forever,
The day she left.

The Forlorn

You desert me too
Who in this unkind world of
 Self-seekers cares to
Hold the shaking hands of
A tormented, forlorn soul

Barb Wire

Twisted and tormented
                        You keep things in, you keep things out
                                       A guardian, a jailer

Dreams

As dreams flutter by
On the wings of a scarlet butterfly
You often hear the tormented and lonely cry
And we are left desolate
Brokenhearted
You and I

IN FORGIVENESS AWARENESS

Wow! I slipped and fell!
A wrong decision was made:-
Sad tears flowed for days.
Agony tormented me:
Dear God forgave my mistake.

The Abyss

How blissful it is to live in the abyss.
Unaware, insouciant of the world around, 
Tormented are the empaths in the desensitized world,
Who are to their earthly senses bound.

Tormented Nights

haunted by the souls that linger and follow
broken dreams and never to happen tomorrows
hapless days lead to tormented nights
searching for a light, though never to be in sight

Peace of Mind

How important is your peace of mind?
The mind is the powerhouse of our being
Without peace, we are 
Tormented
Anxious 
Lost
Uneasy 
Miserable 

Cherish your peace of mind.

Save Me From Myself

Save me from myself
That’s all I ask
To be helped
From the pain that I do
Unto myself
You can’t harm me
I promise
My life is tormented
Only with the effects
That I have caused

The Final Step

tormented in life’s final step
as rain falls from the sky 
crying on broken hearts 
I lay a single rose upon your grave 
as angels hold you in their arms 
as your last journey starts

There once was a man who loved garlic dill
Holding them in his hand gave him a thrill
Doorknobs are fermented
With garlic tormented
His wallet and all of his precious bills

Daemon

Pounding
Hammering
Pain
Always in my head
At times there is darkness
A brief relief
From the constant hurt
I feel lost and afraid
Whats happening to me
Why am I tormented
Hated so?

Just a Muted Dove Far Away

Far away from his home, 
trapped and silenced by fear.
Just a muted dove far away.
And someone just now speaks of the sweet dove, 
That ancient symbol of peace,
so tormented that it is silenced.

Storm

Forgotten, alone
Being left to remain in what’s left of this abyss called home
Left to be tormented by a heartless storm
Who knows no compassion
Who can feel no mercy
Whose strength lives to destroy

Her Smile

delving deeper into dying
i just can't find release
from this agony thats thriving 
there is no inner peace
mercey has denied me
so i suffer still
tormented by her smile 
oh the joy 
He must feel

Premium Member Birds Baked In Pies

Birds baked in pies, babies rocked out of trees
Kids all falling down from some dreadful disease
Young Hansel and Gretel
May wind up in a kettle
What tormented minds write stories like these?

Rich Pauper Man Dilemma

There was a man
tormented,
abandoned...
He had no friends,
only flatterers...
He was so poor,
but so pauper,
that nothing had...
There was nothing, in fact he only had
  silver, gold, and  cash...!

Stormy Stormy Night

Stormy stormy night
Tormented by a lover's quarrel fight
Oblivious allegations
Ruined bedroom sensations
Myths of tall tales told
Yeilding lies that now become too dam old

The Escape

Vanished glitter, evaporated beauty and shape
Faces that the fabric of wrinkles of agony drape

Tormented and anguished soul in the body’s unsightly prison 
  Without the succor of death is there an escape?

Hamlet

In the Dane's 
Tormented soul 
Expectation waited for nightfall 
And nightfall for the apparition 
Of a noble ghost.
