Suffocation Poems - Poems about Suffocation

Having been so long untouched, I’d become a child beyond touch and unclean. So, when suffocatingly roused from a nightmare of death to unbreathable silence in an oxygen tent, I cried afraid of dying alone. From somewhere (outside of all darkness) you appeared (starched-pinafored and perfumed a student nurse working nights after classes) bringer of light restorer of air redeemer. At your...

Hands Crowd my neck squeeze me of life suffocate my mind cruel Calculated Cold blooded strangulation ...

I met him when I was twelve years old. He was like a shadow with no name. He slipped inside my body, And my fear acted like his throne. When I'm alone, He wraps his fingers around my throat, Gradually fastening them, Asking me to finish the game he started. Through every sleepless night, He whispers in my ears: "I won't leave you. Not now,...

Dear Parents, We know that you love us a lot, But sometimes, all a child need is A little understanding from your side. Dear Parents, Love should not feel like an obligation, Like something we have to repay by being perfect. We never want you to stay in pain for us. We never want us to be the reason you swallowed your sorrows. But...

your footsteps beat with lightning and thunder inching closer with each bolt as i feel your figure at my feet i don’t dare turn my shoulder for you might be there with black soulless eyes a clever grin your hands by your sides so i rush with caution as the streets start to desert throughout the town the clicks of your footsteps seem to fade my...

Hey girl! Sleeping with a heavy heart still? Unquestionably, I understant! I understand the anxiety, the pain, the depression of things not going your way. Unquestionably, I understand! I understand the weight, the suffocation, the desolation. But hold up still, Wipe off tears still, And Hit the road, For, the journey ain't over yet!!! ...

He got buried six feet under No eyes to see the thunder He has no heart to feel sorry He has no soul to feel any worry He simply is and is all there will be He would want a will but would fail a feeling of ease He got buried six feet under rock and stones Did his killer feel remorse?...

Rotting away inside the living room wall I hear you and your new family Playing board games Loving Monopoly They sound so happy If only they knew how you disfigured me Every time you touch the wall I think about the plastic bag You wrapped around my head My cheeks blushed, turned red Nails broke off Trying to claw to no avail Am I dead right...

Death comes close in the night when shadows grow and sleep envelopes, relaxing guards who snore slumped in corners their spears and shields useless on the ground, their dinner crumbs of cheese and bread just laying there for the rats to nibble. Amid the sleepers and nibblers Death glides like a mist; oppressive and still, and dead leaving a taste, a...

The clouds hang low, thick and dark It reminds me of the suffocation I feel here It is supposed to be my home, the secure native place Drop me off in a corner here, and I should be able to navigate back I suppose the land is lovely Petrichor and sweltering heat plays portrait paint Deathly beauty, stifling beauty Rules I do...

Breathing is affected today. We're feeling like a shortage of adequate breath. No, it's not for the closeness of lovers, or not for their instincts awake, but the bell of death. It is ringing all over the world, we are about to fall. Though we had fallen before from humanity, but now it has no effect to feel sorrow, feel guilty at all. Once...

Soul on fire fueled by deceit, insanity assumed power while fear controls our streets. Who can we follow when there's no one left in charge. Despite quiet whispers repeating another dead end. I remain heartbroken but chest is still beating hard. Miserable at best hearing echoing confessions, self neglecting guilt, war is supposed to fight for...

Trees blowing in the wind of the moment Now flowing they lend nothing at, towards To them they speak the language, sacrament The love of the daylight hours with awards Seeing a lady sounding scraping swords Feeling the bark of the tree suffocate Like a smash in the stomach, penetrate Leaving a mark of breathlessness, no sound Taking the toll of whispers, signals...

I dreamt of you last night I felt strangled in my sleep You loved me so fiercely A feeling I didn't know I ran from you Just to keep my sanity I realize each day the mistake I made It suffocates me to the point of pain You walked in the day I walked in the night I was the dark And you were...

I'm drowning and no one is around to save me. The water is filling my lungs and muffling my voice so my screams go unheard. you're the brick tied to my ankles and I can't get the knots untied. I can't even get them loose. I can hear the voices above the water telling me...
