Tangled Poems - Poems about Tangled

There’s something horrible about the tangles. Like- everyone can eat the curly strands. But no one knows what it costs. When I had more than two eyes. And the laundry got put away every day. I could still laugh like that. The face tangles up when you squint. A burning, quick idea. When you eat...

The masks we wear, a subtle, shifting guise, A tapestry woven of falsehood and truth, Where hidden motive behind kind eyes lies, And fleeting passions betray youthful ruth. We seek connection, yet often despise, The very closeness that blossoms in youth. Our hearts are a maze, where reason negates The primal urges that demand our fates. We build our empires on lies and...

In our human journey, we all have flaws, They're woven into life's every pause. Sometimes we hurt those we hold so dear, Though it's not on purpose, the pain is clear. Inside, we want to share the hurt we feel, As hearts quietly ache, apologies we conceal. But sometimes, those we love may hurt us too, Adding twists to life, making trust...

It was the overwhelming brilliance of your charm that envelops, A sweet captivity, a game of pure magic, majestically imperative.

He sees not just money but the family’s...

I am tired with the burden But don't feel the power to leaving it It ruins my soul Yet I maintain the poison within me I am a hypocrite or a scoundrel? Or a prisoner of my own vices Perhaps both, or something indefinable. I grapple with this internal strife, A weary soul caught in the fire of self loath, Amidst the ruins of...
