Unescapable Poems | Examples


Premium MemberSimplicity

Heartbeat of my soul
Oh, simplicity come unto me
Flow through me that I may be enlightened
That life’s complexities be rendered helpless

Be not dismayed and be not in awe of me
For what I say I heard from you
For our souls are one
The voice I hear within is you

And all that would enlighten me
Like love, that touches every increment of our souls
For truth unescapable, we will all stand
Entranced by her beauty and completeness

When did you start hearing voices,
when did they start making choices
to determine your world

and crack that first bottle
or did the first pipe full smash on the throttle
sending you racing

downhill into the unescapable maze,
driving deeper into the dense purple haze
of paranoia?

I don't see the people you say are watching,
or the man living under the floorboards
and the plan he is notching

to murder you while you sleep,
if the drones "they" keep sending
don't sweep in and reap

your forma mentis for metanalysis,
or psychoscopic phenomenographic cogitation,
or steal your cannabis first,

and I can barely comprehend;
your unreal reality is a fine damned 
mess for the rest of us!

Four White Walls

"Reality" is a terrifying concept.  
Unescapable, 
It looms unmercifully. 

They want us to live there,
Walking around in blind misery,
Breathing in their truths. 

But we refuse to comply.
Instead, we dance beautifully,
In the rain of our delusions.

In the Darkest and Coldest World

In the darkest and coldest world
one can find a flickering flame,
never allowed to shine brightly and widely
and break the macabre darkness;
nothing could escape from here,
from its torturous and squalid abyss...
where each demon has a frown of austerity: 
ah, in this obscure confinement, I'd be afraid!

In the darkest and coldest world
the isolation is unbearably horrid;
bats constantly squeak to scare off owls that coo,
hunters hear their scary sound and speedily shoot;
nobody shows compassion for the ugly creatures
that only seek warm blood to feed their bellies!

In the darkest and coldest world
demons obey their master Lucifer,
he controls them with his menacing looks
and they dare not speak a rebellious word;
this Fallen Angel with extreme handsomeness
was thrown down to beautiful Earth 
from Heaven until he would complete his wrath:
don't be prey to this vicious captor!

In the darkest and coldest world
nobody is free to breathe air and to rebel,
to plot and seek revenge in unescapable Hell;
and being doomed to obedience, there's no will 
to compromise, any disorder is harshly punished
by a thousand lashes that make the flesh bleed!

Hate

Hate is thys strongest endeavor,
And you have your greatest hold
On my essence,
Keeping me in the darkness of 
This abyss and eternal
Darkness, 
Recession,
Destroying,
Ravaging,
And scorching,
My mind,
Body,
Even my soul,
You left me your victim
Leaving an unescapable dismay 
And displeasure upon me. 
For you are the unwanted 
Obscurity in the somberness 
Of my chronicle
Of my endeavoring agony 
And anguishes,
That I've come to fathom.
My everlasting desolate malice
And vexation
Will forever be upon you.

The Room of Study

To sit in the confines of knowledge
At a desk the colour of porridge

An air of unescapable heat
At a desk the colour of wheat

The lure of the Mail Online
At a desk the colour of brine

Looking at Jamie Kirby's broken leg
At a desk the colour of regret

Fairytales Becoming Reality

People are constantly saying,
That their dreams will never come true.
I don’t think that they have ever experienced,
Something as magnificent as the moment,
That I am experiencing at this very second.
My heart continues to pound,
More than it has ever pounded in the past.
I can truly say,
That I have never felt this way about anyone,
In my entire life.

At this very moment,
I could probably care less,
About the fact that we are so far away.
Since you are always in my thoughts,
It seems like you are always right next to me.
I am officially able to say,
My dreams are coming true,
Right before my eyes.

I have always felt like I was stuck,
In a unescapable fairytale.
Dreams have become reality,
Right in front of me,
And it is taking me forever,
To soak it all in.

Love Feels Gone

For years I have watched the seasons go by,
dry and shrivelled inside this wondow frame
I look beyond yet I am still frozen inside
Alive and dying on my bed of fallen pieces left wanting,
Hunting the outside for what seems to be never mine.
Winter has fractured my mind,
twisted my spine to shape its unescapable relm
of hidden tints and under tones
that roam the hours of this sour place  
I face delemma daintfully, dedicated
as I have failed to eradicate what I can't escape.
It's the same hours now that pass my rusted window
still yearning the lust that gusts by,
by and by the wind cries as I cry alone
alone....love feels alone,
Love feels gone,
gone is love from my home.

Thank You

For the people who stood up for me
No matter if I was right or wrong.
For the people who were my pillar
At a time when I begged for support.

For thhe snickers and whispers
Of "fat ass" when I passed.
For the people who kept pushing me deeper and deeper
Into an unescapable hole.

Without you
I would not be the person I am today.
Without both Love and Hate,
The world would go without change.
For that, I thank you.
