Unutterable Poems | Examples

Being, Knowing, Willing

Being is life that gives life, truth that gives truth 
It is not perfect, good or divine 
It is simply beyond all these attributes 
Immeasurable and unutterable
It is the Silent One of Light: The Father 

Knowing is the light reflection of being 
Through whom the One itself knows himself 
Thought that became a shining reality 
Knowing is the forethought of the all
She is Barbelo: The bright Holy Spirit 

Willing is the only offspring of knowing 
The child willed for the all to come forth
Being anointed by being to rule all 
Who also willed to come to the world 
He is the way, the truth, and the life: The Son

Companion Of Peaceful Things

I, will seek the silent ways'
  unknown in summer days,
I will linger with the flowers
Ungreeted in lost hours.
I will go quietly
That I may be
Companion of peaceful things, -
The brook that sings
Its murmuring song
The woodland shade along,
The moorland wide
At purple eventide,
The clouds that in the morning Sun
Vanish in beauty, and are one
With pure, unutterable love
And those dear presences that move
Ever around us, even when
We lose the way of trusty men.
I wouldst forget that I
May draw nigh
The deeper memories.

I will arise 
And leave you, and  thus find
The deathlessness I was too blind
To see among your swift-run days;
My ways
Shall be among the immortal flowers
Born of your darkest hours.

The Truthful Martyr

O loving God, please ease
the acute pain and unutterable anger
they are afflicting upon this truthful martyr,
who is aware of their meanness
while he shows his unpretentious kindness;
o righteous lord, what's the reward of the giver?

I came to the help of defenseless
little hearts that were unjustly
snapped from their mother's arms;
I spoke with them warmly and gently,
and dedicated my precious time to their cause
because their pure and unrestrained love touched me.

Merciful God, my confider, let my sacrifices
win me the awaited victory I and others are after;
liars and  unkind people still mumble wicked words,
and dislike me for my persistence of a martyr.

O kind, patient, and generous Lord,
I realize the burden of of my anxieties
upon your Wisdom and mightiness;
now, my exasperation is restrained through wait;
but your comes when nobody expects it,
and my rejoycing is your promise waiting to be fulfilled.

My Old Friend Longing

Matt asks me how you are
and I’m reminded of a life I almost lived:
the one where I’d know the answer. 

Here she comes gliding back. 
She sits on my chest,
runs her hands down my throat.
Her fist white, my dead fish tongue greying 
with an unutterable apology. 

I lean into her grip. I don’t 
know how to set myself free in the end.

A Night of Fathomless Blackness

These vultures were closing in on me,
A thousand unutterable fears bore unamendable holes in my mind,
Absorbed in a stream of thoughts and reminiscences,
All was a vague jumble of chaotic impressions.

Awaiting my summons to the eternal silence,
Buried hopes couldn't rise from their sepulchers,
Fathomless depths of suffering increased
Like a feverish and godforsaken tide of life.

Gathering all my scattered impulses into a passionate act of courage,
Threw a ton's weight of resolve upon my muscles,
And braced myself to the exquisite burden of life,
I failed to drink from the jug of the universe.

My heart flutter with a vague terror,
And my soul is beaten to the ground by the catastrophe,
My sensibilities are now offended,
Because this is my night of fathomless blackness.

Smitten

I'm in a cruel and mysterious world,
Where pains and affliction are served cold,
In the farthest edge of the nights,
Leaving fathomless depths of suffering to tear me apart.

As if smitten by a sudden spasm,
I'm awaiting my summons to the eternal silence.
Fettered by poverty and toil,
The frosty thraldom of winter is all over me.

My hurrying thoughts clamore for utterances,
As my whole frame seemed collapsed and shrinking.
In this breathless chase of life and survival,
Nature seemed to revel in unwonted contrasts.

Palpitating with numbness and wounded sensibility,
I'm wrapped in a veil of lassitude,
Again, stamped with unutterable and solemn woe,
But the paraphernalia of power and prosperity won't die in me.

Beauty On the Thorns

I adored the colour of your skin,
And your saccharine sweet lips,
They were blossom soft,
It's so hard to recognize you now.

You cry and feel excruciating pains,
Trembling like an aspen-leaf,
Unutterable things pressing on your soul
like a pent-up storm craving for outlet,
Weak and frail like the vapor of a vale.

You are from the Giant of Africa,
Your parents were fugitives and well fed slaves,
Today, they are free but extremely hungry,
Leaving your heart to be as dry as a reed.

Your blood is red like wine,
Your charms lay like metals in a mine,
Your eyes are like fantastic moons that shiver in some stagnant lake,
But it hurts to know that your beauty is transitory,
Because your future is jeopardized today.

The Insatiable White Creatures

Beneath the cold glare of the desolate night,
They came, greedy and insatiable white creatures,
Cloaked in prim pretense,
Every curve of their features seemed to express a fine arrogant acrimony and harsh truculence.

Expectation darkened into anxiety,
A thousand unutterable fears bore irresistible despotism over our thoughts,
Men, ladies and children collapsed into a dreary and hysterical depression,
Leaving us drowned in the deep reticence of the colonial sea.

As arbitrary as a cyclone and as killing as a pestilence,
With a sweet voice caroling like a gold-caged nightingale,
They looted our abundant resources,
And abolished many of our African customs and traditions.

They enslaved us!
Underdeveloped us!
And reduced us to nothing.

Gleams of sunlight, bewildered like ourselves, struggled, surprised, through the mist and disappeared,
Half choked by a rising paroxysm of rage,
The hollow ring of their fundamental  nothingness were defined,
With the blood in our eyes, matchets, bows and arrows and diplomacy,
Then the fight and chase began!

Premium MemberCuddle Me

Awake those memories of the first touch, 
the unending kisses and the taste of the flowery buds 
oh! the loving steer, piercing though my joints. 
the ravishing silence of words unutterable .
the escapades and many stealthily adventures in the clouds 
I yearn, i crave for those soft loving touch, 
to hear the sonorous chirping of the birdlike music. 
to feel the rains of love like a new born baby. 
and glow anew by a tenderly cuddling love.
Touch me again, feel me afresh. 
Oh love, i crave with a burning passion.
make the river flow from my heart through these thighs
I long to be enamored in your arms oh! love .
my love, my princess.
Is the fire gone cold?
Burn anew, come forth as at first.
Cuddle me, cuddle me,cuddle me

Premium MemberDeep Within Our Hearts

Buried for eternity
in locked vaults
deep within our hearts
   lies the pain
   the anguish
   unutterable
   of hard-won
   experience...

Or so we think, until
   the faint scars
   ever so slightly
   are pricked
~ and bleed profusely

Forged In Gold

Alone in this dark room of solitude,
My breathe, I held as if today will be my last,
I watched the death of an inspired ray in my eyes,
And the birth of the pang killing me from inside;
An utter depression of my soul.

Expectation darkened into anxiety,
The fathomless depths of suffering held me in a vice,
There is no ichors left in my veins anymore,
And no rivers of tears left to shed.
Dawn had broken,
I’m just dark with unutterable sorrows.

I’m shrieking in a broken and feeble voice,
My sins and seaminess bleeding visibly,
Pleading with dead eyes and sepulchered desire,
Filled to the brim with emptiness and fundamental nothingness;
Hoping for someone to save me from this bottomless perdition.

The other day I smiled, the universe smiled with me,
Today, I’m kicking the bucket, and I’m kicking it alone,
Tomorrow, I will display enormous greatness, power and vitality,
I can’t be doomed by mephistophelian fate, not any more,
I’m done treading on the narrow aisles of pain with no gain,
Because my mind is made of steel and forged in gold.

Premium MemberA Stroll To the Bakery

Clouds swirling, bird circling
The Heavens rumbled, heaved a sigh
Ventured forth a lad, he bore no Cross
Through angry streets, refuse-tossed

Flies buzzed 'round him, fetid friends
Night air crackled, 'neath ammunition's lens
The lad strained hearts for a crust or crumb
Hope lay dormant, her voice struck dumb...

Bled dry, they covered him, face down in a gutter
War's verdict sealed, its unutterable utter

O Sweet Poem

O Sweet poem 
Wielder of undisclosed tales
Conqueror of unyielding hearts
Comforter of inoperable minds
Consoler of inconsolable souls
Utterer of the most unutterable dictions,
You have kept secrets for poets
In the deepest corners of your heart
I implore you, 
Keep a secret for me!
 
With your soporific charm
 You have softened hearts of gallant men.
You have won beautiful maidens for Kings.
You have spoken for the mutest lovers
You have reconciled the irreconcilable
O Sweet poem
Keep one more secret for me.

With your powerful allure
You have heated the coldest of hearts
You have reached unattainable horizons
You have opened the tightest doors 
No secret is too sacred for you to keep
I pray keep a secret for me.
