Wails Poems - Poems about Wails

WALLS AND WAILS I am confined within these four walls For far too long and pray a wall falls And the guns jam with wardens asleep As I take a walk of freedom, a leap To a new world without guns and guards. But I have fallen in love with my tiny bed And my thin smelly blanket that I wed I have...

Telling fairy tales of she who wails beside a lake in campfire’s glow this night, it’s shadowy, for moon has hid its light. My friend’s face pales; my sister bites her nails as we lean in while listening with fright! Our narrator melodramatically relates the story of a woman who had drowned herself because of misery. And horrors! She had drowned her children...

Screams, screeches, groans and wails, Brutalities, agonies, torture, and blood, Tear Gases, pallet guns, bullets and bombs Humanity sobs, world is falling apart Does anyone care? Kids are blinded Men are jailed Women are molested The old are tortured Luckily, you have food Billions are starving You have a warm blanket Trillions live under the frigid sky Dreams are murdered Voices are unheard Wishes are being blurred Every heart...

And so here I am.... I hope to touch your hearts it does'nt fail and so here I am Telling fairytales of she who wails Those never-ending cries of pain have gone now!

He is too gifted for that teacher to teach thinks his father. Poor baby, no home schooling, thinks the teacher. All of them right, But no one fully...

'You've thrown me over the edge of the highest peaked cliff imaginable As I spiral further down, my outer shell gets roughed up by sticks and stones until my body is disfigured beyond recognition as if I'd been torn apart and restitched together by a confused child Will I ever hit the bottom? And then it happens, I'm slammed to...

I wonder what my dower would be if he had not chosen life A constable -in bag would be the share - halved - without the choice Would hold memories I suppose but those we shared so, bring me half he owned outright Bring me secrets on a page and space them - just so- that such stuns at a...

The coda of mourning jays vibrates In bittersweet tracks when daybreak scans An almost whipping backdrop, hushed By low warbles from birds’ paean; Indistinct as dusty sketches— Throaty on a lane of funeral’s last rites; Where the hazily drawn view turns bland Moistening wail of eyes with a muted song, Tunes stale, while jays drone on the horizon.
