With Bitterness Poems - Poems about With Bitterness

Idle Disconnect

I hate this void within
this gaping hole
that screams of silence
thumping echoes in my brain
endlessly night and day

Images i can't decipher
hover of the edge of darkness
tinkering their bits of bitterness
a black hole in motion
without rhyme or reason

I Turn My Back on Bitterness

I wish we could have justice, 
not just under the law, but for those who mistreat, use, and deceive us. 
For those who break promises and hearts with no compunction, no apology.
If I could sue you or accuse you in a court of law, with a judge, prosecutor, defense attorney, and jury…If I could rip

Poem written for SENSE OF TASTE POETRY CONTEST, Nette Onclaud, Sponsor July 28, 2025
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
she hunkers by the streetlamp 
wrapped in a tattered blanket 
lost in the cracks of concrete 
swallows tangy bitterness 
bitter brew of circumstance
choking on acrid despair
savoring sweet solitude

Life is a battlefield

This life is a fierce battlefield,
Little did I know before my birth,
My weapons should have been better honed,
So no earthly force could conquer me.

Friends I made while I was nobody,
Turned to foes when I sought to be somebody,
Those I loved with all my heart and soul 
Blew pepper in my eyes when vision blurred. 

Deceit

Bitterness now worshipped as religion

In Ankara and Moscow,
the ground is crimson red ~
a carpet spread on fields once green.
Life’s fluid, like red gold,
flows as scarlet runoffs into Ottoman rivers –
lifestreams of Rossiyane and Turks
spilled from their inner oceans.
Their bones ~
lifeless as strings of dead fish,
litter seas once full of life.
The tears of fatherless children fill the Black Sea,
their futures

Enough For Now, Enough Forever

Enough, he said with voice pitched low
Enough for now, he whispered slow
And curled in upon himself
Having nothing left to show

Knowing no one and nonself

Enough, he cried though no one heeded
Enough for now, as he retreated
And left another piece behind
Having no faith to be intreated

Perceiving his own broken mind

Enough, he proclaimed with a tremor 
Enough for

Thistle Tea

She brewed it slow,
the thistle steeped—
a greyish brown
in porcelain grace.

Each sip, a sting—
a bitter bloom,
but she smiled,
claiming peace.

At first, a wince,
then less, then none—
until the taste
was home enough.

No sugar added,
no honey balm,
just thorn and grass
and quiet aches.

“How did she bear?”
they often ask.
“It’s the way I like it,”
she often says.

But bitterness
never just begins—
it’s learned,
one sip a

I don't want this kindness! she utters with bitterness

I don't want this—kindness!—she utters with bitterness,
like a storm breaking out unexpectedly,
may the heirs remain in the secret abyss,
prodigies of the stars that dance in the night sky,
brothers of darkness that embrace silence,
servants of the moon that watches over sleeping dreams.
Why must one yield to the other,
when both can coexist like two flowing rivers?
On the

Lullaby of Time

Something broken,  

Something lost  

‘Til what they found  

Must pay the cost.  

 

What was broken?

A heart, a mind, a soul 

What was lost? 

Your faith, your way, your control

 

So what did they find?...

 

Never moving,  

Always bitter  

Alone, in this pain  

Alone, so they shiver. 

Winter Whispers, Stupid Songs

The morning slaps me awake 
with a frozen windscreen,
keys in hand, scraping frost like
I’m chiselling through someone else’s mistakes.
My breath hangs in the air,
a ghost of myself
mocking the effort.

The cold flirts cruelly with my cheeks,
leaving them raw,
only for the radiator’s blast
to burn them out of spite.
The heating bill waits in the wings,
a villain in this

Bitterness In Life

The bitterness in life
Is originally a part of life
If you cannot avoid it
Learn to taste it
Only after tasting the bitterness
Can you feel the true beauty of life
What it means is that
If you want to reach good times
You must first go through adversity.

Peacespeaker

Pent up emotions like storm clouds roll
Entering my mind, all calm it stole
Anger and pain like crimson flowers bloom
Cajoling me to hit out and wound
Each person who hurt me,I didn't suspect
Supposed to love me, to protect
People are surprising, they don't do what I expect
Everytime I trusted, each time I loved
Another crack in my fragile heart

Crossing a sea of bitterness, voids curled beneath my ribs lie hidden

Crossing a sea of bitterness, voids curled beneath my ribs lie hidden,
I drank from the cup of vices, chewed on stupidity, laboring in vast fields of error.
My mind lay with disillusionment, embraced by phantoms, boundless in its futile thirst,
To unearth the simple essence, through furnaces and the ashes of a world that was once my

Bitterness

I don't know if from where do people draw their bitterness against other people. But bigots nowadays don't know the difference between patriotism and puppetry...

Bitterness of Friendship

Lost the one I thought they cared for me.
I feel like a lonely fella, even the wolf has its moon at night.
Betrayal I get
Tears fill my eye
Heartbroken
Cold I turn
Heartless I become
Blamed for being the bad person
People forgetting
Their past actions
Lonely life
Imaginary friend
Fake scenes
Glued to the screen of the phone.
My feelings never matter,
But I always laughing.
I feel
