Most Commented Dark Poetry Poems (2,485)

The night is longer than i expected
The silhouettes of men long forgotten whisper in the language unknown.
I am laying on the side of the enormously big cliff,
watching the waves as they splash against the rock...A powerful hand of nature

The fire is sparkling in the darkness
howling of wolves makes me shiver with fear
on the horizon a speck of light
a ship, or a visage or apparition ?
Am i saved? these chains are made of steal, unbreakable..i can hardly move

Oh, my sight is abandoning me
it tricked me like twice in the night
no God is there to show me the way
no angles on my shoulder to tell me right from wrong
.

Maybe it's time to change, to leave my thoughts behind
Let me forget about the salvation and let me stay where i am
away from the light.

Soon the darkness will take over,
it'll swallow the last heart beat.
And the smile of hope on my wrinkled face will evaporate into the air.
I'll become the ash of life, and the wind will blow me into the ocean,
with the first beam of the Sun.

Alone, lost in space and in time,
chained for eternity without a way to escape,
No comfortable life is awaiting me at the end of the rainbow.
No green grass and running waters will i see or taste again.

The hope left me with the speed of light,
there's no point in me kicking around - the chains are double-plaited
haha, there's no destiny written in the stars,
haha, there's no even the thing of us drawing our path of life
We have been lied to for so long!

I am all alone...
The darkness is coming to get me faster and faster,
It is opening its huge mouth and i can see the red tongue twisting...
'HELP ME!HELP ME!' - no use of shouting for help,
I am all alone...
Soon there will be no me any more
my name dies with the first morning Sun

Farewell
Farewell

Today is the day I acknowledge my own defeat
My struggle within has come to a hault as I finally see
That a world so beautiful has its shades of gray
And if you let it, it'll rip your soul til nothing else remains
I have loved blindly and I have hidden behind my walls
I have held my head up high only to watch myself fall
The truth is out there but is hidden behind so many lies
It's like a hideous demon thats wearing a charming disguise
I sit here juggling and weighing the worth of my life
How can I continue to open up my heart when I feel dead inside
Maybe I should just close my eyes and let it fade away
But the pain never truly heals, it's here to stay
So many mistakes, so many things I'd take back
Wish I could go back in time to stop my heart from turning black
There will always be a struggle within, always be a thorn in my side
How can I continue to live when I feel dead inside

The computer hums
Brain cells numb
Text slowly appears across the screen
Words are slow at four a.m.
The banana peel is getting brown
The crumpled papers seem upside down
One bulb shimmers and burns out as if dying
Seems like old man Slumber I'm just defying
I rub the sleep from my eyes and yawn
Only hours until I drag the garbage to the curb at dawn
To continue writing would seem so very absurd
I don't think I can type even one more word
The cat scratches at the door
I've no love to give at just past four
Buzz off you lazy curr
Shouldn't be with you... but her
I nod to dreamland and surrender so easily
I snore but reasonably
I dream I'm a young scoudrel full of courage
Damn! I've gone and slept and missed the garbage
The banana peel is looking black
Another hour and the peel will look back
Shouldn't slept in the chair but the sack
How did I get so damn slack!!

You see a shadow through
the window to the world
do you know who it is?
Is it someone out there
for you or is it a
stranger?
For you must look and
see what is in the
distance.
Yet the shadow is gone
and no one is in the
distance it is pitch
black no light do i see.
Where has it gone and
will it come back soon.
Just keep a watchful eye
for shadows can be
painful memories in your
mind that come to life.

There is a place,
We were told not to go,
The four of us,
A girl included,
With signs and symbols seen, All around the place,
Hiding shadow with eyes, Watching our every moment.
With the sound of thunder,
A dark storm is coming,
We have no choice,
But onwards keep moving,
Cold and hungry are what we are feeling,
A sense of dreaded danger comes a calling,
A chilling scream unheard by human beings,
The storm comes,
There is no retreating,
So dark and heavy,
The rain is falling,
We are stuck in here,
Without hope of surviving,
This is the start of many uneventful happening...
I had a dream of this drama sequence unfolding..
Fear of what is coming i am not showing,
Faint laughs and whisper is what we are hearing,
And then suddenly the girl with us is crying,
For reason unknown she then start laughing,
Is she mad or possess we begin worrying,
Noone dares to stop her as her body start shaking,
By now she stares at us...

Im inside,
Rewinding time,
Searching for something
I cant seem to find,
Somehow somewhere,
I've lost my mind,
I look behind,
I see before,
It sometimes hurts to open the door,
All I see,
Fuzzy white screens,
Nothing apparently is what it seems,
Anguish filled dreams,
Screams of dismay,
Im suffering, writhing,
In agonizing pain...

Sometimes I have all these crazy thoughts
I don't know if its me or not
I feel so alone no ones by my side
It feels way worse than if I died

Downward downward the spiral goes
There is no end to these lonesome woes
Just when you think it all has stopped
You scream so loud until your ears just pop

No one no one wants me around
They dropped me in the lost and found
Who really cares if I exsist
I hold the blade to both my wrists

Lost and lonely I choose to stay
I hope my luck will change today
But I know it wont cause I'm the same
Its me that is and I'm to blame

Tell me tell me is there more than this
I dream of you and then that kiss
Alone again who cares anymore
To share a dance out on the floor

Show me show me what I can do
Make me part of life with you
How'd cool it be to play the part
When someone calls you there sweetheart

I wished for you on this lonely night
Please tell me if the feelings right
I can't go on alone no more
I'm so lost and lonely right to the core

Silence silence it rules my brain
When I write these words of lonely pain
It takes you to a haunting place
Where there are eyes but no ones face

I stand at the door…..I toll the bell,
Having inched along the razors edge,
As it opens, I feel the welcoming void,
The darkness of the wishing well.

dear world my love was grand
but its me you don't understand
its time i end all my plans
and say goodbye to my friends
life wasn't that great to me
im tired of waiting for my destiny
i don't want to die cant you see
but its time to say goodbye today
iv made made my bed made mind
every has to be justified
so goodbye as i lay down and die
