Most Commented Dark Poetry Poems (2,489)

I was walking home from school on a cold winter day
Took a shortcut through the woods and I lost my way
It was getting late and I was scared and alone
Then a mean old man took my hand and led me home
Mama couldn't see him but he was standing there
I knew in my heart he was answer to my nightmares
Oh I believe there are demons among us
Sent up to us from somewhere down below
They come to you and me to create our darkest hours
To show us how to die
To teach us how to take
To guide us with the darkness of hate
Life had troubled times
Had me down on my knees
There's always been someone to come along and frighten me
A harsh word from a stranger to take my self esteem
A phone call from a collector just to say where is my cash
Ain't it kinda funny at the dark end of the road
Someone blocks the way with just a single word of doubt
Oh I believe there are demons among us
Sent up to us from somewhere down below
They come to you and me
To create our darkest hours
Show us how to die
Teach us how to take
To guide us with the darkness of hate
To guide us with the darkness of hate

Half full glass tumbled, emptied covering all light

Shadows blending into darkness till all gone

Defeats smell, putrid stench covering fight

Bleak is a world that has lost hope

Where good has succombed to evil

Closing eyes and mind to cope

Heart beating retrieval

Hope gasping for breath

Light covers dark

Evils death

Good marks

Life

Today I see
What tomorrow brings
The same as yesterday

If black is white
And wrong is right
The weak inherit nothing

The bear awakens
While the lion sleeps
And pigeons are ripe for plucking

So the dance goes on
And we all play a part
And nothing ever changes

Sitting on the mountain looking down
The world spread out before me
Madly running all around
Like ants here and there they scurry

Do they even know what they do
Or what urges drive them onwards
These acts they do so crazy are
No rhyme or reason binds them

Blood splashes across the moon
And casts a red, deathly shadow
Bodies on top of each other pile up
The stench reaches right up to Heaven

Angels weep and tears they spill
So much that rivers swollen
For every tear a soul’s cut loose
But most not bound for Heaven

Down in Hell the demons party
Their job has never been so easy
Mankind begs to enter Hell
None are denied their entrance

Life goes on day by day
And the gloom and doom darkens
Is this what I sent my son for
To die for your redemption

Here and there a little flicker
A spot of light in this dark world
Just for those it was all worthwhile
And for the rest my heart is breaking

So there he walks amongst the dead
No living soul in sight
With evil intent in heavy heart
He forges ever onwards

Over hill and dale and through forest dark
Towards city lights so bright
There he’ll find the living ones
To feed upon at night

From shadow to shadow no-one will see
Until it’s far too late
By then their soul he’s feasted upon
For a while he’ll live again

My mind is not always riight
My mind can takes me to crry
Think twiice before any act,
dont have to suffer to learn...
My mind is not always riight,
the mind can drives us to lie,
sometimes it turns to daark,
just try to know aboout....
Because mind is so complicate
sometimes,I dont understand
I just know there are alots of words ,
that I have know,to learn and then show....
My mind is not always riight
oh my mind can takes me cryyy....

Such emptiness and loss inside,
These demons screaming my mind,
The ugliness and hurt of mine,
Pain and sorrow multiplied,
My overbearing sense of pride,
I'm scared and there's
nowhere to hide,
Sifting through deceit and lies,
I stare at horrors petrified,
Eyes spark electrified,
Wires burnt and circuits fried,
How did I get so old and tired,
A derelict of my desires,
This quicksand and quagmire,
Like it's out of the frying pan,
Into the fire...

You are with me all the time,
Do you know you're always on my mind?,
Your face is framed inside my brain,
I think about you every day,
Thoughts that never go away,
Some are pleasure,
Others pain,
These feelings I feel have no names,
Trying to decide if I like the rain,
For it's wave after wave of pure emotion,
Like I'm lost in a vast and angry ocean,
Back and forth,
this rocking motion,
Leaves me wheezing,
gasping, choking...

Lilith came to me in a dream
she said Eden was beautiful
we fell through the abyss
the fury of our flight
kindled the air...

It thundered and lightninged
below us the ocean boiled
birds of prey gathered
she said we were to marry
the mark of Cain upon me...

She kissed with venom on her lips
with roses across her chest
I was in love
like an addict
loves his addiction...

"You may do with me as you like," she said
you have been in bed with whores before
you are free to do as you will
since you like doing it
more than you like what you do...

Summon the dark priest drenched in sin
for my harlot shackled in death
whoredom that plays like an orchestra
as she enticed me to shout
the shrill scream of o*gasm...

The lightning and thunder ceased
she disappeared behind dark mountains
between sky and land
the dusk and dawn
wearing her crown of jagged stars...

She slit the throat of the horizon
as I fell back
into my Merlin sleep
I heard a siren's voice say,
"I am Lilith and you are mine-forever!"

i could be the one that makes you feel you're off your feet may just be falling asleep if i only had that feeling every morning an then before i go to sleep. then our lips meet.
sweet dreams see you in the morning!
