Two Poems from our Dark Poems, Depressing Poems, Death Poetry Collection

 
 
NO BETTER THAN I
   
Author: Timelia Tison
   
Poem:
NO BETTER THAN I
   
  …Because I’m not responsive
Or hateful, despiteful —
Full of it.
Been dead for awhile, but I know I didn’t quit.
You’ve been going down
While I’m heading up.
When the crowd’s around; they don’t make a sound.
Now I know how it feels to bleed.
You’re no better than me.
I’ve felt the pain; cried the shame at full speed.
We’re both the same.
Took the blames.
Are you happy?
You’re just like me
Not behind me, but equally.
And every time we break up we make up
Too choked up and then I wake up
Finding myself alone — drying to the bone.
You’re no better than me.
I had enough — took it rough
All the suffering nearly killed me
And I plead softly as I hit the floor;
Can’t take anymore.
You’re too weak.
Do you see yourself when you see me?
I know that it eats you alive
Makes you want to cry
Fall on both knees and grieve
Next to you; that’s we’re I’ll be.
Cry out load knowing I would
Be on my own where I could breath
Finally free from the people who
Don’t bring hope, but tragedy.

THE CRY
   
Author: Paulette Stewart
   
Poem: THE CRY
   

I hear the CRY of a human heart,
Ravenous,
Words expressed in feelings,
groanings,
deep inside.

I hear the CRY of a human heart,
Silence.....

Deafening,
Silence of feelings unheard,
Manipulative.

Faces with stories written on them,
Grasping.

I hear the CRY of a human heart,
Worried lines etched across their foreheads,
Dark shadows ingrained,
Bags under their eyes,
Nervous tic's.


I hear the CRY of a human heart,
Begging.
Body language acted in different forms,
Some bodies ring out,
Keep you distance,
Other body languages grabbing,
leeching, clinging.

I hear the CRY of a human heart in the dark,
In the dark,
In ... the... dark....
Supress, hide, sufocate, bury,
In the dark....

Panic melts,
fear grips,
IN THE DARK,
Beats up on onseself,
Anger rages.

I hear the CRY of a human heart,
Do you?

DO YOU HEAR?
