Life Sucks Poems | Examples


Why Do Life Sucks

Why do life sucks?
Why is it all about luck?
Why can't a thing go my way?
Why those annoying people have a lot to say?

Why do I have to study without any will?
I'm young, and I want to chill
Why do I have to follow that famous trend?
What's wrong with my messed up friend?

I don't see anything wrong in being rebellious
Not everyone can be religious
To all the adults who expect us to be "perfect"
We are objecting and we'll continue to object
You cannot break our dreams
Just wait N' watch, how we walk through your extremes

Who Knows

Who knows?
Today you are alive , Tomorrow you are no more

who knows?
Today you are laughing.. tomorrow you might be crying alot ..

Who knows?
Today you are in race to earn money for the one..
Tomorrow that person will be no more 

Who knows?
Today you are losing something to get something. Tomorrow the earned also you may lose

Who knows?
Today you are king of your kingdom tomorrow that kingdom itself get burnt

Who knows?
For the tomorrow , you will lose your present
What if the tomorrow never comes

Life Sucks

I'm not suicidal
But sometimes I get
The thoughts,
The feelings,
The urges
The overwhelming
Sadness takes over
And I can't move
Or get away from it
It shuts down my body
And I can't do anything
I get the thoughts
Of ending it all
And it tears me down
But I only entertain
Them to help
Because I know I
Could never go
Through with it
The feelings are
Always so strong,
Leaving me with
Pools of tears
With nothing to
Dry them up
I'm not suicidal
But I do occasionally
Want anything to
Just replace or
Make me ignore
The darkness
I won't go too
Far like bleeding
Or severe damage,
Only enough to
Focus on that
Instead of the pain
I'm not suicidal
But I wonder
How it would feel
To be free of
This continuous pain,
The feelings of being
Stuck in one place
Forever with that
Sadness and pain
It would be nice
To leave them behind,
But I can't, so I'll just
Think about what it
Would be like,
What a better world,
What a better life it
Would be for me
I'm not suicidal
But it all still hurts

This Life Sucks

"This life sucks," myopics say
They can not see the light of day
They can not see beyond their nose
And that's the way their small view goes

How dreary every life would be 
When moon and stars you can not see
Or hear birds chirping in their nest
Nor watch the sun set in the west

So many things to see and do
Myopics choose the narrow view
To live or die is all they see
How wonderful that they're not me!

Life Sucks

Once a year, I shed a tear
For the ones I have lost
You will never understand the cost
I say to myself “why am I so lost?”
For this year I have shed more tears than I ever have, 
My dog has left the earth and passed, 
My life is truly aghast
But enough of the past, 
I’m here for the future, 
My life is trashed
For my time has passed, 
I need to restart, 
So have a heart
And help my heart
I have too much on my heart 
I cannot stand it, please make my life easier
and remove my tears

Life Sucks

Life sucks.
Plucks you from your mother's belly
Weans, silks your skin, 
Fondly toys with you 
and grows you.

Life sucks.
Slyly beguiles you 
To mate, create,
Spit out your genes.
In moments of sin or folly.

Life sucks.
Soon, too soon, it pounces.
And plays a while,
Scratches out your eyes,
Crumples your bones.

Life Sucks.
Finally tiring of you
Life licks out your soul 
With greedy slurps,
Smacks its lips, then burps!

Sometimes Life Sucks

Sometimes life sucks,

and yeah it hurts

but, that will never change.

So, do the tasks of life,

and beat the challenges,

God throws,

and remember,

God never said life would be easy,

he just said it would be worth while.

Life Sucks and So Do You

Life sucks,

And so do you.

Leave me be,

Before you bleed.

Lifeless body,

That could be you, Hottie.

Sorry to be mean,

But, you make me turn green.

I’m being mean I know,

But, life sucks,

And so do you

Life Sucks

Life sucks, you know that?
You can live the best you can and still feel like a rat.
You stay up for someone you care about to call,
And later find out they never cared about you at all.
You sit, waiting on something you expect to be great,
and when it actually happens, it wasn't worth the wait.
You spend your whole life trying to forget
All the things you've done that you truly regret;
However, no matter what you do,
Those things always seem to follow you.
You open up your heart and let someone in
Just so you can be burned once again.
You call in to work sick, just because you're tired;
Next day, you find out you've just been fired.
You're always trying to live for something more,
Only to find it's just another closed door.
You give something you're very best,
And, in the end, are still no better than the rest.
You can feel so happy, you just want to sing,
then something happens and you lose everything.
Despite these you still have to live.
No matter what, your best is what you're called to give.
So the best thing you can do is live life with a smile,
Because, you know, life rocks every once in a while.
