Perplexed Poems - Poems about Perplexed

Perplexed
A weird feeling is crawling up and down in my chest and it leaves me grasping for breath, it crawls like a man walking along a corridor in heavy boots and sacks mounted on his shoulders. The birds are gathering around holding mass in the town and the road on my chest that leads...

Premium Member Perplexed
How do you seek what you cannot see? How do you walk down paths you have never trod before? How do you embrace truths foreign to your culture? How do you show compassion when you feel the need of it yourself? How do you sing when you hear the echoes of others’ judgments? How do you fully forgive those who...

Leftover Tomorrows
Leftover Tomorrows Not just the yin and yang of life Not just the perplexed and entangled Not even the esoterically amplified deviations Just the oxymoron nature of the beast It’s the fashion of ascending and escaping Of falling into the voids of the heart When love transcends into emptiness Our minds form designs to abstract To gain wisdom teased from agony From wakeful weaving...

Funeral
Walking past the dreadful land, I realized it was someone’s last few breaths. The sorrow in their eyes, The misery that just landed in their life, With the heavy blue right above their head tight. Is going to pass just like a season, right? With a touch of grief, He left the world with...

Blind Folds On a Glistening Light
Ain't a illusion but reality, Your stardom, your limelight, Your rich folks and my shame dress, My heart begging tears to shed. Ain't a Jack in box I promise But a fairy light lost in spotlight, All you were a short lived fantasy While December joyed and February weeped. Ain't a Silhouette but a soulful dream Of my life's road driven...

Prayer
Prayers Lost and found in the battle of survival Observing the darkness that surrounded the arrival Of the lights Denying the truth or not being perplexed by the presence Being plagued by liars and slayers If to live is up to oneself Killing the other one, what is this profess? Defending the mind from the thought of evil Prayers, Meditation, and trying to prevail...

Premium Member Autumn 'Leaves' Me Perplexed
I love autumn - 'tis my most favorite of the seasons. The harvest moon and colorful leaves are some of many reasons. Trees that during summer provided shade and leaves of jade, Now wear robes of red and gold so brilliantly displayed! I'm awed as the rising sun casts its beams on neighboring trees, Further exposing exquisite leaves dancing...

Perplexed To the Max
Perplexed to the max Perplexed to the max Perplexed and — Angry because I gave in to temptation Crying because I can’t stand my frustration Happy because I shattered the habit of shame Unhappy because I’m still the one to blame Tattered and torn by you while my fretful flame Remains untame, so don’t play me like a game I’m dealing with horrid...

Which Came First
The Anunnaki scientists stood above the blue gel incubator , One of them extended her massive clawed hand into the gel and slowly and ever so gently pulled out the tiny egg “this is a culmination of our home seeds and my own spin on things also” she hissed . “Then I hope this turns out...

Premium Member Confounded Confused and Perplexed
I am confounded, confused, truly perplexed By people who are selfish and mean. Were they abandoned in bathroom stalls? Did they have to survive on a cold tile floor? Was their world so cruel that they think only of themselves? I am confounded, confused, truly perplexed By people who are bossy and belligerent. Do they think this is the way to influence...

Premium Member Fearful and Perplexed
Fading sun elaborates Tuscan yellow tinges As vibrancy floats Lavender on periwinkle Embossing clouds In shades of amethyst Granting scenic vision Atop the red bridge Suspended in perpetuity From vermilion towers In resplendent posture Sounding final appeal From the complacent sea Echoed by morbid hills Seducing her fragility Prompting her to leap Gasping last breath Fearful and perplexed If there's solace in death July 5, 2018 Placed 1st in standard contest #100 by Brian...

Perplexed
For yeeeeeeeears I thought someone was gold More gold plated as I advanced down road Then it faded... The gold plated just became a plate painted gold Things break and have been broken Most times glue super or not cannot make it brand new There are moments that I had to realize What once seemed superhuman was just reality...
