Poems About Confusion Seeking Honest Critique

after all this time
after all this time
belongs my heart to you, it’s not mine
anymore, it’s all yours
it always has been
the love omnipresent
like the fear i feel
can’t handle feeling safe
my heart sending an appeal
but the way to my brain’s been blocked
highway congestion, veins clogged
“i’m only seventeen,
i don’t know anything
but i know i miss you“
don’t want to hurt your feelings
wanna find out first what i want -
or can handle -
but it feels impossible
without your warm hugs
and tender...

And Again.
Hallucination.
Illusion.
Again and again, same delusion.
Holding my own,
Now a threat.
Emotions I don't own,
Gun roulette.
Sphere in the chamber,
Pop!
Ponder in the mirror, a stranger.
Pulsating in my chest, nonstop.
Eyes stutter open,
Hitched respiration.
Again, I'm broken.
Immense desperation.
Sentiments to condemn,
Globes ready to close.
Haunting continues, again and again.
Illusion.

Eyes stutter open,
Hitched respiration.
Again, I'm broken.
Immense desperation.
Sentiments to condemn,
Globes ready to close.
Haunting continues, again and again.

One with Humanity
Haven't you noticed the ocean's wailing waves, a desperate cry to someone but always misunderstood as a "calming lullaby"?
Each crash upon the open shore to the hidden clams leave a vast variety of shells on the course ground. It exposed every hook and cranny life would be able to survive against predators by hiding and distancing themselves. So, the ocean may not be weeping, but the stunted snapper beached on the coast frantically flailing in an attempt to meet up with the ocean is. The unveiled clams swiftly diffing as their life depends on it, as it does. Even the land...

Returning Home
Feel like a stranger
So many years have gone by
Where does this leave me?

Delirious and deluding
Confused and confusing
Bewildering and bemusing
My constant conscious state
Before entering any building!
Amused and amusing
Astounding and awe inducing
My awesome ample state
Before committing to seducing!
Enthused and enthusing
Explicit and oh so oozing
My eager earnest state
Before exiting at my choosing!

Dark Eyes
Effortless words and actions
Never cease to provoke a reaction
Both physically and emotionally
It’s brought to the brink my fragile sanity.
Yet here I am the same masochist
Giving into the same temptation rather than resist
The urge to continue this doomed chase
Will I ever fall back into grace?
I’m addicted to you like a drug
I can’t ever seem to have enough
I’ve been taken by those dark eyes
That pierce into my soul and consume my light.

Just a Thought
I thought that love was like moon, it watches us throughout the night,
Even when it has to face the clouds we still see it’s light,
and when we decide to close our eyes
For a sleep it never gets tired of coming back.,
I thought that love was like a rainfall, it washes all the dirtiness,
It leaves us with a bright atmosphere,
and whenever we cry it showers us with more drops to cover our tears.,
I thought that love was like flowers and trees,
the more you water them the more they bloom,
And even if you cut a tree by time it provides another...

Old Itchy and Scratchy MAGA
needed fifteen minutes of fame
then ten times more for rage and blame
like an Anglo-Saxon saga.
It was fight, fight, fight... fight, fight, fight,
with buckets of blood in the schools,
when those mangy MAGA fools
got another kid in their sight.
I guess it will end when we're dead
since that's what MAGA seems to need
when anger breeds with business greed
in a white supremacist head...
where everything they'll ever know
they mixed with Trump and Old Jim Crow.

The Devil Does Care
if you want to be heard, just talk to the devils
they are very good listeners.
talk to men, deafenitely they won't hear
and they won't even listen, not only, but
they will anticipate your thoughts
The devil can give your his heart
open wide his ears to listen to you;
regardless of his wicked schemes,
it's all about giving a scope to expression,
a room to vomit your acid pains and morbid
recurrent sick doubts and expectations.............

What Have We Come To?
I can't watch the news tonight
Can you?
So much senseless senseless
senseless senseless senseless
gun violence today--
and this had been such a
wonderful day until
I turned on the news
(see former poem)
All these people
going crazy
killing family members
carjackings
robberies
just
senseless senseless senseless
O despicable daughter of Babylon
(aka the NRA First Church of Satan)
who art to be destroyed
happy shall we be...

Now I Know They Mistook Me For Someone Else
Jessica
opened her eyes and saw
that she had somehow been placed inside
a bedroom that belonged to someone else before
the door opened and a woman said
"Good morning, Robin... and
welcome home."
