#exist poems on Hello Poetry

Kelly Hogan Dec 2019

Why are we told
Our whole lives
To chase our dreams
When dreams don't exist
And if they do
They just die.

How unfair.

My biggest fear is that I'm afraid of dying,
If i told you i wasn't then i would be lying.
What happens after we close our tired eyes?
Is it just eternally dark in the cold, hard earth in which we lie?
What happens after we die?
Do we just cease to exist and aren't able to say goodbye?

Existence

I’ve always had some days
that I dont exist.

Some days,
I just can’t try anymore.
I can’t be anymore; life's heavy.

When will I go a day and be
able to breathe through;

I’m still waiting.

I’m so happy,
But ******* sad.
It’s never gone away.

I just keep reaching and reaching.
Falling harder and harder every time. Drowning into myself and my suffocation.

It all feels so ******* unobtainable.

Someone made a world for
everyone. Except me.

mirrors

it's quite a challenge for me
to look in the mirror and not point out
all the things about my body
I wish to change.

the first thing I see are my imperfections
and I wonder what kind of peace
what kind of universe
could exist where I don't feel this way.

Probably one
with no mirrors.

Hell?

In Death
there are only
Machines.

Machines
made to guide the man
to a heaven
that never existed.

i woke up in between naps to write this im going to sleep again

to exist

how unlucky
Some people's cells are made of life
but they're not blessed to live
And some of us,
are forced to talk and smile
and shine and walk
and appear
-I want to disappear-
and dance and pretend
and again
and again
and-

All we want to do is fly
or die
It's pretty much the same thing
How unfair

existing is tiring

weights

a rise
Irondale as
home fries
are those
building law
in let
your love
of leaping
volt that
inquiry is
now our
world with
substance the
insistence only
flat with
an arc
of love
