#stop poems on Hello Poetry

Anthony Mayfield Feb 2019

Stay where you are.
Locked in arrogant infancy,
You try to scream, but you stop.
You try to cry but drop
To your knees,
Begging to the unseen.
No more.

Hail the King of Fools.
The devils laugh and scorn.
Through chains, more fears are born.
You try to scream, but you stop.
You can't breathe.
Fighting the unseen.
No more.

Enslaved by your fears,
You try to scream, but you stop.
You cry.
You beg.
You breathe.
You squeal.
No more.

How it feels when depression wins.

This is what we do now?

2019 and Its okay to **** women and children
We don't stand a chance because this a Man's world right?
This wouldn't be there if we didn't discard these peoples voices
If we listen to every pained voice,
every voice that cracks into tears
an every little child asking is this okay? Are we gonna lets this be a
everyday thing? We are not animals , We are people
When people say No they mean NO,
And when some guy messes with the wrong Girl an he gets killed
She shouldn't be blamed, No matter what

Stop I

I wish you would have
stopped me from leaving.
I wish you said “I love you”
Sooner than you did.
I wish you would have shown
That you cared for me someway.
But, when I said goodbye,
You just said “bye.”

take a stand

if they throw rocks at you,
it's time,
you pick those rocks up,
and make walls out of those rocks,
to keep such people out.......

I not We

We were
leaning on each others shoulder

We were
holding hands

We were
hugging tightly

If only I was included in the we....

My heart is aching from seeing both of them
I keep trying to injure myself to stop this pain......

Give Take

You give and give.
But you can only give so much.
Because eventually you run out of pieces of yourself.

And after you stop giving.
They start to take.
They take and take.
Until they have you ,
And you are no longer complete.

Give but only to people who deserve you.

How to Stop Time

Ticking clocks, ticking clocks.
Why won't you stop?
I've pulled the numbers right off
yet you tick and you tock.
Like a key turned in a lock
to lock and then unlock
over and over again.

Ticking clocks, ticking clocks.
Why won't you stop?
I've ripped your hands off,
yet you tick and you tock.
I tore your heart out
and yet it still beats
over and over again.

Ticking clocks, ticking clocks.
Why won't you stop?
I put a knife through my chest
yet you tick and still tock.
Like time does not stop
even when my heart is wrought
with pain,
with pain,
with pain.

Inspired by a song I wrote awhile ago where the words were "I take time away from the clock, pulling the numbers right off. Thinking that will make it stop. Make it stop"
