Last Edited Sadness Poems (34)

The days are swiftly hastening
The shadows softly fall
I seem to hear the shepherd calling
From way beyond the wall
He has come to fetch the ill ewe
That lies so forlorn
To unite her with her lamb
She lost,a decade or so ago,
She has been pining for her,
Life for her has never been the same,
The ewe has now to bid goodbye
To all she knew, when on earthly meadows
She did graze,
The shepherd will pick her up
tenderly in His arms
And carry her safely o'er
And lay her gently beside her lamb
She had longed so dearly for;
Now Forever to abide;
No more heartache or pain,
No more tears will be shed,
For the place where He will lay her down
There will be peace and eternal rest,
Beside her precious lamb.

Hush little baby don't you cry.....my mom used to sing and I always wondered why shouldn't I cry when I feel I need to? Kids cry when they fall and need mommy to kiss it better....youngsters cry over heartaches or losing a dear friend....Grown-ups cry when they are happy/sad/frustrated.....I tend to cry alone where nobody can see my tears....I miss having a shoulder to lean on....and I really miss your handkerchief you dried my tears with....it always was "there" with you holding on to me promised that all will be well! You were and always will be the "one true love" of my life.....I miss you-until we meet again!

What do you see
Evil monster staring at me
Feels like I’m being washed out to sea

Laura Laura
Why so sad?
I gave to you my heart
Now it’s nowhere
Never to be found.

Laura Laura
How could this be
You tricked me
I gave to you my soul
With a smile you stole

Laura Laura
Why do you cry
You filled me with nothing but lies
Left me dying inside

Laura Laura
What do you need
Someone to feed my soul
It’s now so cold
Nothing you would want to hold.

Numb, that’s how I feel
Some say what’s the big deal
I can’t feel
I can’t smile
I can’t laugh

Numb thats
how I feel
Pleasure no longer
loving feelings lost
It hurts to talk
It hurts to walk

Numb thats how I feel
My eyes are open
Nothing to be seen
I can’t see the sky
It’s to hard to even try

Numb that’s how I feel
Phone rings
Knocks at the door
To much effort
I just lay on the floor

Numb that’s how I feel.

Sudden pain ripped across
My waxen skin as brambled limbs
Tore open wounds the beast left

I stood in suspended animation
Watching the blood ooze down
Seeping slowly onto the ground

As the sky turned a bleak color grey
There was no emotion in the fray
Only an anguished still quiet
 
No air to breathe
No light to discern
Silently encompassing like a vacuum

Leaving open throbbing wounds
Tormented and deep
Amongst a swollen secret hush

I fell down praying for a healing
From all the scars that penetrate
Our minds, hearts and souls

People, what is happening to us?
Conscience under anesthesia,
And the souls have gone blind
Every day there is less and less
Honor,
Less and less light

We're going with the flow
And our hope fades
We're burning down
Filling our emptiness
With fragments of faith.

I'm standing on the edge of the abyss
And my scream breaks
The vanity of existence
Turning melancholy into words.

Twenty two years ago on September 11th
3,000 shining new stars dotted the Heavens
Did these 3,000 souls die in vain
Did their families hopelessly suffer the pain

To see our Nation now so divided
Why couldn’t we have stayed solidly United
We should take pause and remember everyday
The great sacrifice those who served have paid

So that we can continue to live our lives freely
From past, present and future oppression and tyranny
I was so proud of my Country that day
I wish we could be united the same way today

We are all Americans who united as one
Are invincible and indivisible with the help of God and His Son
We need to turn to Him and ask for His grace
To truly make us the United States!

We should remember our great loss 22 years ago today
And let us always continue to pray
That our great Nation will be united together
And God to Bless our Country’s future forever!

I had a dream, a beautiful melody
But now it's gone, just a distant memory
It filled my soul, gave me wings to fly
But now the silence, just echoes in my mind

The music's gone, lost without a sound
The rhythm's stopped, it's buried underground
The notes have vanished, into thin air
But the melody's still there, it's everywhere

I close my eyes, try to picture the scene
I see the stage, I feel the madolin in between
My fingers move, I feel the music flow
I hear the crowd, as the rhythm starts to grow

The music's gone, lost without a sound
The rhythm's stopped, it's buried underground
The notes have vanished, into thin air
But the melody's still there, it's everywhere

Oh, why did it have to end this way?
Why did the music have to fade away?
I'll keep dreaming, and someday I will Find
The melody will return, The music in my mind

The music's gone, lost without a sound
The rhythm's stopped, it's buried underground
The notes have vanished, into thin air
But the melody's still there, it's everywhere

I'll keep searching, for that lost tune
I won't give up, I'll count every moon
I'll find the rhythm, and let it flow
The music will return, and my soul will know.

When fed up you just wanna throw up your hands
question how much longer you can face life's demands
When so distraught it's arduous getting out of bed
even when wide awake you still feel dead

When anxiety is so overwhelming you wanna scream
your nightmarish life isn't simply some bad dream
When feeling so insignificant you wouldn't be missed
past sick of being screwed before getting kissed

When demons persist you ponder if it's time to quit
desire in every capacity has vanished bit by bit
When suicide infiltrates your thoughts keep them at bay
after reaching your last thread of hope 'Don't Give Way'!

Can you not walk?
Can you not talk?

Why did this happen to you?
So, so very sad - but true.

Can you not eat?
Can you not stand on your feet?

No. You cannot. I'm sorry to say ...
Horrible things turn out this way.
