Random Sadness Poems (1,688)

brushing away the light of distortion
total blackness
well...total blackness for all but one as I
for I am without sight
enabling me to see far past the veneer
well enough to 'try men's souls', if you would
all the layers are peeled back
all is exposed
as that, which they are
as thee, whom they are
that's why you don't see a lot of pretty paintings
...from blind artists
reality is none too pretty
and trust me...I've got a good eye

I cannot
Fall asleep,
Who can teach me
To stop time?
Please give me
A sign
The minutes are ticking
So quickly
But I still cannot
Fall asleep,

I cannot sail away
On a frigate of my fantasies,
I cannot stay
By the shores of my illusions,
I can not extinguish
Lanterns
My thoughts are like
Pedestrians
Walking in darkness
Without rules

Can you help me?
My solo friend
Will you sing me?
A song
To attract
Morpheus ?
Do not be afraid,
Be an angel to me
I will not dare
To offend you,
I'm quiet when
I cannot fall asleep

Exactly at midnight
a drummer begins
Wound up.
He jumps
Down and up
Hitting my sleepless brain

I cannot fall asleep.
Here you are my sweet Ankou
In white clothes
I’ve stolen
Your years
And
Left you only my tears
And youth

I still cannot fall asleep...

I tell myself that everything’s going to be OK,
That there is no reason for all of this pain,
The time it took to change, the time it took to
See all those mistakes,
The life I had, I can’t have back,
The choices I made affected me in all those ways.

The mistakes I made have not been forgotten.
The tears I shed, the sounds I made, the feelings
that left me feeling in a different way.
Yet I can't see why these tears feel so unreal.
I'm not the same, my words are unsaid.
What I hide, is buried deep inside.

To know, to love, to breathe
It hurts to know that I'll never be the
girl I used to be. The one that would always laugh,
the one that you knew would always be strong.
The feeling is real, the truth is sealed.
I cry in the dark, because I know the pain cut too deep.

The blood is like the rain,
in every way it drifts away.
The scars are real, but the wounds in the heart
are another mark.
If you only knew what I've been through,
or maybe you could take a walk in my shoes.

I'm not fake, I'm not a doll,
I just don't think I'm the same in any way.
So where did my soul go?
Why did I ever let it run away?
What happened to that girl?

The one that could make you laugh,
the one that would always take you out?
What happened to that girl,
because I'm lost without her?
I'm no longer me, the mistakes changed me,
but did they change her?
If only I would know.

why do other's frown on the homeless for we are human too as yet the ones that drink's and do drug's they hurt the other homeless that care about life the police even have no care for the homeless that care if you don't have a home your'e considered scum for some it wasn't our choice to be homeless we get in a bind try to get help then get declined the good homeless shouldn't have to hurt for as the ones who drink's and do drug's don't care about life that's why others treat them so badly why do this to your self as it hurts others that want help in life change your life around make thing's better keep having courage and the will to be free alot will become better for you and me this i pray you'll see if you really believe

I can't believe what I am seeing
Ego burned into my eyes
You say that love is in the making
All I hear is a bevy of lies
A twist of shadows hidden in truth
A host of apathy as your proof
Bring me to the slaughter house
I've begged you so many times
Taste the bitterness inside me
Still you continue to commit the crime

Can you ever forgive me
For the things you've done
A fistful of anger
To block out the sun
Blind my eyes so I can't see
Make me deaf and set me free

"It'll kill the core" I know you've said
"If one leaves the rest are dead"
Now all I hear are fake transmissions
And all I see are new acquisitions
Falling in place like a pawn on a board
Picking up parts that were already scored

Can you ever forgive me
For the things you've done
A fistful of anger
To block out the sun
Blind my eyes so I can't see
Make me deaf and set me free

How much longer
do i stand
at the crossroads
of future plans
within the shadow
of this skeletal tree
waiting
for someone

like me

drifting through my hollow heart sifting through my hated soul looking through my saddest eyes for nothing for pain is my lonely mind dying deep inside pointless world saddest heart

Silence is not the answer, Silence is a thing in the dark, An unquestionable thing, A dark and mysterious thing, Your life should not go in silence, It should be witnessed because i shall witness it. You life should be answered not questioned, It your life your living and breathing, Dont be in silence be witnessed, Dont go unknown be answered, Silence is not the answer.

You said "i love you" as you walked away
when that night you should have stayed,
you walked out and got on your bike,
and told me you'd be back by nine,

the next morning i woke to a knock at the door,
they told me you'd been killed in an accident, as my tears hit the floor,
you had been drinking the night before,
and ran into a fence and you were gone.

at your funeral, all i did was cry,
As people kissed you and said goodbye,
i was frozen to my seat in the funeral home that day,
"A life taken to soon" was all i could say.

we all miss you and love you, and wish you were here,
and every now and then we all shed a tear,
for your birthday this year we all went on a ride,
and i finally was strong enough to say my goodbyes.

rest in peace michael, i love you my friend,
and i'll see you there, when my time comes to an end
