Best Sadden Poems

Were I, Born To Tread Upon A Cold, Sadden Earth

Were I, born to tread upon a cold, sadden earth
Walk naked upon barren and dark dusty plains
Strive only for wealth-never for my true self worth
Would I ever have anything but futile gains?
Were I, to yield to...

SADDEN HEART Sultry Serenade-
Dedicated verse for Shasta Simms-



Verse 1:
Sadden heart, filled with blues
Lost in the darkness, can't find no shoes
Tears falling like rain from the sky
Lonely nights, don't know why


Chorus:
Sadden heart sultry serenade, whispering in the night
Trying to ease your pain, make everything right
Let the...

Whether you speak it
 IF you don't feel it 
Some days are responsive 
Sometimes starting out 
It's not positive 
But for you this NEW DAY DAWN 
You Dear One 
If and when you're feeling down 
When this happens plead the blood 
Just smile in Jesus...

My truest intent yet blossoming 
Who am I to stop acknowledging
 I'm not ashamed of loving you 
For God truly knows my prayers for you 
Tears I've cried, I said and tried to stop 
Eyes and face still stained, I catch my breath 
And the...

She walked from me alone;
Left me at my home, broken;
And yes I have a swollen heart;

In time and in due part;
I searched my abandon, thoughts;
She had messaged my swollen heart;

Cold and callous, heartbroken;
Misguided words screamed yells misspoken;
Whom am I, who are you to deny;
My purple...

It’s a summer’s starry night,
Sitting by the dog, barking in the street.

It’s a summer’s fair mid day,
Sitting by the goats’ flock
Grazing along the slanting mead.

It’s a spring’s fore noon,
Seeing sadly of the stony shore
The sprinting of the snowy stream.

It’s an autumn’s afternoon,
Lost in the harvested...

Some Sadden and Madden While Others Gladden

What happens is some people will sadden,
While others bother you and then madden;
As of late,
May irritate;
God likes priests best who always gladden.

Who we will be receiving soon at St. James.
Father Frank never learned how to say
Aman at end of...

She held her breath;
As there was nothing left;
Her hands were tied by her shame;
As her ears listened to the voice of truth,
 reciting her Christian name;
Here her Father held her broken body upon His Holy chest;

He was just so sad frightening 
He would never forget his dread fear
Mourning satin shot by his tears 
He found himself feeling sadly,  beaming 

Couldn't stop singing the blues 
Later he was spooked by a ruse 
He tried to focus on happy trues 
But...

Sadden to say-

For I may never understand, yet still I pray;
Forever in your breath, the jest of one last kiss;
If I may;

Sadden to say;
For the sadness eats us away;
As I clasp your hands and pray;
I am not who you thought, Sadden to say;
My sin has...

I she a tear;
But it didn't matter;
No one love me makes me sadder;
To think that I'm alone but yet not alone;
I'm spoken for;
Is there anybody out there in the world;
That will love me to my soul;
Just to let you know;
Sadden lonely one;

Clouded skies
Raining now
Pictures well 
Sometimes you cry
Often wondering offering Why?
Canvas token
Being made open
Pictures well for the view
Vivid array
Some would say
Landscapes parley
Laughing host voice
Pictures now sighing
No longer crying
Smile landscapes new choice

So sad am I
I fall  despite the call
 I retrieve the fall
 I crawl 
I rise 
I get up
 I stand 
I walk above it
Sad no longer glad now I am

Life is a pinnacle of love
Love is a beautiful flower
That grows in the valley of sacrifice
When love is snatched away from you
You are left with shreds of memories which sadden you
Day by day you learn to survive!...
