Rejection Poems - Poems about Rejection

I wish you had waited and given me a chance, But instead you text me so excited she gave you a glacne. It was rushed and blurred, Swift by clean, It was the type of attraction, I wish, you had towards me. It was the type of glance that had you circling the fire holding drinks, Pulling close to come...

O’ dear, I learned today you’re spoken for; I asked the question, got the answer: “no”. Ayayaye…but, considering the blow wasn’t so bad, I’m glad I tried to score. Oh dear,—(I must admit)—you know what’s more?, you’ve snatched the beauty right out from this low world; o’ diamond, why must you hoard it so? All other charms have lost their glow, they...

Every rejection, a redirection Don't be ashamed or let it tame you. Don't let them change you, If they won't accept who you are. People don't value What they can't control or own, Just stay in your lane doing it your way. Many only wanna partake In your blessings not lessons I hope you understand this! Just be you as...

"Painful" "Unworthy" You question why you exist Loathing Self-Pity Its lies you cannot untwist Empathy And reason They bid farewell As love And self-esteem Also parallel Negativity fills faster than adipose cells Mademoiselle Are you truly well? No It takes courage to say To seek closure To make way For much needed composure Then realisation sweeps in That our rejection is from deep within If we never love, if we never care We cease to be human We fail...

I offered her my trembling heart, A blossom pale beneath the sky, But she, with cold and careless art, Let it wither and pass by. I sang for her the sweetest song, A melody of stars and sea, But she, unmoved, walked on too long, She did not turn to glance at me. The moon was kind and watched my tears, The night was...

The storm of rejection can be a tumultuous and overwhelming experience, out pour of emotion of a blocked shot, sending the ball of the court, leaving us feeling battered and bruised. It can hit us suddenly, with no warning, or it can slowly build up over time, wearing us down with each passing rejection, But just as...

POEMS ABOUT OPHELIA Ophélie (“Ophelia”) by Arthur Rimbaud translation by Michael R. Burch On pitiless black waves unsinking stars abide while pale Ophelia, a lethargic lily, drifts by. Here, tangled in her veils, she floats on the tide. Far-off, in the woods, we hear the strident bugle’s cry. For a thousand years, or more, sad Ophelia, This albescent phantom, has rocked here, to and...
