Ruefulness Poems | Examples


Her Sadness

Heavy-hearted beneath your bridge with tides drowning
Eccentric beyond repair and never learning your lesson
Relief found comfortable only when you're frowning

Somber ruefulness contingent on your severe depression
Addicted to any mind altering chemicals; lost not found
Dastardly and wicked like a cowardly lion and a thief
Nondescript and lacking the ability to stay earthbound
Embezzlement of your felicity was your only relief
Sedated from tranquilizers and subdued from persuasion
Suicide found alleviation and refrained from confrontation

Forceful Rebuttal

Believing prevarications, from you, confined,
  taking the route to the open lands, so blind,
    unsighted within alternative techniques,
     you and me in contact, two afflicted, combined,
      they always expressed the truth, we were unique.

         Uncanny combination, circumstance affairs,
           me acting out of regret, you acting debonair,
             answers left more questions, interrogation,
               believing actions set in motion, not repaired,
                 I'm caught between two worlds, interpolation.

                   Made your bed, now I sleep in deep ruefulness,
                     no more direction, our existence unfruitfulness,
                      characteristics, weak, broken mirrors bring trouble,
                        I wake up in morbid decay full of dreadfulness,
                         your excuses full of lunacy and forceful rebuttal.

Sadness Lingers

As much as I wish this frigid season
Would change into warmer days of springtime.
I can’t help feeling sad for some reason:
Ruefulness within my subconscious mind.
It might be the ending of snowball fights
Where I was the children's adversary;
Or perhaps it was those cold winter nights
When we all sang carols and was merry.
Whatever might be the reason for it
I guess I will never really know why.
Therefore it shall remain indefinite
In the recesses of my mind. Time flies
By so fleetingly season to season
A little sadness lingers from each one.

Ruefulness

What the hell has become of this?
Everyone and all smells like piss
Just don’t care what it is that I miss
Want any and all to end regardless
Paws burn uncontrollably from likeness
Crimes and endeavors gone on relentless
Eyes full of dementia and psychosis
Fur shines of moon’s luster through darkness
Wind surrounds essence in all fullness
Senses unperturbed through trailing quietness
Claws curve concealing their sharpness
Mind flows schismatic in unrivaled insaneness 
Rhapsody of sweet sound rolls in eternalness
Howls bellowed deep within build explosiveness
Night’s form covers all in its vastness
Stars fly through dark sky thoughtless
Tail sways behind in certain loneliness
Nature dragged deep within carelessness
Soul hurts from regretful sickness
Muzzle sheds a tear drowning emotionless
Form non-energized, and without her, lifeless……..

The Wrath Within

And so the self-pitiful interlude
Exits, so I make way
For myself, so charming and delightfully rude,
Mesmerising you with every word I say.

Although satisfying is the air I breathe,
Yet as if it were a circle so vicious,
That from within the body that of swagger reads,
It reappears, and so the hiatus.

Only this time it really burns
And ruefulness turns into angst
Louder the curses become and quicker it runs
I take off. For now starts my quest.

And so in pursuit of reasons, I cast
My probing eyes on every soul
And my windows show me that I’m not alone
For all, a rage inside they hold.

And for stars above have brighter shone,
So it burns their soul
Now I know why I’m not alone
For all, a rage inside they hold.

Becoming Undaunted

When life is full of ruefulness
You should turn the other cheek
Let go of whatever has gone wrong
And try not to be weak.

When life is full of tribulations
Please don't give up on hope
Put aside your frustration
And find a way to cope.

When life is full of deterrence
Don't listen to what you are told
Disregard your fear and anxiety
And take a chance at being bold.
