Sadly Poems | Examples

Sadly, She Is Still A Psychopath

she still slams doors
like the world owes her rent,

still drinks the bottle
to the bottom,
still laughs at the blood on the floor
like it’s a carnival trick.

I kept thinking—
hell, maybe she’ll soften,
maybe she’ll learn
how to hold a hand
without drawing a knife.

but love doesn’t cure venom,
and I’m no doctor.

I’m just another fool
who tried to tame fire
and ended up burned.

She sadly remembered now

She felt putdown again today
She had forgotten about them
Parents who never liked her
Today she sadly remembered their attitudes well

There He Sadly Grows

From a little sapling to a tree,
He grows, he grows to be,
Stuck to its roots still,
Can’t go anywhere, can’t be free,
Stuck in the soil,
His own not allowing him to go,
He just sits there, where he sadly grows

Sadly Servant

Poets and Singers
Sweet exclusion
Knows bounds
Sadly servant
to the whims
Drinking Mead
to the seasons mirth
Transmute themselves
to the citizens of dawns voice

Acquaintance and Neighbourhood

Sadly , my acquaintance  of IsiZulu and other local  languages was so badly.
hardly to speak to acquaintance neighbors in the erea
 as majority of them were sadly. 

Neighbourhood had an acquaintance woman 
superstar of Hollywood,
African woman who spoke American English 
fluently like an African - Americans. 

Hollywood superstar once carried firewood, 
Woodland is the name of  that Neighbourhood.
Place where you can find beautiful traditional houses
 and an  important old Palace.

traumatized good people always portrayed  Apartheid 
and colony as the causes of trauma. 
Hardly communication between some people
As  they were  wounded by  others hardly. 

Painful life when you are victims of  injustice, Trying to transform some unjust people by  sharing love 
and they continue to ignore your goodness 
and kindness to increase your pain.

Sadly Some Overdue

Not another sun
not another sea
cannot poetry be larger
than its words

not another blossom
not another scent
best when fresh
but the fonder written
beyond time

like aged lovers love
more toward the end
with youth back round
that literary bend

our roses remain red
our violets remain blue
poetry is never old

sadly some overdue

Sadly I Can'T Remember

Sadly, I can't remember
the last words she spoke to me
before passing last December 
in quiet reverie.

We visited with open hearts
as she bore her very soul
yet never pressing from her sweet lips
thoughts better left untold.

And so, she left me stranded here 
with her mother's love unbound 
and memories made of gossamer wings 
ethereal and profound.

Sadly, I can't remember
her last kiss upon my cheek
and I'd give everything I ever owned
If I could only hear her speak.

5 Week's Later Sadly

Like I said right before 
you came
5 week's would come
and go

One day we would be happily patiently 
eagerly awaiting your arrival
And seemingly the very next day 
driving you back and waving you 
a sad farewell and goodbye 

But id rather that as much as it may sting 
Better that than having you never have 
came at all

And at least you have a loving family 
awaiting your arrival on the other side
So thanking you my Sister Joanne from
the piece missing from my heart
For coming in the 1st place as that 
was solely down to you

And as a parting gift please I pray you
 know this if nothing else beside 
You are the middle center ground truly 
blessed to be loved on either side of 
the equator in equal increasing amounts
both true north and due south

And let me finish by saying merely this 
You haven't even barely left no time
has in fact elapsed

But already you are sorely missed

Sadly Truth and Reality Bites

If you or 1 wish to
live based on reality

Live in the real world you
awaken to every single morning

You then also sadly have to accept
these cold hard facts of life as well

As these few simple fundamental rule's
will see you right and do you no harm
in the long run

People ---- Cheat

In matter's of

Love & Sex
Peace & War
Sport & Art
Politics & Debating
Crime & Punishment
Weight & Age
News & Media
Religion & God

Life in general
& 
Lest us not forget
The greatest cheat of all

Money , Money , Money

M-O-N-E-Y

And you can take that to the Bank

It's the cheater's No 1 choice 

Not some of the time

But all of the time

Accepted as currency in every country
in the world

More so even than the almighty Do$$ar

So I suppose in summation maybe
what I am tring to say is this

Ignorance is Bliss

Sadly I Say Goodbye

Sadly I say goodbye

Precious one Take a bow
the anguish tortures that you've endured
I weep for darkness
for the hopelessness eats away I am very low
no longer shall we caress

I am only your love
Sadly I say goodbye

I am only your pictures.
taken and now placed on the living room wall
each passing day afflicts the body leaving you less richer
for the hopelessness eats away all the morrow

but I am still here

in your heart
in your dreams
yet it seems
to be so very real

No long can you touch me
for I am not here
the hard you try
the more you cry
after the hellos
sadly I say goodbye

Sadly Beautiful

The weeping came late
After we lost the pearl of heart
With the cruel twist of fate
Death arrived and made us part.
 
Voices cry when anguish dictates,
The unheard, unanswered repository.
Where the cold wind breathes
A message exhales into the foggy fray.
 
Sadly, beautiful I remember the day,
Freedom is the essence of despair,
We were sad when you went away,
Delirious and unaware.
 
How time releases the brave soul
And gave joy to the eyes of the world

Cinnamon Roll Friend

CINNAMON ROLL FRIEND 


Felica my long ago friend
I am remembering our  short
“Do you remember me?" Conversations-
Or at least I think we had some

My first answer was not entirely true
for which I have since felt blue- I do 
remember you and did that day like a 
 a cinnamon roll

   I did not recognize you at first
   in the bright sunlight but my request
to see you again was sincere- I looked for you
 every time I was in town and then I sadly moved away
 again

 Maybe next time if there ever is one
 our conversation could last longer- perhaps
 you were an illusion and perhaps I was one too
But I really want to be friends again-Where are you
 my cinnamon roll friend?

Sadly Heading Home

On a plane

sadly
heading home

adventure lost
in the tailwinds
only memories remain

Sadly They Weren'T There

The deaf man heard the church bells ring,
The blind man led him there,
The arm-less put their hands together,
The leg-less knelt in prayer,
The mute's song filled the church with such joy,
There was no room for despair
And as for those sat in the empty pews ...
Sadly, they weren't there,
The deaf man heard God's mighty word,
The blind man saw the light,
The leg-less marched along with pride,
The arm-less joined the fight,
The mute sang lustily, joyfully bringing
The words of the Bible alive,
But as for those sat in the empty pews ...
Sadly, they didn't arrive!

Sadly Pangs I Hurt I Pain So--

Sadly Pangs I Hurt I Pain So- 


sadden am I shall I cry pangs in pain am I hurt sadden
