Does seem a hard thing to do.

Yet introspection... before dejection

Brings more peace than you ever knew....

Weep for me

Willow

Beside the stream

Of my tears

Cry your oval leaves

Onto the dewy grass

And carpet my dejection

With your patient boughs....

promises anticipate confident
dejection discord 
fear feeds anxiety

In a mindset 
Hampered by sadness and dejection
I only ask you to carry on
Heave your weighty troubles
Over your fragile shoulders
And I will catch your baggage
If ever you should fall...

From the golden lamp a genie emerged
For a thousand years he had been submerged
  Said, 'I can give you vast wealth
  Or I can give you good health'
But either one by itself is a scourge...

Purely soul to soul,

                            Infatuation for him,

                             Dejection eats up !

Spilling my emotions 
Into that cup
You drank up every word
Listening, absorbing 
The sadness and dejection
Making it your own
To take the burden
Off of my heart
Filtering it through
Your own...

Loneliness, a venom that corrodes
Veins with despair and emptiness
Feeling alone in a crowd
Dejection is the mood
Life seems to forget
Your existence
Dwelling in
Somber
Clouds

Lines composed in dejection
of embarrassing rejection
have a tendency to be
even duller than the seeds
of Stalin’s rise to power,
and more ruthlessly taxing,
and on the psyche vexing,
than the whole of the Holodomor....

Solitude... 
Like an old sad song...
Loneliness....
Just a day prolonged...
Desolation...
Like an empty sky...
Dejection...
Like a bold-faced lie...
Despondency...
All your hopes dashed...
Disillusionment...
Alone...
And unabashed......

Flowers blooming,
people smiling,
everything happening at its best.

The sorrows are gone,
now there's no pawn.
Everything's great and no one's caved.

The brightness is overloaded,
everyone is happy.
Lost the dejection and no one's snappy....

Unsafe but no fear, numb is the lonely heart, 
Grief-stricken, engulfed with dejection, 
Pain merely a slender touch,
But senseless buds and frozen skin, 
And the soul lifeless ‘though breathing, 
Awaiting salvation certainly one day!

Its pours down heavy rain 
people run and take shelter 
they say rain is such a pain 
yet Ive never felt better 

strip of my clothing of 

limitation

fear 

rejection 

and dejection 

until theres naked liberation 

oh such a freeing emancipation!...

His vibrations were so low
She felt herself falling into depth 
of abject darkness

Sequestered now in the
most diabolical feeling of dejection and despair

She loved him 
So she stayed

Until her light was extinguished
While waiting for one sign of
approval

Which she did not receive...

We wish to reach out, to assist 
It’s our reflex instinct
An open heart and unclenched fist
Our soul is by love inked

We do face rejection
But there’s no dejection
Love shifts not direction

Though others may doubt
We wish to reach out

Arrival of dejection may be the acquirement of upcoming selection...
Applauses of today can be the daunts of tomorrow...
Weaknesses and flaws are all a part of perfect perfection...
If love is so selfless, then why required is the harness...
Tear the letters and burn away the petals...
For their selfish wordsmith have only engraved bitter pits ......

Passion _ cold as hell
possessed for the things
you loved so well
even the birds sings

breathing the air _ as fresh
as it is, but more to it
living afar from the flesh
dejection and delirium _ more 
to hit

it’s loving against all odds
and the heart still desire,
watching your skin shrink as we 
grow old
more and more to give and 
aspire....
