Grief

Grief
Tears
Heartache

The hopelessness 
The yearning

Why 
Another candle’s
Burning...

A beam of hope toppings
With the crust of hopelessness cut off
Sprinkled with resilience

Follow me into the abyss
Lower me into the well
Drink of my hopelessness 
Swim into my faultiness 

Swallow your pride 
Take another stride

You’ll never make it out alive...

Woes knock on my door
in the middle of my sleep.
How gentle is good night?
I mourn in the deep. 
Grey is the color of my life 
Hopelessness - I see!
It slowly conquers my soul
I am willing to set it free....

MUCH PREFERABLE


Much 
Preferable for me
Would be,
In the whirlpool of your
Hopelessness to
Vanish 
Than
Solace to seek 
Into another woman’s  
Embrace!

M-ake your presence felt, 
A-iming for huge success; 
N-ever clip your wings
I-n the nook of hopelessness.
L-et the wings spread and fly, 
Y-earning to soar above the cloud; 
N-ew tomorrow is waiting to make the whole world proud....

With the greyness of the sky above
The sky is crying
Resembling the soul of someone in pain
Hopelessness falling from the sky 
Like tears from the eyes
As it beats the ground
The pain of loss is tattooed on the soul 
For a lifetime...

Justice is fist raised
Justice is a statue
Justice is a hollow cry
Justice is a noose
While the poor die and forgotten
The rich are celebrated and remembered
The society claims it has overcome racism
Inside my head,just mumble
Hopelessness...

Sometimes I'm full of hope and optimism.
Other times I feel hopelessness and pessimism.
It can drive one crazy having such feelings conflicting.
If true balance can be attained, I pray for its fruition
without the use of pharmaceutical medication....

Loss, 
the sudden removal of a cherished thing
leaving only hopelessness
and hollowness of heart that beats 
colder from decreased excitement
with a body slowly turning
toward the wall of wailing
to wait for the warmth of tomorrow.

Gone past, are those of
best of days in vain;
The thought does surge,
me through the total pain;
Of once we're covered lands,
now stand Blood Rain;
Earth cries, in hopelessness,
as beauty slain;
To me you tell this,
waged War great, what gain?...

A mind clouded in darkness
A mind full of hopelessness

A mind full of despair
A mind that is beyond repair

A mind full of negative thinking
Is like a ship that is sinking

Positive thoughts are what I seek
For an outlook that seems so bleak...

Once more I pace this jail house floor
it's so frightening to be here.
It is filled with many memories
of hopelessness and fear.

My heart aches for my one true love
but she is far away.
I yearn to hold her close once more
and by her side to stay....

There is a love in me that’s unknown,
like a seed
I’ve never sown

A life with miseries alone,
for a pain
I’d never groan(ed)

A heart that needs to atone,
for things
I’ve never known

A feeling of hopelessness,	
for a life
I’d never own(ed)...
