Short Sad Thoughts Poems

wiping the slate clean
is it better to forget
escaping sad thoughts...

whispers of years past
long gone opportunities
loves that never were...

tinkling windchimes

ruffled by the summer breeze

like angels laughter

their melody floats on air

as all sad thoughts float away...

sad thoughts began to calm down
divorce had seemed like the end of her world
but there is something vastly calming about the sea
Myrtle Beach was healing her gladly...

He said some things.

Driving, going nowhere,
a sky crying
over a shrugging windshield.

If he had a penny for all her sad thoughts
he'd give a million dollars
not to hear them....

cry
in the 
privacy
of your sad thoughts
behind louvered blinds
till pain wanes…then
wipe away
your tears:
smile

JOURNEY MIND MAP (22/25) — DISCERN


Bear bleak boast
Taste taut toast

Sad thoughts make
A fond take

Spear good cheer
Purge odd fear

In a while
Spice new pile

Morose feelings do sashay
  Take with you those clouds away

Beckon sunshine through the day
  No sad thoughts allowed today

All fun tidings do convey
  Naught but belly laughs all day

Slams Destroyed Her Head

She was slammed by slam poetry, boo hoo!
Some folks wondered about the hullabaloo.
When bombarded with dread,
Sad thoughts destroyed her head.
Now, she thinks she’s a blithering cuckoo!

even though it's been three months
since your voice has echoed through my bones
the alcohol running through my veins 
makes it easy to remember
your sad thoughts
and twisted ways
and that somehow you made silence 
louder than my heartbeat
844 miles away...

Without him I'm nothing,
Only sad thoughts are left,
Really needing and wanting his love,
Tired of being apart when we are meant to be,
Heartbroken by Daniel,
Left so hurt,
Empty is the only feeling I have,
Soulmates now apart,
Something so amazing has ended..
Temporarily....

Sad pique here
Bleeds out cheer


Face looks sad
Purge thoughts glad


Mad mind mulls
Sad thoughts dull


Wait on grace
To light face


Mood swings bad
Odd scent mad


Sad and mad
This bad fad


Blues on tap
Fills this gap

If I died, would you still love me?
If I died, would you be sad or happy?
If I died, would I let you down or make you proud?
If I died, would I be a burden or a blessing to you?
If I died, would you go to my funeral?
If died, would you think happy or anger, also sad thoughts? 
If I died, would you be happy or sad I was gone?...

Words in crisp swirl
Etch a brave world


Writes in brisk strokes
Moves joy to poke


Works in warm fest
Now moves clear zest


Wake to the dawn
In this bright morn


While sad thoughts sleep
Heed echoes deep


Watch what you say
To make words pay


Wise is the touch
That says so much

Feel how you feel when sad thoughts ground,
Charm seeks scarce thrill in joy yet found.


Watch poise reveal a cause for blame,
Touch knows a will as silence frames.


Wit seems too slow to anchor gain,
Noise hampers know as echoes stain.


Live in the light of certain flair,
Joy brings new sight in simple airs.

Sad eyes look at me:
A wordless story.


Sad looks follow me:
What else can now be?


Sad feel shadows me:
Deep melancholy.


Sad sparks puzzle me:
Feel sadness set free.


Sad eyes now frame me:
Fling curious fancy.


Sad upon sad see:
Pain strokes mockery.


Sad thoughts greet sad feel:
When will sadness heal?

Isn’t it amazing all the snow winter can bring?
Just when it is time for the arrival of spring?
Cold air, bitter wind, and sad thoughts sting.
As white once again, covers everything.

Longing increases for the birds to sing.
Chirping melodies, as they flap their wings.
Into the skies, with new flights in upswing.
We stand with patience, as winter clings.

good days
bad days
are the history of our times
to ride over surge of tides
stay calm
play smart
keep heart!
sad thoughts
happy moments
they will surely take their turns
keep your head whatever fate churns
trust god
work hard
get ahead!
share love
show respect
they do not cost a penny
but they bring you in return
happy smiles
lasting miles
victory parade!

Butterfly wings

you sit and wait for the sunrise
painting pictures on the walls of your wounded heart
sitting by the window writing words on the frosted pane
hoping that they'd come to life and wash your failures away

you sit and wait for the firelight
sad thoughts dancing like the shadows of a flame
sitting by the bedside knees to the ground
throwing prays down your wishing well

you fly on butterfly wings
looking over mountain tops
for that everlasting love...

Dazzling autumn

In November, in my window

Does she smile? 

Does she laugh?

Or it is only my dream?

The specks of dust turn along a room

and they have fun in the breeze 

at an open window.

Are they the smallest parts of my sad thoughts and troubles?

It is necessary to dust and wipe them off my life.

If even the sun is shining in November in my window,

the summer joy has faded, has been lost and blazed

together with leaves only on fires of my memories....
