Misery: 

Saddens souls.
Shocks sorrow. 
Stings stained hearts.

It saddens me so,
when you don't answer the phone.
It makes me ponder, 
why do I keep setting the tone.
So much has happened,
So little said.
I feel as if I were dead....

Shunned by silence,
no hope at all,
There are no messages--
no texts; no calls.
What saddens most,
in this quiet end,
is I only really ever
wanted to call him Friend....

She has a heart of gold
Quick to comfort others
Her hand quick to extend

But it saddens her
That her heart has been broken so many times
By the ones whose hearts she helped mend....

saddens before strangers;

Blue, 
My tears, 
You give me 
Deep loneliness. 
Alone in the dark, 
Your gray night saddens me. 
You make me live in sorrow. 
But when I watch the azure sky, 
I know that the heaven goes with me 
Even during my life's lowest chapter....

how heartfelt
from
the broad
and
furious skies
singing 
its struggles,
overflowing
the heavens,
invading
fragments
of my soul
pressed
by each drop,

it saddens me
when the rain
chooses
to move along
with 
the passing
storm....

Oh
Box of 
Cookies, way
Up on the shelf
All I can do is
Stare at you, it saddens
me, for i am too small to
Reach you, For I am a toddler 
Who has yet to learn to walk and talk.

I think its pretty funny.....
it is what we all think of toddlers...

No poetry
This saddens me
to see

How do we find in return
Words from which to learn

Shyness comes in many forms
Like emotions and storms

Write a verse
You'll like it
Great LIT

Literature begins with a single letter
How else will we get better?...

Rain it comes but in plenty
Tearing down tears and gentry
As it rolls don to fall
I get the feeling of an abhorr
A abhorr why?
Because life saddens me a thats why.
To think that rain with it's name
Could huddle away all our worries and 
Leave us lighthearted and suavey!...

If what you write touches my artistic sense I am impressed
If what you write paints a picture with words I am also impressed
If what you write reaches deep into my soul with its humanity I am doubly impressed
However, if what you write is merely an expression of your own ego it saddens me...

Where had my smile gone?
I all this alot.
It was stolen from me;
I wish it were not.
My frown always saddens me;
But I can't seem to stop.
I tend to hurt my own feelings;
It's me at fault.
I feel so much despair, depression, & pain;
I sometimes believe that life's just a game.
...... & Here I shall remain.........

This morning when I awoke there was no sunlight in sky.
The sun had been replaced this morning by a grey sky.
Grey sky morning saddens my soul.
Grey sky morning repress my joy.
I know that every morning can’t be a blue sky 
lit up by the sun’s golden glow
I’m just glad every day don’t start with a
Grey Sky Morning....

There was ,
A time before,
When you was with her,
A time you was with him.

A time before,
You was happy,
So was she,
Somewhere in the middle,

Things got crazy,
There was a time,
It got really bad,
You both forgot.

About your kids,
There happiness,
There saddens,
There madness.

Do you remember,
Any of those,
Times at all?...

I have lived through
the greatest generations
of American achievement,
And it saddens me to read
how so many Americans
are in bereavement
For what they consider to be
the dying days
of our enterprising democracy,
While they live
in splendorous comfort
Because of our free enterprise—
such hypocrisy!

I try to take a selfie,
but it saddens me!
The face from my good old days
I no longer see.
“A Wrinkle in Time"
could be MY cover's title
now I’m past my prime!

Sept. 14, 2017 For the  Seguidilla Contest of nette onclaud

Inspired by line 2: I can smile at the old days ; I was beautiful then.
(and also by the famous novel title: A Wrinkle in Time)...

It makes a huge difference
that we are not under the same sun...
it makes a difference yes, because
moods vary...
Here the air is hot
oh it's all so cold...
Sweats are not the same
The chemistry varies a lot...
Distances drive us further apart...
The distances you know well
our eyes can't see each other anymore... ! This makes me crazy...!
Saddens me so... !...

We had words over words.
Though this saddens some
I find myself encouraged,
more hopeful for the future.

We had words over words
instead of rocks over words
or bullets over words
or bombs bursting over words.

The bruising of an ego
is less consequential
than the loss of a limb
or the loss of a life.

We had words over words,
we will live to write another day....

You've left this hole deep within me
Feel as though I cannot breathe
Can't let go of the past
I've lost the hope
You'll never see
Want to forgive you
This subject saddens me
Tears stream down my face
Overwhelming sadness
It burns, it stings, it even bleeds
I pray that someday you'll heal me
How can I forget?
I'd like to move on
But it still haunts me
I often wonder if you even love me...

You speak as if you want indeed
To be without in truth his rule
Yet act as if he you do need
Escaping not and you the fool
He fancies life as if it were
A gift for him a Godly dream
Whilst you and yours the mangy cur
He deigns anoint beneath his stream
It saddens dearly one to see
You wither e'en before your Fall
And fear to witness tragically
You shall escape him ne'er at all...

As human beings
some how we allow hatred to blind us
from the important things in life
Loving each other equally should be our mine priority
Is having A child like mind the key?
for the love from a child has no boundaries
killing the word racism
Knocking out barriers
looking threw that key
we could see that love
exist in all our hearts 
Saddens me tragedy 
always brings this out...

Meaningless, meaningless - everyone toils under the sun…
Is there anyone who knows how to love? Apart from the One?
My heart saddens, looking all in the face -
Where is a lonely heart to find loving-kindness & grace?
I am afraid of getting too close - because close means vulnerable -
A mistake I have committed too many times -
We are afraid of one another - but all craving the same - - -...
