scoffing at heartaches of
lonely souls sobbing
in corners of the playground;
but the bully is really a coward.

The sound of morning birds 
I hear
Is a soft and constant sobbing. 
I could not sleep the night before, 
You'd think that no one did.

red passionate rose
dances, dropping wilt petals 
wan ivory keys

piano plays endless notes,
sobbing hushed old ardent tune

Alone

I'm alone
Nobody is here for me
I am so lost
I need someone
I am sobbing
Hyperventilating
Clinging on
But nobody is here for me

We Did Not Panic

Histrionically dramatic
Always loud and frantic
Her sobbing did not panic
Any of us substanic
Until we noticed 
The two by four sticking
Out of both sides of her head

Forgive and Let Him Go

Tell it to my eyes soaked with tears 
and my sobbing chest. 
To my mind heavy with thoughts 
and to my pieces of empty heart.
And my soul shot dead.

Why Cant They See You Grandma

the others were sobbing
wailing they were alone now
Shelly took grandma and her teddy bears to swing
why can’t they see you Grandma?
Death separates the nonbelievers she replied

• Orange you glad we're together forever? • With me always there, you're never alone • Even if some days you leave me sobbing • As I vent to my friend on the phone

Are We There Yet

Am I there yet?
Curved shoulders
As a turtle
Carrying home on 
Back
Are you there yet?
Collapsing from
Pressure
Like crying?
No
Sobbing requires 
Intake of breath
Are we

Done before begun

A Widow

the widow’s face
 so full of sadness
 is hidden under lace
 her sobbing fills the church
 as none could take her
 dear husband’s place

Where to

Where to
The heart wants something,
But obliged to deny the want.
Mind says something strong.
Strong enough to break the heart.
But all this sobbing and lullaby 
I don't know where it would land

Tanka 5

today's gray tides wash
sands where love's warm feet wandered . . .
i watch the sobbing 
surf scour the white surface smooth
leaving only tears of shell

Come to us each day
With sobbing eyes as they pray
Wishing to help us along the way
They were sent from up above
Showing how to love
Each other

No Soul

As my tears soaked the pillow below, my sobbing state broke the silence of the wind. The pain in my chest, too painful to be broken, too hurt to be whole. I look up to see a mirror. In my eyes, I saw no soul.

Tricky Mickey

There was once a pickpocket named Mickey
 
   Whose technique was quite deft and so tricky

      He would bilk you of cash

         And away he would dash

            Leaving you sobbing o'er yer gin rickey

Senryu- Ashes Trail Out With the Sky

draped close for the night
film scenes of you have no end -
mourning sobbing starts

Contemplating the Great Beyond

     There are those who squirm
        at the sight of the urn

     Others can’t mask it
        sobbing over a casket

     As for myself, I’m like the elf ~
        floating in formaldehyde on the shelf

When Wendy Grew Up

Woman, woman, let go of me
I remember again
how to cry and laugh
in the same breath

How far I have come, I wonder
to comfort a sobbing boy
by leaving the room
to think

I believe
I remember you
I once

Then For...

Sobbing so Softly
Living for Love
Crushed and Confused
Scream and Shout
Words for What
Leave it Lie
Down and Dead
Then for Today
Love is Lifeless
Forgive and Forget
Heal your Heart
Then for Tomorrow's
Love is Lifeless
