Ben was a sorrowful sight
He hadn't slept a wink all night

Forevermore

Gazing past the oblong glass I understand profoundly this beauty...
Broken heart's this beauty, in sorrowful eyes; priceless precious lives.

Not So Easy To Find

Sloths running around
sidewalks...
Elephants sans "trunks"...
Sorrowful crying hyenas...
Happy and satisfied men...!
Table legs walking,,

Clouded sky in tears
Sorrowful sunrise
Midday monotony
Blues at sunset
Sleepless slumber
Midnight madness
Nightmare alley
Rude awakening

Silent snowfall covers the blooms and newly budding green
Hear the mourning doves sorrowful cries
It's supposed to be spring

Serene solace succors my sorrowful soul sufficiently in a supreme solitude.

Sorrowful Ghoul

I am a sorrowful ghoul,
With a tear in my eye that refuses to fall,
A hollow stomach thirsting for life,
But a soulless body, full and satisfied...

hitting someone hard
in sheer pain
needing relief and respite
gruesome reality
lacking strength
energy annihilated
sorrowful amount of pain

to become prima donnas

on a sandy grave
poverty's roses are placed
by sorrowful hearts

Combined souls enjoy a fond heart

Perspective

Gradient into vast blue
Sorrowful and unexplored
Unsure if its even there
From ocean to ice crystals
Sky splashed with white lightning
it is so calm
but oh so alone

Premium Member Please Adopt Me

he looked at me 
with those sorrowful 
puppy dog eyes 

I had no other choice 
then to take him home 

after all he was wearing 
my best shoe 

what was I to do ?

Tomorrow

Tonight,
I embrace the life of fight,
Gripping what is in sight,
And extinguishing the existence of light.

Tomorrow,
I am sorrowful
Regretful
And no longer powerful

Strong

The heart of me is sorrowful
the heart of me is in pain.
But the heart of me is strong 
and will prevail through the
fire that the Devil has
set up for me, so I can burn
Form: Verse

Atmospheric Love Emotion

The refrigerator breeze, air in motion, recycled E, air enables emotions, resembles diminutive crush gusts to giant sorrowful storms which scales the love of motion.

Reality's Restitution

Solidarity follows
What humility begets

Hilarity follows
When humanity forgets

Sorrowful wallows
We panic, we regret

Indemnity follows
A species drowning in debt

Spiritual Tenancy

Leasing eternity…
 sorrowful joy
Rent paid in moments
death’s choirboy
Light deeded tenure
sight to regain
Conceptual escrow
—vision’s domain

Angst
Nerve-racking 
Intensifying stressful tensions
Anguished, worrisome, troubling, sorrowful

Rain

A colorless day, cast in shades of muted gray Teardrops falling from a sorrowful sky Running down the face of His creation To be wiped away by the fingers of the sun
