Dead Road

Looking back, was the rose in me,
Looser having his heart savagely grime...

Looming at the jar,
Was the poisoned love.


Christmas Cold

Christmas cold gives you
A feeling of love that
Flows through your body  
It also free your mind
And spirit of unhappy feelings

Many Unhappy Returns

It’s a work day
And it’s my Birthday
All the fours
Male menopause
A Grade - A
Gray Day
Life’s not designed
To be kind
Never mind – eh!

Unhappy Tommy Macguigan

He wasn't blessed with a big'un

'Twas rather a shrimp

And usually limp,

Poor little thing, best kept hidden.

Lately I have been feeling so happy and so rappy.
But whenever I get snappy, I go for a nappy.
Just never make me feel so unhappy nor either so crappy.

To Not Live, Is To Die Unhappy

Upon the porch he sat,
rocking;
ninety-years of flesh and blood;
The cloudless sky above
seemed
to tell the story of his life;
and he regretted this.

Cost of Happiness

Everybody likes happiness,
But most in unhappy,
If it is a commodity,
There is a ready market,
At any cost,
Smile is the gate way of happiness,
To some!

it is never a great day
to have pink eye or shingles or hives
Every time I get these maladies
it is an unhappy reminder that
today will not be a great day

Unhappy Love

There once was a charming young chap,
who sat on a lovely girl's lap.
When she saw his great lust,
she was filled with disgust,
and fervently gave him a slap!

Premium Member False Body Image

I am unhappy with myself.
My body is clearly overweight
(And starving clearly isn't going to help).
I think I've lost some,
But it's just a water-weight illusion.

Sunny Darkness

I'm trouble,
a blissful whisper of night rain
pouring into a street of mayhem.

a unhappy happiness that make me
uncomfortable.

there are no simple raindrops.

There once was an amazing unicorn,
Whose coat was confusedly shaved and shorn,
She’s a little bit mad.
Called the barber a cad,
And was a moment, a little forlorn.

I Was

I was just just minding my own business when it happened 
I was a teenage girl with problems and had nobody to talk to
I was so depressed, sad, and unhappy.

Rain Story

It rained for days after you left me 
As the rain tells his story
I felt good happy no longer lonely 
I can’t say I’m sad or unhappy 
I’m happy but I do still miss you

Premium Member Speaking of Happiness

Speaking to an unhappy man of one's earthly happiness 

is like displaying to a starving man food he cannot have!

For Life Itself Is a Service

I am unhappy
in this situation,
and yet. . .
Does not a dandelion
blossom even when alone,
praying to a desolate street lamp?
