Sobbing Poems - Poems about Sobbing

The Space Between Hands
The Space Between Hands Always left alone in the corner of the room, Often wondering if something’s missing in the gloom. Head down, tears falling — can’t stop the flow, Sobbing in silence, hoping no one will know. Never reaching the end with someone in stride, Letting go halfway, with no goodbye implied. Then surrender comes, with the whisper, “Go ahead?” But “why?”...

Premium Member Tears
So many tears – throughout the years Tears of doubt when I hoped to find out That love would win – against my sin Tears of yearning in my heart, gently burning Filling me with an ache – but I didn’t break Tears of compassion who’re never out of fashion Though understanding left my soul withstanding So many tears who could quiet...

Premium Member With Tears
Silent tears hold the loudest pain - author unknown. Just when I think no one will know, There comes a soft and gentle flow, Silently sighing o’er the light, Stirring my heart’s kindness to glow. Reflected on moments so bright, Painting my soul with dreams I write, Vows broken never can reveal, Spoken by those who know my plight. Wonders, breathless, are quite real, Capture...

Premium Member Frightened Sobbing
Written: September 08, 2023 ______________________________________________________________ In the realm of fearless pranks, we meet, Where weakfish lump and teardrops greet. A sluice of inducement we embark upon, With words that excoriate as a lethal swan. With a droplet of grit and a split decision, We dismantle our panic with precision. Such a weak swimming against the tide, We defy expectations; we won't hide. In this...

Premium Member Stop Taking Her For Grant It
We exploit her gifts, polluting, robbing. Mother earth has a soul and we've all heard her sobbing.. Too many species are now extinct. We need to slow down, reassess, think.. Exxon, Shell, Chevron need new tools, stop their reliance on our fossil fuels. These companies must end their greedy ambitions. They are responsible for 71% of our global emissions.. We've known that it's coming. Don't act...

Sunrise Ritual
an early mourning stroll, and hours spent passing through as many neighbourhoods, and sometimes you sob so violently that you cannot contain noises breaking past your lips, sounds usually repressed. sometimes you can only sob while pacing the streets, and sometimes you must spend hours shaking, shaking, pacing the streets. step after step. you roll your shoulders, gasp; ...

That Day
THAT DAY That day started as any other day, Then I saw your face swollen and warm, I think I knew then. I made the call and drove you there, I handed you over, not wanting to let go, I think I knew, That you wouldnt be coming home. During the long day I knew, I sobbed I was so worried, The call came, After listening...

Premium Member I Sit Sobbing
I’m staring at the reflection in the mirror - who is the lady with the grey hair? Today a strange man came to visit me I do not recognise him … He says he is my son I try hard to remember as we talk about the past He shows me photographs of his childhood years Memories come back to me; I...

Beneath the Sobbing Willow
Beneath the sobbing willow, In her white dress, she stood still. Eyes closed to the clouds above her, Hair dancing to the wind's tune. She has unspoken words, And no voice to speak. She held a breath and soon let it go. With her hand tightly grasping her dress, She painfully knelt. And beneath the sobbing willow, He saw a woman in pain. Unable...

Sobbing of Mother
Sobbing of Mother Who would be more knower definition of love? When mother’s son sleeps untimely on the pool of blood Timid when fires bullet triggering gun Nozzle remains to outlet without cause There, price of tear of mother’s Crazy estimates fumbling fun Alas! Right track would have been there Ah! Could flow from the heart To them who are laid down...

Of Sobbing Flames
Love's last light throws ember shadows sighing coals cast waning arrows of sobbing flame on lukewarm ground; twilight spits into the fire, but cannot slake my starved desire, bereaved heart cloaked in misery's gown. How dare Cupid so fickle turn exchanging smiles for face now stern stealing my regal red rose crown. ©Faye Lanham Gibson, June 12, 2014...
