Sorrows Poems - Poems about Sorrows

In the vault of sorrows, the lights are dim, Memories dangle stiff, stark, cold and grim. In glass-fronted vaults of remains half-dead, Haunting to avenge losses, regrets and dread. Bitterness is grit, dust and rust— Metal relics wrapped in tempered crust. Too sharp to hold, too old to appeal, Scars embalmed, behind bars of steel. Fur skins and feathered bones, long dead. Eyes once...

The ocean is home to a curation of shells, The type you admire, the kind you call into, The ones that whisper stories the sea never tells. The peach and the pink, the pastels and the white — All of them bring such a sense of delight. I trace my finger over each and every grove and indent, Each fracture and...

Your timing, O God, is flawless, they say, Mercy spills from Your eternal edge. I cling to that truth, yearning for solace, Yet it slips as I bleed through the years. Woes swarm like static, sharp with insult, Words that cut, leaving a thousand wounds. Will You, my Maker, cradle me close, When tears and fragments are all I am? If pain is...

Let all bye gone Be bye gone The preacher man Keeps teaching Let them correct you When you're wrong Be guided, so you don't go astray. Wake up he says From the darkness Come into the light He keeps teaching In the light no deceit You see and know Everything behind, beside and ahead of you. The people always Endure and enjoy...

Life is but a song of sorrows, Days can feel like miserable melodies. Our heartstrings plucked, Chords that resonate with tragedy. The beating drum, a dark percussion, Can serve as rhythm to the chorus of our love and joy. That which is memorized by heart, In every generation, the song is sung. In every life, a note is played— Lows...

My friend, how deep can be your sorrows? Through smoke filled maze of modern days When time flies by in bleary haze And we don't know about tomorrow? Your eyes, once bright and full of life, Nowdays, instead, to my dismay, Are filled, like rainy days of May, With hate, and pain, and fright. No, you can't plea, no, you can't flee, 'Cause life...

The lonely shadow aside from the worldly poles Wrenching like an unhidden find to hold And the horrible ink of dreadful poison swiftly mold Eyes were injurious red like a bleeding bed Thoughts of frightful threads wrap and rashly roll the clutching traps Shadow envelopes like a black door Tears were tip and tapped one after more Shadow of...

The Aspen quaked in mild calm. A stream nearby sent riffled song. This trail less trod now almost gone. ‘Twas barren once now grown quite long. Around a bend and down a steep therein the brush from somewhere deep here mixed with woodland chirps and cheeps slid sounds and sobs of sorrows weeps. Out there somewhere in higher grass beyond the tangled thorn tree...

Full moons fill you with joy, seldom the New, And pleasure you conceive as good, not pain, Let me like New Moon that stars can I view, As some poets devise ways pain to feign, Which, helps them pen dirges and elegies, Funeral hymns and odes of laments long, Let them. Days-nights on an eternal lease, One can’t be...

No one knows how deeply she yearns, For those who chase their destined way, And let their passion's compass sway. No one knows how her spirit burns With dreams that slipped through time's decay— Regrets that haunt her day by day. No one knows her...

My knees held tightly to my chest, I thought the storm clouds were miles off in the distance, Of someone else's distress. But morning came, and the storm remained. No water nor washing could wipe away the stains of sorrows And restlessness from my covers- My detrimental haven... I could rot away here, the irony being I already do. What treasures can...

Once a naive child Sought after the sea To feel as vivid blue As the depths of it Ventured in too far Got swallowed by a wave Trapped into the waters Dissolving into them Hence why I have no body No place to keep my soul Passed on all my sorrows To waves crashing on the shore ...

I feel so caged, Having to see the same walls, Over and over again. I think I’m losing my mind. I wish to see the whole world, But the dream Fades away in the blink of an eye. I am so lonely, I think I’m losing my mind. I feel life fades away, Until there is nothing to feel again. My smile turns to tears, Joy turns...

You walk around with a weapon in your mouth demoralizing the women as you walk about; you have set a dangerous tone in the town, and it has caused the people to live in doubt. You have cause chaos everywhere you go and your un-bridled tongue will destroy the show. You have been ranting and...
