Oh, hear this woeful girl's prayer, such a deep sorrow sigh; will this heart ever stop hurting, to Heaven these tears fly. For here, I sit forlorn and lost, within this box of grief; and fear another dawn and day, which brings impending fate. Oh, I am stained with the...

Woeful Victory
(Lizzie Siddall, the Pre-Raphaelite artist's model, has just married Dante Gabriel Rossetti ... and now regrets it.) Why could it not have been agreeable? What steered me down this unforgiving cleft?

Philosophical Poetry Week: Woeful Wednesday
Wednesday’s woe has come again Washing o’er my longing brain All the way down the long dark drain. Sat on a bench with naught to gain, I stare on bleakly in the rain.

Woeful Year
Farewell, thou woeful year, Of your woes I got my full share And grieved my heart in pain and care But now, of your days, I have spend the last That onwards you be known my past As I, with glee, set my back upon your sight And look ahead on tomorrow’s year With the last shred of my bartered hope It was...
