Sadness Poems
Reasons To Kill Myself
by Frangipani Rhett
My dad is a creep
My mom is a sucker
They're doing the best they can but I guarantee they could do it better
I hate living at home
I wanna live in Bali
I'm stuck in this circumstance
I was five minutes late now they're gonna fire me
I'm old now and single

Reasons I am sad
by Yuki No-Hana
Reasons I'm sad
Cuz, I lost what I had
Cuz, I'm mad
on what you said
Cuz, good people fade
Cuz, I'm not sure
for what I was made
I'm sad
Cuz, I think I'm bad

Alone In Our Thoughts
by Jeffrey Pipes Guice
As the sun shines through the leaves...
Peering through in the shape of a heart...
Our park benches sit so empty...
As insecure love drifts apart...
Your hand no longer clutching mine...
On the walks which we no longer go...
The emptiness runs oh so deep...
Like a well with no bottom below...

by Kevin Junior Ojang Ojong
I sat with a man long enough, and I didn’t know his name. We were together always, and together never.
He came to me when I called, and he came when I did not. Cloaked in black with a sash of red like blood distilled, a red that could not be described.
He had fire in his eyes and always wore an expression that terrified me.
We sat in silence while the steam rose from his body, and his answers to all questions were grunts and grunts alone.
“What is your name?” I asked him and he said “I am an emotion”. I thought to myself then you must be Anger.

Little Soldiers
by Lee-Ann Azzopardi
Let the warm tears fall onto
The pink roses
For they shall water them
With sorrow
Until the day of joy has come
Like little soldiers ready to do battle
You're My Deep Breath
by Frangipani Rhett
Today my child slammed the door too hard
And I took a deep breath and thought of you
You set the standard for how to show love
And so I shifted towards compassion
Last Sunday I met up with a friend for coffee
And she talked for so long, I got bored
I took a deep breath and thought of you
And remembered the presence you gave me

Bucket Pain
by Ally Bell
If pain were a bucket,
You'd be the largest one,
Pouring your trauma out like a faucet
Unto those who show you love
You're like a raging storm,
Leaving destruction in its wake
With thunderous words filled with hate
Yet still, I saw in you the potential to create
When you saw yourself as someone who should have never been born

A New Car
by Frangipani Rhett
She didn't know what she was doing
On her own to buy a car
There was only interest offered
From her tyranical abuser
Lying silently, draped over her bed
She tried to plan it out
How she'd know which car to buy and buy it
Before she gave in to her dad's "support"
