Sad Poems

The End Of My Days

DownUp +6

Life is why we all exist.
Life is what some resist.
We all live in a chamber of solitude.
Some develop a depressed attitude.
No joy can ever be let out
but sadness can always come in.
No one can ever hear a shout
and happiness becomes a sin.
If I could die right now, I would.
If I would die right now, I should.
Life is cruel, life is unfair.
If I should die, who would care?
My chamber keeps growing small,
my heart seems ready to fall.
My sad soul has flown away,
my body is not here to stay.
Being a sad soul is what I’m meant to be,
being dead is my final destiny.

A Simple Smile, A Scream Inside

DownUp +59

There’s so much no one knows,
So much that no one sees,
About the way I feel inside, my thoughts and all my needs.

Maybe it’s the fact that they don’t look,
Or the fact that I don’t show,
Either way, there are things inside that no one seems to know.

I want to show the world,
I want everyone to see,
All the thoughts and ideas that flow inside of me.

Maybe you haven’t noticed,
Or maybe you didn’t dare,
To find out who I am, to show me that you care.

I’m screaming on the inside,
A smile is what you see,
But I’m not content with the person I seem to be.

There’s a different person on the inside,
That I can’t seem to show,
But maybe if you took the time, that person you could know.

Pain

DownUp +29

Scars she couldn’t hide
Bruises on her back
Pain she always felt
Love is what she lacked.
She never really knew
Or understood why
He loved to see her hurt
And loved to see her cry.

One day she began to tell him
Just what was on her mind
She never got to finish
The words were left behind.
She never saw it coming
Not a thought was in her head
She lay there on the floor
Cold, alone, and dead.

Addiction

DownUp +7

How did I let you come in and control all of my life?
How can something like you cause me so much sadness and strife?

You controlled when I cleaned, you controlled when I worked
The responsibilities I had you made me shirk
You made me neglect all the things that I held dear
You made me do things that I would normally fear
You made me sleep and controlled when I woke
You made me start rows, you made me provoke
You controlled when I bathed, you didn’t care if I wasn’t clean
You made me become selfish, you made me be mean
You made me believe things that were lies and not true
You left me feeling sad, so lonely and blue

But because of all these things you have made me wise
Because of all these things I have come to realize
That there’s no point in fighting a battle I’ll never win
There’s no point trying to take it on the chin
Today is the day that I give up the fight
Today is the day that I surrender to your might

Mirror Image

DownUp +29

When i look in the mirror,
all i see is a girl,
unfamiliar to me
As the strangers we see every day
This girl i see wears a mask
to hide who she truly is inside
I see a fake smile
to hide her sorrow
Every day, I see this girl
and Every day people fail to see me,
inside the fake
She talks to me
to keep her from going insane,
All the while crying
to heal the pain

Whats inside

DownUp +38

She’s got the looks,
she’s got the clothes,
but what’s inside nobody knows.
She’s got the attitude,
she’s got the style,
something is hidden but she covers it with a smile.
Her life is hell,
nobody cares,
no one sees inside,
no one sees her tears.
She’s locked herself up,
and thrown away the key,
no one will understand,
no one will ever see.

Lucky/Unlucky

DownUp +10

I stare up at the sky so blue,
because there is nothing else to do.
I think about the kids who’s parents are dying,
while I sit there, I start crying.
They have no food or water,
but there is constant slaughter.
These kid’s live in strife,
just think that you are lucky for you have a life.

Lost Child

DownUp +7

I don’t know how hard it is
to raise a child like me.
I’ve been a bad child,
I’ve caused you tears,
and still, you are here with me.

I remember the time when I ran away,
mom kept looking for me.
She spent her night waiting for my call,
but I ignored it, so insensitive,
I just wanted to be free.

Dad talked to me, hugged me tight,
and said “I love you my dear child, do you feel it?”
and here I am knowing it’s true,
I had the guts to hurt him.

I’m a selfish child who wants to be free,
but couldn’t sleep if mom’s not beside me.
I’m a selfish child who wants to grow fast,
but couldn’t face the angry world
without a grip of dad’s hand.

Despite everything and anything that I would do
How far can I go if I don’t have you.
Mom and dad, now that I’ve grown old
I don’t have the guts to say what I’ve done wrong.
So full of shame and regret,
sorry might not be enough…
sorry might be too late.

Years have passed, there’s this one day,
I came back, a surrender of conscience.
I saw them both sitting in racking chairs,
watching the clouds and garden full of flowers.
I hugged them tight, even when they can’t recall my name.
Mom asked me why I cried, she can’t remember who she used to wait for at night.
Dad held my hand, told me to calm down…
and asked me who I am and if the nurse was around.

These are the words of once a stubborn child,
love your parents while you still can.
While they still remember who you are,
while they feel they love you more and more each day.

Regret comes last,
when it is too late to make up for wrong things done.
So love your parents while they still hope you can…

End of Pain

DownUp 0

Like every other night this week
I crawl into bed wishing to fall asleep
I feel a pain worse than death
I want to hold my breath
To end my life – to end this pain
I don’t want to be apart of this game
Unable to cry more tears
I hope this means my end is here.

The One

DownUp +7

Nothing at all is going right
Everything is wrong
I try to smile and look all bright
But nothing changes at all
The pain is deep
Below the surface
A thing you cannot see
I try and try to plead out loud
Will someone please help me?
But no one out there will listen
No one at all will heed
So as I weep all by myself
I pray that I’ll die in my sleep
No one that cares
No one that looks
Beyond the shallow pool
And see’s the person inside of me
And there’s nothing I can do
No one that hugs me
And says its ok
But it doesn’t matter because
I know its a lie
Nothing is ok
I will never find ‘the one’.

Fear – No more!

DownUp +5

When my emotions stop flying high
And my soul will no longer cry

When my eyes are blind to the pain
My mind stops worrying ’bout going insane

When my heart has broken for the last time
My fingers not writing another rhyme

When my mouth can’t speak no more,
While my body falls and hits the floor

When my ears are deaf to hear
Then I guess I feel no more fear.

Emptiness exist

DownUp +4

Emptiness is like the hollow of a tree
It clings to the dark
And lurks around every corner
Shadows begin to shrivel and slowly run away in fright
Cold covers any awaken creature and
Covers them in dark path
The air is dead with in the night
Not even the moon will come and greet
An echo will be carried in the wind
But will slowly vanish
Without a trace
Clouds will cover like a blanket
To show that emptiness does exists

Tears Fall Like Rain

DownUp +7

Tears fall like rain
Tears fall like rain from my eyes
Like a rainfall from my eyes
The pain I was caused
You put it all on me
I was destroyed because of you
Now I wish I could go back
To the love I now hate and despise
To the wonder that you took away
To the happiness I will never know again
And to the days I did not cry
The days where all I could be was happy
Those things taken away
As the tears fall like rain from my eyes

Behind Guarded Eyes

DownUp +11

Just a simple smile
It’s amazing what you can hide
It’s so easy to pretend
With everyone so blind

Just a few small words
It’s all so fake
Am I living in a nightmare?
Or am I awake?

It’s hard to say
How I really feel
Is it a misunderstanding?
Or is it real?

Who to trust
It’s hard to be sure
Who will care?
I’m confused once more

Deep within the soul
The truth lies
Hidden from the world
Behind guarded eyes

Pain

DownUp +10

I feel pain every day
its hard to make it go away
I lie in bed at night and cry
telling myself that I’ll get by
as tears run down my cheek
I can hardly speak
I feel so weak
nobody knows the pain i feel
but it is very real
so as i lye in bed tonight
I tell myself everything is alright
because i know i can make it through another day
Just trying to fight the pain away

Dreams

DownUp +1

Whispers on the ocean tide
Flow as softly as the skys
they flow to you
and tell you I said good-bye

Screams and yells
come from the skys
as pain and sorrow
wash through your eyes

I cry and hurt
as my body twitches
finally I become still
and I began to die

Finally I am died
and gone to heaven above
I meet a man who whispers to me
If you want you can go back to him

I say no, I cant because I’ve hurt you
I left you on purpose
so that i dont hurt you
but in truth i hurt you anyway

I walk to a garden
and sit on a stump
I began to cry
I hurt for you
I cry for you
and most of all I love you

Unnoticed

DownUp +3

Please tell me why,
he never notices me,
maybe it’s because I’m too shy,
If only he could see,

That I’m not always quiet,
like people think I am,
I can chat to the best I can,
but it’s so hard when people say your the one who’s well, quiet!

If only he could looked past all that,
and see who i truly am,
he might take more notice of me…….
…but maybe it was not meant to be.

Alone

DownUp +4

People look at me,
I’m not quite sure what they see.

This thought stay in my mind at all the time.
I sit and think about how my life used to be, when it was only you and me.

I feel like a ghoul,
i don’t know where’s my soul.

I feel hopeless,
As i sit in the darkness i think of nothing but my sadness.

I have realized im alone, with no one to hold,
But i guess I’m just another lost soul
sitting all alone.

Why? (2nd night alone)

DownUp +4

I am a very inquisitive person
I’m just that kind of guy
My favorite sign is a question mark
My favorite word is “Why”
I don’t always get the answer, or even an answer
But I never fail to try
Sometimes my answers are questions
My why begets a why, begets a why, begets a “Why?”
Why do I dream of me walking?
When in my dreams I can fly?
And no matter how I soar,
Why can’t I touch the sky?
I wear glasses to look in the mirror
Why can’t I look me in the eye?
And why is it every time I do
I smile, I look away and I sigh?
Is it because I don’t like what I see?
Or maybe I am just “naturally shy”?
Nope, that’s not true.
Though it’s not often I tell a lie
I look away in disgust of what I see
Can I help it if my standards are that high?!
They slipped quite a bit of late
I used to be a perfectionist in days gone by
I know I have changed. All things change
Only, why?
Yea, and why is it I no longer cry when I’m hurt?
Is it because now it even hurts to cry?

Like an animal

DownUp +3

I used live in a sweet dream,
But I woke up into a nightmare reality,
I feel like an hurt animal,
Don’t let anyone get close to me – I trust no one,
I feel lonely, but I’m not alone while being alone,
The only one who can take care of me is the reflection of myself in the puddle,
There is no way back, I must stand headed up on the ground,
I must keep walking but all I have is a memory of you,
I turn back to see you, and your coolness is freezing my heart,
That makes me nervous like a beast,
The anger keeps rejecting you from my memory,
I convince myself that I don’t know you,
I don’t want to remember how I was so high in the sky when the storm got close and the lighting got through my heart,
I was in abyss but I scrambled out from there,
Now I found a safe place in someone’s heart…
