Hi Peoples!

I started this thread to post some of my depressing poetry that i like to write. Typically it is lyrical poetry. It’s not very good so you will have plenty to call out a critique. If anyone else has any depressing poetry to post you are welcome to join me in this thread. I’ll post a short one to kick things off. It’s horrible I know but hey! I never claimed to be a good poet. LOL!

 

Last Chance

Give me one last

Give me one last chance

I need a little more time tonight

To prove myself to you

I need more time to fight

I know I failed you last time

But I promise you I won’t this time

 

Give me one last

Give me one last chance

I need a little more of you trust

To prove my love to you

Before I turn to dust

I know I am a dirty wreck

But I promise I will do better this time

I have a short excerpt from a song I wrote around October. Hope you enjoy.

—

I feel like there’s too much space,

Not enough love, not enough grace,

To help me rise from my broken down state.

I’m tired of living, the same old stuff every day,

But I’m afraid to die, so I struggle on anyway,

No one ever seems to hear me when I say,

There’s too much happening around me,

And I’m feeling lonely,

Are my friends here for me,

Or will they leave me?

 

I’m not okay, but I cover it up like a mistake.

All this love of ours does is take,

My face is a mask, and no one knows,

That my mind is in a different place.

I’m afraid of dying,

But if it all faded away, that would be fine.

 

“Tears sparkle like fallen stars, the world at our fingertips, We didn’t know, It wasn't happiness.

Thanks for the tag!! If I come up with something depressing, I’ll chime in.

Psalm 119:11
Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.

I guess this is kinda depressing. Lonely for sure.

The Road
It’s a lonely road to travel
Paved with stones, a path of gravel
Heart is aching, strengths unravel
With the weight of the load

Seems I’ve walked and walked for decades
Feet are aching, cut on rock blades
Hacked from bitter words cascades
And no one shares the load

Oh this weary road I’ve traveled
I have walked it for years
Yet no friend have I found on it
Not a one to share tears
It’s the cry my heart is screaming
For a friend I’m dreaming
It’s a lonely road to travel
When no one shares the load

A friend’s love would brighten the days
Lift my head and clear all this haze
Clouding my view with dark grays
Yet no one shares the road

If they fall down, I’d help them stand
Be refreshing in burning sand
Strengthen each other as we trek this land
But not one friend I know

Oh this weary road I’ve traveled
I have walked it for years
Yet no friend have I found on it
Not a one to share tears
It’s the cry my heart is screaming
For a friend I’m dreaming
It’s a lonely road to travel
When no one shares the load

It’s a lonely road to travel
When your heart crumbles like gravel
Watching your strength unravel
With the weight of the load

Will the road ahead be barren
Always ring with cry of raven
Will no soul come be my haven
Come walk along the road

Psalm 119:11
Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.
