Sometimes life challenges us in ways that tax our soul. Our Dark Depressing Poetry collection provides a healthy outlet to express your blue mood in a poetic way.
Thinking of what others have
Makes me both mad and sad.
It seems like the harder I work
The less I achieve.
Everyone is jubilant,
Yet I still grieve.
I don’t want a lot
Just a bit more than what I’ve got.
I’m looking around the park
And all I can see -
Many happy couples
Staring at me.
They watch me walking by myself
As I pretend on my cell phone
That I’m waiting for him,
And I’m not really alone.
Tossing and turning
Unable to sleep.
While others happily live their lives
All I seem to do is weep.
Nobody understands;
Nobody can see
The person I am
Is not really me.
Would they like me?
Would they care?
If they knew
The weird thoughts inside my head
Imagining the world if I was dead.
There is so much
That needs to be done.
More than just a little,
But less than a lot.
Just a few things
That I need to stop.
I need to stop
Comparing myself to others.
I have to stop
Wishing I was someone else.
I must stop
Putting others ahead of me.
I wish I could stop
Beating myself down.
Sometimes people
Come into our lives
And leave unmovable imprints.
They introduce us to new things
And inspire us to dream greater.
You’re my best friend, and now
You’re leaving.
Although I want to wish you well,
Sadness feels my heart;
I never thought we’d ever be apart.
