The Misery of Life

A sad, very true poem with one of my friends. . . .

Tears flow swiftly
down your saddened face.
You don’t know where to turn,
or where to go.

The thunder rumbles
as your mind breaks to pieces.
The storm that comes
reflects your life and misery.

You cannot speak
of what is wrong.
Nor can you see
what you have become.

“Please, my dear,”
I plead to the night.
“Don’t be angry
or scared or sad.”

I tell you, “I am here.
Please go back
to what you were
so you can be happy.”

For I am here,
and I will protect you
for the rest of our lives.
For all and eternity.”

Author's Note

I was depressed and anxious when I wrote this. Normally, my writing isn't very much like it, though I do have five or more sad poems.

Really beautiful. You really expressed your feelings through many great ways. I really love this line...
"The storm that comes
reflects your life and misery."
The storms and such really make me think about things. It's so calm, blocking you from the real world. Really enjoyed this piece because it reflected the way i feel sometimes. You did a nice job capturing emotion.
Thanks for the read! :D

This is really super good and reflects how you felt at the time. I wish I could write poetry when I feel sad...usually I just resort to my Bible and to my journal.
