Despondent Poems - Poems about Despondent

This longing in my heart A yearning as deep as the ocean An emptiness in my soul A void as the depth of the hades Like a fallen branch from off the vine I am as dead as the dried leaf Sired by a bloated wish and questions Hungry I am for a will to fulfill Lost to the course of myself The...

Uncooked grains of rice caked our apartment. Dug themselves into my pliable plantar aspect I welcomed you from the bottom of my being, Into my soul, A friend that made me feel whole. You dreamt of delicious dishes dancing In the taste buds of those you loved, An acid trip of flavors meant for those Whose love you longed to savor, But never did. You...

Oh, sad moon, you float alone in what used to be, your cloud nine, looking down despondently at me. I remember your illuminating glow, so gleeful at twilight. I remember the smile you wore yesterday when billions of your friends shared the sky with you. But tonight the sky is starless and you're now so blue. Smile, moon. Smile again! I'm here.

Each walk along the cobblestone of night reminds me how gladness becomes gloom a despondent lesion from a heart, while star-beam winks without a flare.

If you look deep into these sad hazel eyes You'll see a man tormented mirrored in the sands of time Clinging to the last strand of sanity in his burned out mind. Living out each day choosing to believe the lie Of dreams coming true while they pass him by. You'll see him hiding always from societies stares Locking himself...
