Poetry collection – Sadness and Hope

So much sadness
For all that could have been
For all that should have been
For all you could have done
For all you should have done
So much sorrow in the past
The past that is long gone
And that will never come back
Embrace, weep for it, cry for it
But know that the future has yet to come
There is hope

Emotions bottling up
Tension inside of me
A tensed jaw
Nothing else to disturb the thoughts
Focus goes back to it
Again and again full force
Powerless inside of me
Lostness and overwhelm
Stressed by merely looking at it
A dead end and no way out
Where is the path
What grounds me now
In this lost situation
The thought of not being alone
Others feel the same
Even if I don’t see them
We stand together
Tall against it
We know change is coming

Full of weight, heavy
Sitting on you like tons
Tons of sadness, sorrow and grief
Where they come from
You don’t know
You don’t know the start
The beginning of all this struggle
Just emotions overflowing you
Nowhere else to do
Take them, collect them
Flow them out of you
Into art, poetry, songs
Your way of crying out sorrow
Share with us
We are here to hear
