Sympathy Quotes

Standing up I felt faint
I had been there for hours
Wilting in Autumn’s chair
Along with Summer’s flowers
Contemplating the change
For what blossomed now cowers
All alone in that chair
For hours upon hours

Waking up I felt tired
I had been there for days
Avoiding my dreams’
And reality’s haze
With my body in yours
Soaking in your bouquets
But alone in that bed
For days upon days

Seeing light I felt shy
I had been there for years
In that corner of prison
Shutting eyes, covering ears
My absent motivations
Acting as puppeteers
All alone with my thoughts
In that prison, for years
(Poem by Cathlyn McCrorey)

I chose the road to hell
At 100 miles an hour
Indestructible

I chose the road to hell
As we ended what we had
Irreconcilable

I chose the road to hell
All my emotions scattered on the floor
Inconsolable

I chose the rode to hell
Or did it chose me
Inescapable
(Poem by Michael Meekins)

Slow cascade of black
filling my world
seeping in through
the cracks of my heart

All you left me
(Poem by Michael Meekins)

Hello pretty, I miss you my lovely dear,
The way you’d lean over to kiss me right here.
Your lips on my forehead would make it clear,
When I had done things right this year.

But if you weren’t there to guide me,
I don’t know if I would be able to see.
The back of your hand will always be,
The reminder to things I do wrong this year.

When the blood flows down
From the gash on my hips
A smile replaces frown
And I think of you on my lips
The taste of my happy tears
When I experience such pain
Help me forget about my fears
I told you love, it wasn’t in vain.

I think I’m finally a better person.
I love you sweetheart.
(Poem by HelplesslyFound)

Rose bud lullabies, singing softly
in silence, with no words to say
originality, longed for
by soft, tender lips.

Awaiting their prince, in a hurried dismiss
were maidens of beauty, none as divine
as the stunning appearance, of Narcissus.

Sorrowful eyes, the only option, to cry
silent goodbyes, within the mind
for a man who bid farewell, with no true goodbye.

Choke-hold grips, tightening around two hearts
living in silence, complete loneliness
never to smile, as love bids farewell, ready to depart
forever to live, filled to the brim, with emptiness.
(Poem by Julie)

Bury it down where it can’t escape,
Keep it away from caring eyes.
Repress the hate, deny the hurt,
Pray in silence that it soon will fade away.

Hide behind delusions of balance,
Convince the world that the pain is gone.
It hides within, consumes my soul.
I know someday I’ll lose control of all I am.

Tear down the wall of fabricated sanity,
Fight to embrace the burden of my mind.
Freedom awaits, I simply need to fight for it,
Find a way to burn the bridges to my past.

How do I find the doorway out of hell,
When all I feel keeps me hiding in the dark?
Can I find a way, can I make it out?
For this absolution, I must do whatever it takes.

Freedom waits, I simply need to fight for it,
Find a way to burn the bridges to my past.
(Poem by Ciarrai Manning)
