sad poetry
The cathartic nature of poetry makes it one of the best outlets to channel feelings of sadness, emotional turmoil, grief and despair.
Echoes of Gaza
In Gaza's shadowed streets, where hope once gleamed, A land now echoes cries, dreams torn and screamed. Beneath a sky of smoke, where stars don’t shine, The children play in dust, where sorrow’s sign. Walls bear the scars of lives once bright and bold, Stories of a peace now fragile, cold. Mothers weep for sons they cannot hold, In Gaza’s breath, the pain, the loss unfold. Olive trees stand silent, roots entwined in grief, Land of broken promises, of stolen belief. The sea whispers lullabies, soft, forlorn, To a city caught in night, yearning dawn. Oh Gaza, cradle of endless strife, Where hope fights through the darkest life, May your tears one day be kissed by light, And peace return to end your night.

Journey from the Beaty to the beast
In the dance of sun and sky, a tale unfolds, Of warming winds and seas that boil and rage, Where once was balance, now chaos takes hold, As nature's voice cries out from every page. Glaciers weep, their tears a silent plea, For mercy from the flames we've lit below, The forests sigh, their breath a eulogy, For homes lost to the flames that grow and grow. But still, in darkness, there's a glimmer bright, A beacon of hope, a chance to mend our ways, To rise as one, to strive with all our might, And heal the wounds inflicted by our days. Let's heed the call, before it's far too late, To cool the Earth and calm its restless state.
