sad poetry
The cathartic nature of poetry makes it one of the best outlets to channel feelings of sadness, emotional turmoil, grief and despair.
Drown Awake
Dripping in azure– as I sink deeper in your empty swimming pool.
Blueberries
strong roots is sadness blueberries “Squelch” beneath my feet sticky it never leave

Treading in salt skin as I swallow the ocean– Deep blue in deep blue.
Heartbreak
Grief steals ragged breath like drowning, floundering gasps I still needed you. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Colorless
On you heaven looked Bright, like your eyes when they fell On me. I miss blue. __________________________________________________________________
