Two Poems from our Sad, Grief, Sympathy, Broken Heart Poetry Collection

 
 
EMOTION IS THE BASTARD SON OF A POET
   
Author: Ricky Mclean
   
Poem:
EMOTION IS THE BASTARD SON OF A POET
   
  I'm on a tirade
one more stagnant poem
from becoming a literary renegade
once looked high above me
toward a selected few
now, all i see are dinosaurs
time for an upgrade
try something new

It is by evolution that laws are remade...
wait, am i rapping?
no..
bitten by a poet, lost in his own genre trapping
that's ok
i've already paid
blood, guts, torment
Locking myself in the devils basement
he doesn't seem to care
he has already received his payment
Easy, demon
i'm not going on a warpath with this one
i've dropped my baggage
it weighed a french tonne
i'm throwing it into your oven
it's toxic, you'd better run

So, my proprietors of a cafe called exaggeration
here is the theme of my rhyme
if you had given the time of day
to a poet who lost his way
this subtle rebuke would have been avoided

When it comes to the evocation of emotion
you poetic aristocrats don't have the guts
to drink my nostalgia

Dad
   
Author: Samantha Beachey
   
Poem: Dad
   

Dad you were my best friend
I could tell you everything,
You used to listen,
used to talk.

What happened?
I can't tell you anything
you don't listen and
we only say a few words now.

Look I'm not a little girl
I have grown,
this is when
I need you the most.

Now, all I see is the door closed,
that ugly brown door where it is always locked,
Afraid to get yelled as if I knock
so you are left alone.

When you're playing games
afraid of interrupting to ask you something
as it is more important
so I left you alone.

Then, you wonder what's wrong.
I say nothing as afraid of saying samething wrong,
or you saying it's no big thing.
It is to me.

I'm doing this on my own,
I've grown to relize you are a shadow.

All is afraid
of doing everything wrong.

Dad, I hope
one day you relize
what's wrong.
