Sad Poem

Sad Old Man

by Wils

Sad Poems Contest Winner 
 
A flood of tears down inside
Though not a drop to see
My mind fills with thoughts of dark
A sad old man is me
 
Live myself a lonely life
Each day, pill after pill
Should I take them all at once?
Sweet relief from my ill
 
I pray for God to take me
I long to see his light
Happiness I'll have once more
When I slip into the night

Writing Prompt
Sadness has overcome us all at one time or another. Either caused by a relative or close friend's death or from the girl or guy that broke our heart or just life in general. We all handle situations differently, some good, some bad. This contest gives us the ability to explore this. Your poem can also play into other emotions that are common to writing like this such as anger or depression.
