So Sad Yet So Beautiful...

in poetry •  7 years ago 

As I was searching for a good read I came across a poem that I thought was worth sharing.

I hope you all enjoy this poem as much as I do. The ability to use words to express such thoughts, pain, and raw emotions is just fascinating to me...

A poem by Jadedembers

Pain Seduced Sadness
Smoke flows around
Swirling through my hair
Cascading down my wings
Turning them black

Demons of pain and misery
Plucking the gorgeous
Feathers from my back
Casing scarlet to streak
The blackness
Dripping pain onto the
Filthy floor.

Pain breeds misery;
Misery is diabolical
Wrapped in a
Pretty glittery bow.

Its a charming
Fable for the
Weakness within mankind.

It seductively convinces
That being alone is best.
A fortress is built
Day by day.
Slowly throwing everyone
Who genuinely loves you
Over your new walls.

Thinking you have
Discovered the soultion
To the issue of pain,
Turning to complete isolation.

Clever pain it is when it
Seduced sadness
To create misery,
Because misery is a
Unusually carasmatic murderess;
The ultimate black widow.

Becoming so lonely
You loose yourself inside
The mind,so deep, that it
Lovingly embraces insanity.

Leading pain and misery to
Laugh sadisticly as you
Hang from the
Weeping willow in the park.

Indeed beautiful!

nice words ,very beautiful poem

Unspeakable comment for this poetry. Stunning

This poem has reminded me a friend of mine who is struggling with cancer. Ended pain seduces sadness. But with care and love we believe that he will loose the sadness.
We the steemit community should continue supporting our communities either through various outreach, visits, events, contribution,....

I like it
You're awesome
Keep up the good work

really touchy. thanks for sharing.

OMG this is both lovely and depressive:

Becoming so lonely
You loose yourself inside
The mind,so deep, that it
Lovingly embraces insanity.

Leading pain and misery to
Laugh sadisticly as you
Hang from the
Weeping willow in the park.

I've recently joined Steemit and I've written about human life value philosophy, feel free to check it out if the topic sounds interesting.

Love it

Teardrops are in my eyes... Beautiful poem.

Really struck a chord with me. This is beautiful writing!

"Thinking you have
Discovered the soultion
To the issue of pain,
Turning to complete isolation."

So true!!

Awesome poem .
yiu are doing good work keep it up.

please upote my post & fallow me i did same

This inspires me to photograph something similar.

Lately i have a lot contact with poetry. The way authors are playing with the words in order to make us realize something true is just astonishing. It is common said that poems reduces stress and risk of depresion.

I love the line "Pain Seduced Sadness" Its so true that pain is in someway seductive. Its obvious when you see so many people staying in their own self induced misery that there are some aspects to the brain which crave that sensation. Makes it all the more difficult to move on and away from pain and sadness towards happiness. If anyone is thinking of hanging from the weeping willow in the park don't do it; its not the answer.

It takes a good poet to recognise good poetry.
And a humble one to acknowledge and share it. This got me though

Demons of pain and misery Plucking the gorgeous Feathers from my back Casing scarlet to streak The blackness Dripping pain onto the Filthy floor.
The writer got no chill. Oh my! This is some really good stuff. Sir Joseph thanks for sharing.

So beautiful. I hope there are readers for my poem... :(
here's my poetry

That poem definitely WAS worth sharing. Wish I saw more poetry on Steemit to be honest.

@snrm, i'll try to post one every day :)

nice one!!

i can relate to this...when u are sad and down and u are thinking the only way is to keep to yourself and recover first only to realised that you've pushed everyone away...this poem spoke to me...thnk u

descriptive and you were not afraid to speak the truth. poetry allows us to do this!

mixed feelings it brings but i love it

Macabre, Yet memorable. The gravity of these words... wow. Pain, suffering, hurt, loss, I realize, is just a place along the way. And pushing through that adversity is what makes us humans grow.

This took me to a dark place, on a ride I wished would never end. Hats off to a word magician.

she's so beautiful yet so sad always saying no one will ever love her, and yet when somebody tells her that they love her she runs and hides silly girl, they love you, you just don't love yourself.nice job on this post sir you deserve my vote and follow

what do you think about this poem @Joseph?
Could the same memories that now make me glow
be the same memories that would some day make me low?

Could the very lips that offer naught but ecstasy now
be the very lips that would play conspirators in bringing me down?

Could the very voice which is but music to mine ears
be one day no more than jarring notes that'll cause me tears?

could the tender touch which now awakens all my passions
one day wax revolting and bring upon me grave commotions?
Could the one mortal that stands as my only medication,
be someday the cause of my worst depression?

Could the very object of my insatiable affection
be one day the very weapon of my ultimate destruction?

Could the physician to my often troubled times
one day administer the lethal poison to end my dear life?

"but why?" I ask in hopeless despair,
"does love turns to monstrous despair

nicely done..love it
