Sorrowful Poems Novels & Stories

Sorrow permeated into the air as if breathing alone was a bitter feat. His long eyelashes fluttered ever so slightly. The world outside was completely dark, with only a few dim street lamps to illuminate it. It must have been just as dark as this when she left that night.

Damon felt as if he could hear his heart break, like the sound of a diamond cutting through paper, softly reverberating in his chest.

"Colleen, it was our fault! Please come back and save Adrian. He tried to jump into the river while we weren't looking. He can't survive without you!" I was eating fruit Caleb had cut for me, watching the videos and apologies like they were a joke. Netizens commented disdainfully. "It's too late for regrets." Honestly, those were my exact thoughts. They didn't cherish what they had when it was theirs, so who exactly were they putting on this performance for now?

“I feel everything, you hurt, I hurt worse, who wants to fight me.” Caiden steps forward. “I’ll—” “No,” I say. “He’s a child.” “I’m Father’s grief,” Sorrow says. “I was born when Mother cried, I end when everyone else does.” He touches the ground. Every wolf in the circle gasps. Their grief, all of it, mothers, mates, lost years, hits at once. Draven drops to one knee. Mercy screams. I fall, memories of the witch pit, of my brother dying, of selling myself at 18.

The news pierces through her like a dagger, opening floodgates of overwhelming emotions she struggles to contain. Grief and helplessness wash over her in relentless waves, as she grapples with the weight of her situation. Her human fragility is stark against the backdrop of a supernatural realm she never imagined she would be part of. The sense of sadness claws at her heart, intertwining with a profound sense of loss resonating deep within her very core.

Li-lah's cries intensified, her tears flowing freely as the weight of the loss pressed down upon her, threatening to crush her spirit. She crumbled to the ground, her entire body quaking with grief. The sheer magnitude of her sorrow sent shockwaves through her being, leaving her feeling raw and vulnerable. Words failed to adequately convey her pain as she sobbed uncontrollably, the sound escaping her in ragged gasps.

Deep, alive, drowning. I’d miss looking at those eyes. I couldn’t help the cry that left my throat. It was a guttural, soul-wrenching wail—raw and unrestrained—as if the grief itself clawed its way out of my chest. It wasn't just a sound of sorrow; it was the kind of cry that tore through silence like a storm, born from the unbearable weight of watching the man I loved fade away. It held all the shattered dreams, the aching what-ifs, and the terrifying reality of facing a future without him.

I remembered our laughter, our tears, our moments of triumph and defeat. The memories swirled around me, a bittersweet reminder of what I had lost. I felt like I was drowning in grief, unable to escape the crushing weight of my sorrow.

As the weight of my sorrow becomes too much to bear, I find myself sinking to my knees, my head bowed in defeat. The dam that had been holding back my tears finally crumbles, and a torrential wave of anguish escapes from within me. “I’m sorry…” I whimper, feeling every emotion gnawing at Lilys’ heart. It’s heavy with a certain darkness that could make the devil himself pleased with.

When I absently brushed it away, it crumbled into brittle fragments, a poignant metaphor for the way things often seemed to go – a moment of beauty given only to be inevitably broken. The tears came again, slower this time, heavier with a quiet grief that settled deep in my bones. No violent sobs, just the silent, steady trickle of sorrow. “I’m sorry,” I whispered into the darkening sky, the apology a vague offering to the universe. I didn’t even know who I was truly apologizing to.

I continued to lean by his side, witnessing his pain, unable to bear his sorrow alone. The room seemed to grow heavy with the weight of our grief, the air thick with the remnants of unspoken words. David's anguish was palpable, his sorrow etched deep within his being. I wrapped my arms around him in a comforting embrace. His body convulsed with each sob, his pain reverberating through me.
