Poems about rejection

1. NO BUSINESS HERE

princes and paupers

reapers and hawkers

all come out at night and see

their feeble frame’s humanity

for ‘ere they lay on sheets of satin

sackcloth hay or wooden slatting

their spirits floated free in space

no torso arms legs or face

but now they are bound

in one place to be found

daily fettered to flesh and bone

not seeing together they are alone

alone at the mercy of their twisted minds

wherein passion anxiety and fear they wind

a macabre sequence of painful events

and not till death do they repent

life is not life nor death the end

reality is pretense the mind it bends

with rules and logic of its own creation

from family units to all the nations

alas soon ‘twill all be over

the present gone and spirits sober

we all will “fly” beyond the stratosphere

for we really have no business here

2. HER REGRET

now she begins her

new life

on the financial gains

from her departed former mate

but alas

it dawns on her

doubting mental faculties

that in spite of all

the money

and the plastic fun

life is not the same

not quite complete

without him

Understanding Rejection

At its core, rejection involves the exclusion, denial, or dismissal of one’s desires, efforts, or affections by others. It can evoke feelings of hurt, disappointment, self-doubt, and sadness, impacting an individual’s self-esteem and overall well-being.
