🌧️ Short Phrases for Sadness
Here are some short phrases for sadness that are useful for compositions.
A heaviness in my chest
Tears I didn’t know I was holding cascaded down my cheeks
Felt a hollow ache in my chest
My spirit felt bruised and battered
A wave of despair washed over him
Grief tucked behind closed eyes, he forced a smile
Felt a lump form in my throat
Memories that sting like salt
The joy had been leeched from my soul
Words stuck in my throat
The stillness after the storm
Swallowed my grief
The hollow echo of what once was
A goodbye that never felt complete
The rain matched my mood as if it too knew
Tears welled up, blurring my vision
A lump formed in her throat, choking back sobs
Her breath hitched, a silent sob.
Her eyes blurred with tears
Her eyes mirrored with tears
Her eyes welled up with tears
Pearls of tears rolled down her cheeks
The silence was heavy, thick with unspoken grief
The rain mirrored their tears, a relentless downpour
My heart ached
The world seemed muted, colours drained away
A gray pall hung over the day
