李白has 2 famous poems about the resentment of lonely women. The one that is better written is
玉阶怨
玉阶生白露，夜久侵罗袜。
却下水晶帘，玲珑望秋月。
Literary scholars find this poem more profound in that in not mentioning any resentment at all, resentment is expressed.
However, to non-scholars, I believe the more famous poem is this one.
怨情
美人捲珠簾，深坐顰蛾眉。
但見淚痕濕，不知心恨谁。
Waiting
A lady fair rolls up a beaded curtain.
Sits lingeringly, with her fine brows knit.
The wet stains of her tears are apparent.
Against whom does she bear a resentment?
Why so? Because in the movie《方世玉》,the main lead's father 方德 recited this poem to his wife 苗翠花. Such is life, even of poems.
