Poetry can be written to lament. "Laments include as part of their form an invocation and plea to God, a complaint, a request or petition, and a statement of God's response. Lament refers to sorrow or grief, hence telling us something about the content of this genre." (Cracking Old Testament Codes by D. Sandy and R. Giese, Jr.)
