if sadness is

a charming smile which leaves you breathless
a zephyr that tugs at your brown locks in soft beauty
a temporal love which is threaded in your broken heart
like you both were the only souls in the light years of the
universe

if that is sadness

then my understanding for the hollowness in people
soaked in suffocating loneliness drowning me in crowds
hurts as much as i feel numbly misunderstood
yet i tear my threads apart in an attempt to say
my love will fill the oceans infinitely
even if it is tinted crimson from being
rubbed away like a smudge on a window
fading off
over
time
