The dead must have pity us
Laugh right in front of our crying faces
Because they know a secret we don't
That's it's better to be dead than alive

Would you still bother to read my poems
Even if I tell you it only sings of heartaches and sad songs

I used to run away from it
*But now I've learned to walk with sadness
I was inspired by Disney Pixar's Inside Out. I love being sad.

Stop trying to cheer me up
Nor reminding me of people who care
Cause you know what?
I'm sick of deceits
And false pretense
Of hearing the same ***** over and over again
Every day I see myself in the mirror
Seeing the same old person
But entirely different
As I was before
Because I know it's not fine
Everything’s not going to be alright
And let me tell you friend,
That the best way to comfort a sad soul
Is through sadness itself
That no matter how many tries to fix us
We'll always be permanently damaged

Let’s talk about the stars
And how grey they turn out to be when you smile
Let’s talk about the sun
That lacks radiance and gleam compared to yours
Let’s talk about all the things
That loses its beauty whenever you’re near
Now let’s talk about her
And all her imperfections, failure, and flaws
The way she adores the night
And all the blackness that it emanate
The way she cradle these demons
Miserably trapped inside her mind
Because she’s anxious she’ll be ogled
When she tell the world of it
The way she takes relief in loneliness
Because that’s the only certain entity in this realm
The way she says
“I’m okay”
Because that’s the easiest answer
While resenting alone all the pain

Why
Of course, I am never alone
But why do I feel otherwise?
Lily Oct 2015
Let's talk about the stars
And how dull they turn out to be when you smile
