Sadness came to me today  And stared at me with shocked eyes  Come away with me  She said  Her lips curving around the words  As if chewing on broken dreams  Fade away into the background   Make them realize how much they've missed  Through your silence  And wish to have you back  When they realize it was their fault  Come away with me  She said  And I looked back at Sadness  The skinny arms  The glass legs  The fragile heart  Barely stuttering  With her pointed features  And tiny frame  Ready to be outcast  At the slightest whip of tongue  How her shoulders bowed!  And her mouth sagged!  And I felt a pity for her  But also a blind trust  A cocoon wrapped around my heart then  Closing it off as I leapt after her  And wondering if I was really following Revenge

Sadness Once again
Sadness came to me today  And stared at me with shocked eyes  Come away with me  She said  Her lips curving around the words  As if chewing on broken dreams  Fade away into the background   Make them realize how much they've missed  Through your silence  And wish to have you back  When they realize it was their fault  Come away with me  She said  And I looked back at Sadness  The skinny arms  The glass legs  The fragile heart  Barely stuttering  With her pointed features  And tiny frame  Ready to be outcast  At the slightest whip of tongue  How her shoulders bowed!  And her mouth sagged!  And I felt a pity for her  But also a blind trust  A cocoon wrapped around my heart then  Closing it off as I leapt after her  And wondering if I was really following Revenge
