Sadness comes.
It swoops down.
Its beady eyes focus,
Seeing a prey,
It lunges.

My poor soul.
Battered by life
And its unrelenting blows.
Vulnerable.

Sadness comes.
It tears the happiness,
Piece by piece
From my very bones.

Pain.
Sadness left me empty.
A gaping hole
Where my heart used to be.

Flying.
Sadness left,
Stole my happiness.
Ate it all.
