Sadness is a hollow thing
It's all consuming
It takes no prisoners and  leaves destruction in its wake
It's a deep ache in your mind soul and body
Something that never goes away and is always present
It stays with you at all times
After all it is the only one who does stay
Eventually the ache turns into a pain
It hurts you in the places no one sees
It stays in your heart
It stays with you until the end
Until the trigger is pulled and the rope is drawn
Only then when the last breath leaves your body will it ever leave you
Sadness is something you can count on to always be there
When you're ready to leave this Earth and travel to the next, It’ll be beside you
It will leave an imprint on your soul, mind, and body
Society likes to think we’re over dramatic
because they can’t see the pain inflicted
They can't see the battles we waged and the wars we lost
But I mean it's all in your head right?
