Sadness doesn’t care if you made it to the top.
It doesn’t remember the award you won last year,
or the shows that were watched by millions.
It doesn’t know about dress royalty wore,
and miles your shoes walked.
It ignores every dish that told a story,
and every bag that traveled around the world.
It laughs in the face of the memories created,
and not once thinks about tomorrow.
It pushes aside Happiness, befriends Anger,
and comes in like a storm.
But Sadness is never at fault.
Because Sadness can’t help the way she feels.
And truth be told,
No one cares about Sadness.
-MyDreamIsAStory
I worte this poem in light of what happened this week to two amazing icons in the fashion and food industry. Sadness doesn’t discriminate. It’s doesn’t care who you are. If you or anyone you know is struggling, please find help and cling on to the hope that tomorrow will come.
