I am saddened yet happy.
I hear demons wail,
I see monsters under the bed,
but
I want to rid the monsters in my head.

I am saddened yet happy.
I pretend to smile when things go wrong,
I feel like a kid in a fake, sad song.

I touch the rain, in hopes to see the sky.
I worry about my pain, I don’t want to die.

I cry when people leave, only fond memories in my head.

I am saddened yet happy.
I understand there’s no cure.
I say “go for everything”..
even if you’re not sure.

I dream of a life, something better to do.
I try to fix myself to benefit me and you.
I hope one day it leaves, the sadness that I feel.

I am saddened yet happy
(and that’s just my deal.)
