Sadness, my old friend
You have come to greet me once again
To collect the debt that is due
My prolonged glee was becoming suspicious.

Sadness, my old friend
You have come to remind me once again
That with every high, there is a low
Yin and Yang, two and fro.

Sadness, thank you for your visit
And showing me how to be human
Your presence makes your absence all the more richer.
