Sad me is heavy,
Saturated with toxic teardrops,
Soaked and weighted down,
Falling,
Falling,
Falling to the ground
To sink into the Earth's crust
Spreading, embedding,
Becoming mud.

Sad me is a solid mass
Of rippling, crippling grief,
Lumpen iron, Raw ore
Bleeding,
Bleeding,
Leeched by circumstance,
Scarred by consequence,
Dreaming, screaming,
Remembering love.
