I adore sadness
It visits without a reason
It yearns to stay
but I fear to drown to poison
I said go away, on sombody's mind
I’m tired, I want to be happy
It uttered “no”, joy will not come
But if it does, it will eventually leave me
Did not listen
will only heighten desolation
I miss happiness and the old me
Now I’m trapped in isolation
Love came down and rescued me
It embraced me and set me free
It unchained me from melancholy
and released me from the arms of misery
It calmed my seas from raging
It saved me from drowning
It stopped the storm from roaring
Without it, I’d be forever missing
It wiped tears from my eyes
I didn’t speak a word or two
It embraced me tightly and
Yes indeed, a simple hug will do
