• Saddness

    Black as night
    yet as pale and sharp as white
    Ugly and hurtful
    yet beautiful and cleansing

    It can come as a wave
    crashing over you and dragging you under
    or a small stream
    slowly winding its way out

    It can sepparate you from all
    yet tie you to many
    It can push away those you love most
    yet pull them even closer

    Saddness

    Pain and numbness
    in one
