Sadness is the burden of being happy

by Jennie   Nov 18, 2004


When least
I felt the pain,
something came
running on it's feet...
beyond the mind's
comprehension,
I could not believe it...
I could have taken it
as something
that would make me
unhappy for a day,
but it held me
to a day of thought
a day of tears.
Who would of thought
that something
so precious would be
taken away further
from the arms
of someone
who truly loved it.
No one knows what my face
shows tommorow
because
when I keep it inside,
I know exactly
that feeling that one must
feel when hearing
about this...
this calamity.
When someone
who doesn't care hears
my tears,
they destroy my want
to tell anyone...
let my legs collapse,
let my tears make
a sea that
will never wane.

*Russell Sage...what ever happened? I thought i'd have you forever in my memory, as the bright home I could always reach out for in comfort...but now that you are almost gone, I do not have much hope anymore. I cry...I cry for everything I have learned, everything I have created, everything I have grown through you. Sage, please...please change. Please stay the way you were before.*
