Sadness
Sadness has come to play.
It's hard to get it to go away.
So easy to just sit and cry all day.
So much sadness is here to stay.
I've tried so hard to make it stop.
It just won't go away no matter what.
I tried drinking until I could not see.
Doing drugs to block it from my memory.
Drinking worked for a little while.
Often giving me a fake smile.
Drugs worked better than the drink.
Even changed the way I think.
When drugs stopped working so well.
The voices inside began to yell.
Telling me to run away GO!
Just run away and don't tell a soul.
So I jump at a chance to be free.
A rare chance to not be be.
