Favorite Quote:
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me -Philippians 4:13


Sadness is almost like a drug.

It takes and steals and rips and mugs.

It takes something sweet, like a nice, warm hug

And rips it away with one big tug.


The author's comments:

I thought of this poem as I was falling asleep. The words attempt to describe the feeling of sadness and grief.
