Ode to Sadness

It sleep within you like
a hibernating bear...
It comes out like
a new born child...
Who just awaken from it's slumber.

As it wakes up...
it felt like nobody was there
to keep it warm...
NO one to comfort me...
Why am I so lonely in this world.

The only word
to describe my feelings...
is sadness...
So lonely that
no one dare to look at me...
Am I a ghost or a child?

I am a person
who never experienced happiness...
What makes me so lonely
that no one dare to look?
I am not a creature,
monster, or a ghost.

I am a person
who wants to be love
by people with happiness...
I just want to fit in
with everybody else in this world.

the world I live in
treats me like some low life kid...
I can show you that
I am not a low life kid...
I have a heart that beats
thump...thump...thump...
everyday of my life with feelings just like you.

Sadness I felt...
lonely, despair, and depress...
No one care to help...
The sound of my sarrowness
drown within itself...
This is true sadness
that I experience...
Sadness that will never let go of me.

Sadness will only leave...
if happiness I seek is fulfill...
Happiness and love by
family, friends, and mostly...
My parents and sister that makes me whole.

I know that...
at one point in life
everyone has experienced sadness...
At least once or twice...
so why can't you accept...
Me for who I AM.
