SAD

I'm sad. I know why, but thinking about it makes me want to cry. I will take this sadness wherever I go. No one can see it. It's not visible to the naked eye, but it exists nevertheless.

I wish you could see me as I am, full of passion, life, joy,and victory. But as these exist, so do my pain full of tears, misery, and rain. Full of desperation, full of wanting, full of yearning.

I wish you could see and feel my burning, inflamed, and bright, sometimes so full of light spirit. I wish you could see my despair. I wish you could see that my smile hides a lot of cares that wears me down and lessens my joy


I AM A CONFLICT OF NATURE.

JOY AND LIGHT, PAIN AND DARK.


ALL THESE THINGS EXIST IN MY HEART.

Thanks for the encouragement. I appreciate it.

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
