Beautiful Sadness

We are happy because we choose to be Though it's a bit simple-minded for me. I don't desire to feel it all the time Happiness is just the half of my rhyme. Sadness is a more complex emotion Caged inside a heavy heart's perception Allowing you to divulge the unfelt To go to a place happiness can't melt. Sadness is more noble than happiness; A love announced not a sign of weakness. It takes greater strength to live and be sad Since happiness is mind's natural bod. Sadness is quite deeper than happiness Like a wilting rose in the wilderness.
