Curdling Milk Borderline Cheesecake

In the end come to think of it

What's the point of feeling sad

Sad just does what sad does

No point on dwelling on it

It won't go away and will still be
laying in state ready to unwelcome
you when you eventually go to bed

Clinging to your pillow stopping
you from counting sheep

Sad is a sickness fuelled by regret

And when all is said and done
and you break it down 

It's as pointless as crying over
out of date curdling spilt milk 

It's of little use anyway

One thing Christopher sadness can come from grief which in turn comes from love, It’s impossible not to grieve who you truly love when they pass, The only way to forego it is not to love, but that in itself is sad, cheers David
