Sadness

Sadness swirls all over my soul Trapping me in its net Trapping me and causing me to sweat Sadness blooms all over me Causing me to wilt, to be drained of my energy Causing me to sit and remember of it Of how, once, I thought I would never know it Of how, once, I thought it could never touch me! But life plays the way it deems right Caring not about our wants About our tantrums About our yearnings Life just goes on its way And gives us, quite coldly That as much as we do deserve! Even if, in the process, we are to remain Overwhelmed by the sinews of sadness! Yet, of sadness have I made mine own strength Sadness now gets released in my words Sadness, a tool which can strike me to joy When I make of it, my poetic toy Sadness, beckoning me to sail the world over All for the sake of satisfying it Satisfying it and succumbing to it For only by accepting it Shall I open my soul to the real side of existence!
