Sadness

Sadness follows me everywhere Everywhere I go I wish I knew just how to shake What makes me feel so low My soul feels empty and alone Without my knowing why If only I could smile and laugh Instead of frown and cry Sleep alludes me once again My mind awash with broken dreams tortured by what might still be, my pain so real but never seen How I got here, no one knows Please help me find a way A way to for me to at last be free From all this pain and misery.
