The Joy of Sadness

The Joy of Sadness 

No sunshine
dark clouds have come
and hidden the sun

The sky is crying
rain drops come together
on glass
each has an amount of sorrow
a capacity for being sad

I have this capacity
so alive now
the sad music sound
melody of rain drops
clicking on glass

Maybe I wanna feel
the joy of sadness
and live the sad melody
in all my core

I don't wanna ask
who, when or why questions
remember all unnecessary memories
or cry

I'm longing to feel
the joy of sadness
bring me
all the dark clouds
I wanna be sad
