The Only Reason For Being Sad

The only reason for being sad is holding on what is worthless, another reason is selfishness; joy is empty when one is bored. Somebody should notice how strangely you act, putting your feelings first, getting all the praise; and showing no love for me, you take the sweetness out of each of each memory bringing rain and unhappiness. The only reason for being sad is revealing the selfish person that you are, not caring if words hurt and make you feel good when they should cause you pain if they were actual thorns. The only reason for being sad comes from your silliness... that I owe you everything even the anger you're feeling; woman, no selfish heart can be if it doesn't share all the joys that the other feels and would share with this lover who is me.
