Sadness
Sometimes you feel sadness like
the river never stops.
You do anything you can
to make it end,
run for as long as it takes
to forget about it. But
don’t
forget about it:
if you do it will all
be for nothing.
Sadness is the
water under your bridge, the
lake under your bed -
don’t go walking around
at night without it.
You might just
jump into a stranger’s car
and ride away with it for good.
