Sadness you say?

with each day it grows- hiding in the shadows- waiting for the sun to sleep.

Gripping with hands unseen- swimming through the very depths of our fragile consciousness.

We drown in it- we die in it- and yet- from it, stems the very strength we needed all along.

If God so loved the world, then all would be swell-

and yet, the very moment I fell-

you were there, my Heaven in this world called hell
