Sadness, you are a little girl who has dropped her ice cream cone.
Sadness, you are a teenage break-up.
Sadness, you are a funeral.

Sadness, you are a girl crying on her bed.
Sadness, you are a boy with a tear in his eye.
Sadness, you are a woman weeping.

Sadness, you are a bag of grapes.
Sadness, you are a cup of black coffee.
Sadness, you are no food at all.

Sadness, you are a dark night.
Sadness, you are a rainy day.
Sadness, you are the cruelest of our emotions.

Sadness, you are a metaphor in yourself.
