The Power Of Sadness©

The Power Of Sadness©

by Felina Silver Robinson

If you could count my tears

You would know the sadness that plagues me

I give my best to all that need me

But still sadness lurks by my side

I wear my smile cheek to cheek each day

With a spring in my step

And

Laughter in my voice

Sometimes I even break out in song

So now even I wonder

Why sadness has become my invisible new friend

I hold onto to hope that someone will soon come along

And

Snap me out of the this dreary old fog

Because I just can’t seem to fathom

That I’m meant to be in this pattern

For the rest of my days

I truly don’t wish to remain in a haze

Do you have the power to save me?
