Array ( [sid] => 49278 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Melancholy True [time] => 2004-05-27 00:25:06 [hometext] => *** I was reading/chatting about sad poetry... and got to thinking that most people aren't willing to let themselves REALLY feel blue and... even if they are, most are brave enough to tell you. (holderofthestone... Thanks for the inspiration!) *** [bodytext] =>
So many things make so many so sad
So many people feeling so bad
They say they are aching
They say that they hurt
But do they really know
And could they really show
The feeling to you
If they were
Melancholy true?

So many days made so blue so dim
So many faces looking so grim
They say someone did fail
They say they often wail
I doubt if they really know
Question if they would show
The feeling to you
If they were
Melancholy true?

So many feelings made so taut so stiff
So many cries altered to sniffs
They are stifled and fake
Their pain barely an ache
I think if they really know
They would not let show
The feeling to you
If they were
Melancholy true.

I know
It must be so
For I am -
Melancholy true
And I won’t
Tell you.

Nice write. Its mostly true what really makes us sad and its not just the things we do. Sadness is a veil so easialy lifted . I found by putting it down on paper and throwing it away like trash and Thats all I have to say. I like your choice of descriptive words simple and unresistricted every one feels those parts.

Aw, yes, sad but I think you have at least let on in the other poetry you wrote during this time.

*salutes and applauds inspiration*

You truly are inspired and inspirational.

Sad yet written so beautifully.

Thank you,

Timber
