Sad

I have walked through

The cold waters of sadness

I have walked through

The hot waters of anger

The cold, blue tears

Make feel alone,

Trapped in my room

Maybe no one loves me,

The hot, red face

Makes me want to fight

Hitting the walls

Kicking in doors

Never makes me feel better

Love can feel like Goosebumps,

A warm blanket.

Me running on the beach.

Feels like your getting nervous

Nervous like butterflies

Flying in your stomach,

Hands getting sweaty

And your grinding your teeth.

Love overcomes sadness

It makes me feel

Like a better person.
