Sadness Is...

Sadness is black Saturday.
Gloomy days with no sun shine.
Moving schools with so many friends.
Holding a dead relatives hand.
Thousands of people die in car crashes every year.
Quickly losing animals in the wild.
Keeping the spirit up for cancer and then it goes down hill.
Being in hospital and missing your son’s graduation.
Losing your dad from a horrible brain tumour...like my friend.
