SADNESS

Suddenly the mad lad broke the vase

And also came tumbling down my hope

During the war this was my saving grace

Nate! Was it you or was it a mystery strobe

Engulfing me now is the misery at a consuming pace

Sorrow has embraced me now, oh so bad!

Sympathy is a warrior, bigger than vase making me sad.
