Who would I be?


Sorrow. Despair. Grief.

We’ve got so many synonyms for sadness.

People often ask me, why am I like this?

Why am I so quiet, so melancholic?

I just smile and walk away.

Y’all don’t understand it, do you?

Happiness is a part of life, but so is sadness.

Come, take away the melancholia from me.

Ever wondered, then who would I be?

Imagine, taking away all the water from the sea.

Do you get it now?

That’s what makes me, me.

Melancholy brings me glee.
