Beautiful Sadness
We are happy because we choose to be
Though it's a bit simple-minded for me.
I don't desire to feel it all the time
Happiness is just the half of my rhyme.
Sadness is a more complex emotion
Caged inside a heavy heart's perception
Allowing you to divulge the unfelt
To go to a place happiness can't melt.
Sadness is more noble than happiness;
A love announced not a sign of weakness.
It takes greater strength to live and be sad
Since happiness is mind's natural bod.
Sadness is quite deeper than happiness
Like a wilting rose in the wilderness.
