To Sadness,

To Sadness,

A Story by gypsy scribbler

Dear Sadness,


Sorry, I suppose I am being ungrateful. I am all upset and whiny and craving attention, and here you are - practically chasing me. And what am I doing? Ignoring and avoiding you. Instead of appreciating your company and just being with you for a while. Do you have something to tell me? Something that would change my life? Or something funny? Or more likely sad? 


Hey, why does it have to be about me? Do you simply want to be acknowledged and loved? I guess we all do.

'Do you simply want to be acknowledged and loved? I guess we all do.'

This seems to be someone looking into space, staring into a shadow, wishing it was who it should be.. then, needing to make contact. Your words are placed very naturally, honestly. Rather a conversation between reality and imponderability.

Aloha gypsy, a very emotional piece. Sad and knowing. Your final lines are very good. Izzy
