Sadness comes and goes

Sometimes I get sad

my heart becomes too slow

too dumb

to catch up

with the rhythms

of the loud noises

outside my door

in the street

in my mind

in the chest

where you are.

Sadness comes sometimes
we all hide behind mom
trying to figure out
how to lose
and let go 
treasures 
pieces
crumbs of deep love
so much love.

All the blue is mine

it's not your fault 

nor is it mine

I should learn how to cry

without pouring my soul out 

I should have known by now

sadness gets me sometimes.
