The Saddest Song I KnowA Poem by Harrison SherifWhen people come up and ask me Whats the saddest song you know? Sit down I said I will tell you the saddest song I know The saddest song I know has no lyrics Its melody is the sadness that is told The same melody over and over again But a different story is told The saddest song I know is simple Simple but powerful In its execution you can feel the power And feel the sadness in your heart become full The saddest song I know is soft Its light tones are pleasing to the ear Its a soft that is chilling to the body And one that brings out a tear The saddest song I know is selective Not everyone can hear its sorrow Only a select few can And they can relate to the sorrow The saddest song I know combines these element A simple, soft and powerful melody that clashes So pleasing to the ear It can be compared to floating Ashes The saddest song I know Is the one that only I can understand People say they can But no one but me can truly understand © 2015 Harrison SherifAuthor's Note
