Sadness returns

a feeling some may be able to relate too.

Like a forgotten about character 

in a crap but easy to watch TV show

Like a Monday morning after a restless Sunday nights sleep. 

Like a bad smell you thought you had scrubbed away, you leave the flat and return; it smacks you in the face. You don't even care anymore. You are too tired to try and get rid of it again. 

Sadness like when the party is over, the party that you danced, laughed and made plans and promises with strangers. Returning home alone with nothing but an aching feeling of shame. 

Sadness returns.....

Like the spot on your chin you had spent so much time touching, staring at, applying overly expensive treatments to try and clear up thinking if you had a blemish free face it might make you happy. It doesn't. 

Sadness like a sequel to your most cherished book, just to realise it was a rushed money making opportunity for the author. They have killed your favourite author along with your love for the first novel. 

Early January

The dark misty mornings after the exciting festivities. The hope of a new year; you have broken your resolutions and broke your own heart. 

Sadness returns. It was never really gone. We weigh ourselves down with distractions but sadness always weighs back in.
