Some people are born sad

I do not know what it is that makes me sad.
I do not know why this intoxicating
scent of sorrow
fills my lungs
with every breath I take.
I cannot blame anyone for the
unconfined
profound
dark loneliness
that enveloped me in a thin purpureus veil
a long time ago
and created a universe for me alone
where I am both the king and the servant,
the victim and the abuser.
I think some people are just born sad.

So true. Some people I think do have a predisposition to be in a state of depression or sadness. It's very easy to fall into that state for me. I have to fight it all of the time. I have to do things to motivate myself because If I just leave it alone it only gets worse. Thanks for sharing friend

Very touching and real piece here. Very good work, I have to say that I've felt this way for a very long time as well. Very nice job of hitting the core of a very abstract and revealing human condition.

Thank you so much, I had never shared my poems before and it means a lot that someone thinks they're good! I am sorry you can relate to those words though,
