In the depths of sorrow's shade,

Where tears like rivers cascade,

A melancholy melody unfurls,

Aching whispers to the weeping world.

Gone are the days of vibrant light,

Replaced by shadows, cold and blight,

A heavy weight upon the chest,

Sadness grips, refusing rest.

Memories, like ghosts, haunt the mind,

Leaving fragments of what's left behind,

A tapestry of moments torn,

Lost in time, forever mourned.

Each tear that falls, a silent plea,

To heal the wounds, to set me free,

But sadness lingers, an unwelcome guest,

Clutching my heart, an eternal quest.

In solitude, I seek solace's embrace,

Yearning for a fleeting trace,

Of happiness, once felt so near,

Now buried deep, obscured by fear.

Yet, in the sadness, a truth does lie,

A gentle reminder, as days pass by,

That even in darkness, a spark remains,

A glimmer of hope that still sustains.

For through the tears and mournful song,

Strength emerges, resilient and strong,

In the depths of sadness, seeds are sown,

To bloom anew when sorrow's flown.

So let the tears flow freely, my friend,

For in sadness, hearts learn to mend,

And from the ashes, a phoenix will rise,

Embracing scars as a precious prize.
