When there is no reason to be sad but you feel it anyway
I'm sad
sure
I have reasons
School is backbreaking
I feel my friends are leaving
but underneath
I feel it
a sadness
that I think has no
purpose
It just lies
beneath my surface
lingering, sending up
drops of empty
an acid
that feels like
soft cotton
a plush blanket
of downward emotion
no reason
no cause
just
because
it can
