Sad Song

This is a sad song,

A miserable tale about nothing at all;

Simple and digestible,

Without flounder otherwise inedible.

This is a sad song, 

For emotion felt during fall;

Tight and clogged,

Sadness tastes what has been fogged.

This is a sad song,

Freshly intense pain like a beaten gong;

Immense sadness encompassed,

The very next day they had passed.

This is a sad song,

From people who dream of dawn;

An awakening so bright,

Their lives are rid of fright.

This is a sad song,

Forsaken boys and girls are gone;

To the train that leads to send,

Nought but the end.
