Sadness

Sadness is always a teacher

But you gotta pay attention

Or else you'll miss the lesson

There's always a good reason

When she comes to embrace you

You are given pain and sorrow

And you gotta deal with it

It's a way not to let important things

Come and fade unnoticed

Sadness shows you the ache

So you can fight for the relief

She sometimes breaks your heart

Deep inside because there is the place

Where your feelings are hidden

And she brings them back again

She is a reminder

When all you want is to forget

She's a sign

To show you still care

But, as often happens,

The students hardly recognize

The importance of the lessons

Only after a long time...
