Dear Sadness,
Dear Sadness,
you,
without words,
without answers,
within me
for dear life.
To toil,
to turn,
to twist
my inner most being.
One day,
I will come to you
and force you
to give back all that you have taken!
I will make you drown in the tears you have caused.
I will make you forfeit reason to fight.
I will not answer you.
I will leave you.
I will make you empty!

Thank you Martin. I appreciate you taking the time to comment on my poem and I'm glad that you found it to be about determination, rather than futility.
