Sadness is a dark grey like a cloud on a rainy day.

It tastes like tears dripping down someone's face.

It smells like the musty air on a cold day. 

It looks like betrayal and horror.

Sadness is like your door creaking slowly.

It feels like a million people trying to help you but they all just want to betray you instead. 

Sadness will always be there waiting for you but it's not about how much sadness you have or don't have, it’s about how you choose to overcome it.
