Sadness

Sometimes sadness just crawls into your mind

Sometimes it likes to make a nest there, out of pillows and blankets

It makes your head fuzzy

Sometimes it likes to veg out and binge watch Netflix

Sometimes it gets real cozy
Sometimes people see you as lazy

But sometimes you know, it gets tiring carrying around this needy weight

Sometimes it drains you before you've even awoken for the next day

Sometimes you feel all too breathless without ever even having inhaled

Sometimes it drowns you and floods over into your every move

Sometimes you don't even realize that it's been saying just one more episode for the past couple of months, years even.

Sometimes you forget it's there, it puts on headphones and the noise you heard is canceled out, for now.

Sometimes you feel sad

Sometimes.
