I am not sad I missed the days when black was the only color there was. I am sad I am missing the future. I am not sad I missed the days when you were in-love. I am sad you held her hand. I am not sad I missed you as a child. I am sad I'll miss you as an old man. I am not sad she has a face. I am sad she has a face that you want. I am not sad I am not sleeping. I am sad because of the reasons I can't sleep. I am not sad to say goodbye to you. I am sad it will be so long before I say hello. I am not sad she wears cheap socks with holes the in knees. I am sad that I don't and that you like them. I am not sad that they are in-love. I am sad that he eats my cookies. I am not sad that they aren't in-love. I am sad that it keeps me from sleeping. I am not sad that he left. I am sad because I am scared everyone else will. I am not sad he doesn't understand. I am sad he doesn't try to. I am not sad you listen to your music too loud. I am sad you don't listen when I'm screaming. I am not sad I don't have her face. I am sad because I wish I did. I am not sad you asked me to grow up. I am sad you think anyone needs to. I am not sad because my make-up is running. My make-up is running because I am sad.
