The fading of sadness

Sadness, you rarely feel it coming, always appearing when you least expect it. How I wish I could have left it so far behind; I thought for sure it was gone, but it only took years to find its way back. How I wish it was on a different track; a track I wasn't on. A track that would bring me no harm with its enticing charm. Sadness, oh how I wish it'd fly away; fly so far away I'd never feel when it comes near. I can breathe again. The sadness I once feared is gone. I can feel again. I can feel the joy running through my veins. I can feel the warm peace calm my soul once again. Sadness, oh how I love that its gone.
