Sorrow is Beautiful
Sorrow is beautiful.
Sorrow is the result of the most final occurrence.
Sorrow is what makes my eyes shine and my skin pale.
My cheeks redden and I lose my appetite.
The result of the most final occurrence is also the reason my tear-streaked face looks so pretty.
Sorrow is beautiful while happiness is ugly.
When I am happy I smile ear to ear with my crooked teeth and sticky saliva.
I feel like going into the sunlight and making my pale skin brown and dotted.
When I am happy I am ugly to the well treated and beautiful to the sorrowful- for only the sorrow of being in a bad place can make you truly appreciate the beauty of happiness.
Sorrow is beautiful.
