When I Feel Sad
By Arlene Levin

Cold and unforgiving
My mind is cluttered.
I walk in an endless circle.
Darkness clouds my eyes.
I see no way out.
My body weakens.
I hear the tunes of past sadness.
Held in the moment
One sadness recalls the others.
The empty feeling of helplessness is trapped.
The door is closed.
No escape.
Caught and caged in the present I stand alone.
Just one tear slides down my flushed cheek
Meeting a smile-less expression lost in time.
