Analysis of The Saddened Truth
It seems to be that good is a cancer, and that bad is healthy
A leaf upon a tree in Autumn's air just drifting away
Never mind to concern yourselves with my mental state
Just treat me like the rest
A dead possum's corpse on the side of a busy highway
Most would say I'm seeking sympathy
How ironic being that I'm one of the most humble and compassionate persons a saddened heart could ever reach
My name is like mud awaiting a welcome rug to be stomped on and smeared
Will I die a legendary saint or just a bald poet with a beard..
The saddened truth brings cheer to me within
A complicated explanation that's too weird

About this poem
Expressing my inner self to the public actually keeps me being trapped in low vibrational energy, so I wrote "The Saddened Truth".
