Sometimes We're Just Sad

They say if you're sad, you're depressed.

But I wholeheartedly disagree.

Depression is different for everyone, yes.

But to me depression is an empty feeling.

Like, nothing's there, nothing matters.

Like, you don't really have a purpose, and you're just kind of floating through life.

Being sad is, in my opinion, totally different.

Sadness is a consuming feeling. A feeling that puts unbelievable pressures on your heart.

It weighs you down, and you just want to cry. Cry for yourself, and cry for the world.

It's a full feeling, the bad kind. The opposite of the warm happiness that fills you.

It's a bad full, like you've ate too much.

I guess the thing about sadness, is that it's temporary.

But there's always that feeling that it'll make a sudden reappearance.

Sometimes it's better to be empty, rather than to be full.
