Why are sad people sad?

A person they love dies 

They gave someone their  heart and it got torn to sheds

There very own thoughts drive them into madness 

Too many people walked away 

They can't let go 

They didn't hold on hope tight enough 

Or perhaps sad people are sad 

because they gave out all there happiness trying to keep someone else a float 

And now there is nothing left for them 

So now they wait 

For another foolish person 

To pour out their happiness 

So they can stop drowning 

Only to have the cycle to begin again 

So remember don't give away your happiness like spare change 

And make sure to save some for yourself 

Otherwise you'll find that while everyone else is living 

Your sitting there barely breathing 

 Because you forgot to keep yourself a little happiness
