I am sad.
I don’t know why.
There may not be a why.

That is sad:
Being sad
Without a reason.

If there was a reason,
I could be sad
And I’d be sad
But that wouldn’t be sad.

Someone says
“That’s just sad.”

No.

Being sad
Because your dog died
Isn’t sad.

Being sad
Because your last cupcake fell on the floor
Isn’t sad.

Being sad
Because you’re sad
Isn’t just sad.
It’s sad extra.

I’d like it if I wasn’t sad at all.
I also don’t really want a good reason to be sad.

It’s a sad, sad situation.
And that, to me, is truly sad.
