The world of sadness is beautiful
But I am afraid
The sky above is like
The dress of a mourning queen,
black satin with diamonds
And when it rains,
It rains the tears of my troubles,
And all of the plants are vines,
wrapping around my feet to slow me down.
It is full of ghosts-
The ghosts of my past,
who try to bring me down.
But if I stay
In the world of my dreams,
I don't need to come back again

you know where the world of sadness is

Take it from a ghost reality is sweeter and more terrible than dreams could ever be

The very deep did rot: O Christ!
That ever this should be!
Yea, slimy things did crawl with legs
Upon the slimy sea.

Your world of sadness seems so real. You expressed it rather eloquently.

Sending you a warm hug
