I’m overwhelmed by sadness
Tugging at my heart.
My eyes are full of unshed tears
I fear they soon will start.

To roll along my cheeks
Even though I’m not sure why?
I’m filled with such an emptiness
And fear I soon will cry.

It really makes no sense
The bleakness and the pain,
Perhaps it’s really nothing.
Or else, I’ve gone insane.

Very excellent poem, and I took it of depression, as that is what causes what you wrote of.

Very strongly written poem of sadness.  I bet you can write as effectively with happiness.  Fine job.  Roger

sometimes these feelings just take hold, don't they

I wonder if maybe we're being called to prayer for someone rather than just finding a release of some unknown pressure...or maybe both, whatd'ya think?

Well I don't think you're insane I just think you have a soft heart and have written a tribute to it!

Insanity is accompinied by a cold heart my friend, something you obviously do not posses with all those feelings  

Strive for higher levels, if they seem out of reach... Grow, and they will get closer.
