If sadness had a smell <br />It would be flowers <br />Too many white roses fell <br />Upon the site of an early grave <br /> <br />If sadness had a color <br />It would be black <br />Close your eyes to see it <br />Regain your postrure you seem to lack <br /> <br />If sadness had a sound <br />It would be a heartbeat <br />Pounding in your head alone <br />Before his body loses heat <br /> <br />If sadness had a touch <br />It would be cool, sleek steel <br />Sliding across your skin <br />The pain of sadness, you'd feel <br /> <br />But sadness does have a taste <br />A tear on your lip <br />Knowing it's not your last <br />There are many more to come<br /><br />Cassia Palsgrove<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-sadness-were-more-than-an-emotion/
