People often wonder why <br />I write a lot of sad poetry <br />for when they meet me <br />I seem a happy-go-lucky guy. <br />What they don’t realize <br />is that all my friends <br />live hundreds and thousands of miles away. <br />There are no hugs at my doorway <br />or special greeting when special seasons come. <br />Only sadness adorns my face. <br />One day hopefully that will change, <br />but I will have to wait and see. <br /> <br /> <br />19-22 December 2008<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sad-poetry/
