This is a poem I wrote while I was at work. I haven't edited it and I haven't really looked at it since it was created, so if it's off, blame me. I don't care.
Unhappiness
Unhappiness
Is not just an emotion
It is a thing
A cloud looming over you
Shadowing all the good things
Throwing into sharp relief
All the bad things
It is no one thing
No tangible or physical being
But a burden
A weight
That holds you down
So you forget how to fly

Seems like I've been there, many times...
A weight that holds you down... now that is a very real line.
Your unedited poem, is very sad, it shows the core of unhappiness.
I hope there is a squeal that unveils a gut wrenching persistence that can shake off the unhappiness.
Sorry I'm a sucker for happy endings.
I'm glad you guys like it.
