Sadder

Sadder

some people are sadder
just tearful
some people are different colours
just different
some people are affected
just feel too much
just so sensitive 
to life’s often strange touch
some people laugh
but never really laugh it off
for some, even a soulmate
would never prove enough
some are sadder
it is not that they do not see the big picture
or its beautiful frame
it is that they do see it
and all its pain
some people are sadder
that is their grain
