Sadness as an Entity

It's unbelievable, how easy it is for me to feel so lonesome. And it's not even just a tad bit lonely, it's a deep, clenching sadness that spreads throughout my whole body -- painful and heavy. It's a dark entity that reaches into the deepest part of my soul, and rests there, like a burdening weight. And it's cold tendrils creep slowly but steadily into my bones, latching onto all of my nerves as it goes along.

I can almost hear it's hollow laugh as it takes over me. And I sit here, helpless into submission. All I can do is close my eyes, and wait, until it passes. Or until the brightness of joy appears, and chases away the shadows of loneliness.
