She's lost In A Sea Of Poetry

I Shouldn't Be Chasing Sadness

It seemed i chased sadness.

I loved the things that made me sad.

Like sad poetry,quotes,lyrics,anything that took me back to you.

You.

The number one thing i loved that made me sad was You.

You were once my happiness,how did that change?

I used to chase memories,dreams and hopes.

Sometimes I'm still convinced that's what am chasing

But in the end it turns out that i am only chasing broken things ,hoping that they'd fix a broken thing.

A broken person,a broken you or a broken me.

It seems i like to chase those things,the things that bring me sadness.

And if i try to run from them,they still find me.

And we both know what i really should be chasing here,is butterflies,

Actual butterflies,not the kind you get in your stomach but actual butterflies.

I should be chasing butterflies,dreams and paradise.

I should be chasing lovely,exciting,and happy things.

Things that bring me joy,not sadness.

I shouldn't be chasing the things that bring me sadness,

Should i?

I wouldn't think so.

So then why is it that i am?
