How Sad True Sadness

There was a sadness I revered,
But never possessed,
Because there was youth
And hope to spare,

But as youth ebbs,
And hope recedes,
I know that sadness for real,
And how sad true sadness feels.

'And If My Soul is Crying' was penned during an episode of almost unbearable abyssal sadness that took place some time in 2015. 'How Sad True Sadness' possibly dates from the same tristful period that produced 'And If My Soul is Crying'.
