what sadness brings

she was blue.

sad.
always sad

to some degree.
her face
tilted

and frowned, leaning
on the sill.

waiting for something
or someone
to arrive

that would take the sadness
away.

some to fill the void,
someone
who would provide.

this led to  trouble.
her life

being led
down wayward trails,

led astray.
there was no truth.

just lies.
