Wrong or Right?

Is it wrong to be sad?

you question like it's bad.

But is there a wrong and right,

to feelings that keep you up at night?

 

Am I wrong for what I feel?

feelings can be a big deal.

Cause' is it wrong or right,

for you to say my feelings are not right?

 

Do you not feel what I feel?

of course not, you feel what you feel.

So tell me how you know what's wrong and right,

when you only think within your sight?

 

Do you know what it's like?

to say it to my face as you like.

Tell me how that's not wrong but right,

telling my life is wrong- as so you lied.

 

Are you aware of the truth?

I mean the absolute truth.

Your wish is to know what's wrong- and- 

it's that your words made me sad all along.

 

You label people for what they feel?

you're just a cynic in human steel.

Depressed or angry, happy or not,

we are just hurt and human-

                                 searching for love that was not.

Feelings are complex. It's not something you can explain, but at the same time it means more than words could ever say.
