Sarah Full Of Sadness (Song) Poem by Mark Heathcote

Sarah is full of sadness
Sarah, Sarah what happened to your happiness
Sarah your all misery and tears
Yet, the dam you've built is just a bit of that, yolk
Sarah, Sarah I want to drown in your tears
Drown and call it my masterstroke!

Sarah is melancholic
Sarah, Sarah said her mother was an alcoholic
Sarah said her father was a methadone heroin addict
Yet, she and her brother, made out just fine!
Sarah, Sarah liked picking bunches of purple columbine
Every bloom to her looked shambolic and vitriolic.

Sarah continuously smiled or frowned
Sarah, Sarah often cried, making herself ill housebound
Sarah often said I'm so happy I could die
Yet, I loved to see her smile, then only to turn away
Sarah, Sarah even stars in the sky sometimes must mystify
If only to look back or forwards my way.

Sarah onetime kissed me and ran away
Sarah, Sarah my hearts displaced like a broken vertebrae
Sarah my body's in traction with every word you say, unsubstantial.
Yet, every nerve in my body surrenders heavenly
Sarah, Sarah my optic nerves light a candle
Oh, lights a candle for thee, Sarah, for thee, for thee Sarah, heavenly.

Sarah full of sadness
Sarah, Sarah what happened to your happiness
Sarah, you carry my soul
Yet, if I could I'd still physically hold you
Sarah, Sarah yet if I could cajole you I'd carry you home!
But Charon's barge has already sailed - waved adieu to you, ooh and me.
