An Anatomy Of Melancholy - by A.F. Harrold

If you’re filled with doubt or you’re feeling sort of lonely
If you’ve lost your way or your My Little Pony
If you feel unsure and you can’t find the light
If you’re filled with indecision in the middle of the night
If your cat’s left home and your dog has just died
If you’ve bought a new car but you’ve never learnt to drive
If you are shot by a robber whilst standing in the bank
Or your mother walks in while you’re having a worry

Then spare a tiny thought for the people you meet
On the pavements by the side of the road or the street

because…
some of them are sad ‘cause they can’t do this
and some of them are sad ‘cause they can’t do that
and some of them are sad ‘cause they’ve never had a kiss
and some of them are sad ‘cause they’ve never had a cat
and some of them are sad ‘cause they’re stuck up a steeple
and some of them are sad ‘cause they don’t like people
some of them are sad, yes some of them are sad,
some of them are Portuguese, but most of them are sad

If you find you’re looking for an exit to the maze,
you’ve been trying turnings for several days,
and you’ve tried backtracking but that’s got you nowhere,
if in your frustration you’ve removed your hair

and it’s fallen to the floor in clumps
and you feel like the zookeeper stuck in the zoo
locked inside a cage irregardless of your tryin’‘
cause your keys have been swallowed by a giant little lion

then look through the bars to the people in the crowd
and note the vacant eyes and the sighs out loud

because…
some of them are sad ‘cause they’re very very fat
and some of them are sad ‘cause they’re very very thin
some of them are sad ‘cause they’re just a doormat
and some of them are sad ‘cause they never give in
some of them are sad ‘cause they don’t like drinking
some of them are sad ‘cause they took up thinking
some of them are sad, some of them are sad,
some of them are Interior Designers, but most of them are sad,

some of them are sad ‘cause they’ve got a big winkle,
some of them are sad ‘cause it’s never been seen
some of them are sad when they stroke their pickle
some of them are sad ‘cause it’s turning green
some of them are sad ‘cause people don’t like 'em
some of them are sad and extremely frightened
some of them are sad, some of them are sad,some of them are doing alright,
but most of them are sad.

So if you feel your life has stalled somewhat,
well, maybe it has stalled
or maybe it has flopped,
maybe it’s collapsed in an ineffectual heap
and maybe you said sheeps when you meant to say sheep

Well,
I don’t have advice that will make it all better,
I don’t have any key to undo your fetter,
I don’t have an answer to the doubts that rankle,
nothing I can say to you will help you cancel

the sadness inside,
but you’re not alone
look out your window or listen to your phone

and you’ll see that…
some of them are sad ‘cause of what Freud said
some of them are sad ‘cause of Groucho Marx
some of them are sad ‘cause they’ve been haemorrhoided
some of them are sad and they like to play darts
some of them are sad ‘cause of schadenfreude
some of them are sad ‘cause they always avoid her
some of them are sad, some of them are sad,some of them get by,
but most of them are sad,
some of them are sad ‘cause they don’t have a willysome of them are sad
and they’re very very sillysome of them are sad,
some of them are sad,some of them can smile in public,
but most of them are sad

some of us are sad and don’t like to admit it
some of us are sad and attempt to quit it
some of us are sad (see this poem I’ve penned)
some of us are sad and this is the end.


blehhs.
I am freaking pissed with life.
I can't freaking go back to Singapore.
Why is life that unfair?
All thanks to my pathetic life.

Hais.
Nothing to look forward to le.
I have no idea what is the purpose of my life.
Can anyone tell me?
Is this the life i am suppose to live?

I have been thinking so much these few days.
What is the difference between living and dying
if there is such thing as heaven?
If heaven is that great,
why can't i just go there
and leave all my troubles in earth?
Ekks.
I have no idea
why am I thinking about death.
Maybe it seems appealing to me bahhs.
I want to escape.
