Sadness poem

Sadness is tears dripping down your face and getting rejected from a new job. 
Sadness makes you think of a very scary cemetery.
Sadness feels like getting separated from your parents.
  Sadness tastes like drinking salty water.
Sadness looks like entering the war
Sadness sounds like a drummer beating on your chest.
Sadness is blue
