Still, being able to write it out in poetry or any other form is a good way of dealing with it and getting it out of your system.
I write short stories. A lot of them have sad beginnings or middles but I do end those on a high note to give the reader relief from the depression that they can bring.
I can't stand depressing books with depressing endings...I walk away from them with the weight of (sometimes fictional) peoples' problems on my shoulders LOL.
I do know peole who like them though...others people's problems make them feel more alive knowing they never had to deal with such sad situations. These people feel the same way about sad songs.

You know childhood is over when a puddle seems like an obstacle instead of an opportunity.
