Sadness takes away all colours and absorbs all other feelings like a black hole. It has no temperature, it is neither cold nor warm, it is neither strong nor weak, it is nothing, but you cannot confuse it with anything. For this feeling, I chose an x-ray with the head tilted back, because it is an instinct to hold back tears (her favourite performance). But it also has its own life cycle, so it is worth waiting for the moment when it crumbles into the same useless ashes, from which all absorbed feelings will sprout again.
