Sorrow (emotion)
Emotion of prolonged, resigned sadness
Sorrow is an emotion, feeling, or sentiment. Sorrow is more 'intense' than sadness, implies a long-term state and suggests — unlike unhappiness — a degree of resignation. Moreover, in terms of attitude, sorrow can be considered halfway between sadness (accepting) and distress (not accepting)".
