Feeling Blue
Feeling Blue
My arms feel so empty, my heart void of soul.
I have tears aplenty, but alas they will not roll.
My body aches through bone and skin to every living pore.
What must be done to fix the pain and sorrow I abore.
I stand here so lonesome, I quietly contemplate.
What holds my fears so tightly, will they dissipate.
My eyes look in the mirror, my foot falls to the floor.
My body carries out the drill so I live a little more.
My mind is quick to figure, my face quick to fake.
My lungs take in the air I breathe, my heart won’t stop to brake.
I know these are all feelings, simple but very true.
I write these words for today because I feel so blue.
