Feeling Blue
Listen to poem:
I was feeling blue tonight.
Remembering the pain
of you leaving again.
When our children blamed me.
Blue is my favourite colour.
Light blue especially. Reminding
me of clear summer skies.
And warm goodbyes.
Navy blue of night, stars bright.
Moon reflected on still water.
Skinny dips and deep kisses
Before I became your Mrs.
Music can be blue too.
To match my mood.
When I think of you, or try
not to...as the case may be.
Black and blue, my battered heart.
Right from the start.
No Valentine for me.
I'm done with love you see.
