Feeling the Blues
Today I woke up
With a heavy heart
A hopelessness feeling
A dark cloud in my heart
Sad thoughts,
Self-doubts,
A fake smile,
An overthinking mind...
It’s impossible
to feel good all the time
The blues gets to all of us,
It’s just a matter of time…
I put my feelings to paper,
I opened my soul to the words
To try to lighten my heart
To try to lighten my soul
I know that this heaviness inside
Shall pass like everything else does
My mind is my worst enemy
And at these moments it is so loud
that it hurts…
It would be so easy
To close myself off
To shut off everyone
To avoid all the pain
To avoid all the hurt
But I’m not known
For choosing the easy route
I’ll keep opening myself to people
I’ll keep getting hurt
I read something today,
That I need to try to learn…
“CHOOSE PEOPLE WHO CHOOSE YOU”
…and let all the others go…
