Google Search, What to do When I'm Always Blue?

My brain is flooded I feel so worn I’m always tired My mind is torn Too many options Not enough time I struggle But it’s in my mind I’m here and there I’m happy, I’m sad I’m never both But I’m always mad Many emotions In my head Most times I think, “I’m better off dead.” It hurts to think So I push it down But it builds up Into something … …I can’t turn off Maybe I’m sensitive Maybe I’m soft I try to tell people, But they blow me off Google Search, “What to do… …when I’m always blue?”

Congratulations on placing in my contest. I really appreciated the raw honest take you wrote on my prompt. I really felt "Maybe I’m sensitive Maybe I’m soft." I feel as poets we are feel deeper and those lines really hit. Also "I’m here and there I’m happy, I’m sad I’m never both But I’m always mad Many emotions In my head Most times I think, “I’m better off dead.” That stanza hit deep. Thank you for writing.

Discontentment in the heart does create chaos. Congrats on your contest placement, Erin.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

Writing about it certainly helps, I hope composing this was as cathartic for you as it was for me reading it. Welcome to the soup Erin! xomo

It was! It helped me understand my thoughts a little bit better. I'm glad that you seem to be a little moved by it too! 'The soup' is great, and I'm loving it!!
