My Blue Hole

There once was a sadness
that lived deep in my soul
It was there as long as I remember
I called it my "BLUE HOLE"

Some days it was empty
and left me alone
I could function and try to be normal
hardly any sadness was shown

Some days it would sneak up
and surprise me with despair
I'd feel so hopeless and cry so hard
I'd suddenly find myself gasping for air 

At times I could manage 
the impending doom it would bring
Other times I'd wonder why
to this life I would cling

As life went by
day in and day out
I started to wonder
what this BLUE HOLE was all about

So I sat down and thought 
about how I could change
The way it effected me 
and have my mood rearanged

I decided to fight  
this mental enemy so mean
I'd block it's controlling taunts
with the help of a machine

It's called Neuro-Feedback
look it up if you haven't heard
It's changed my life 
without saying a single word
