My Friend Misery

Misery is a friend of mine.
The sweetest company I will every find.

You ask me why and I answer gladly.
Misery brings out the best in me. 

My Creative muse, my Goddess Divine.
when she is present, words flood my mind. 

Happiness is overrated, it can take a hike, get lost.
blissfulness is a disease of chronic writers block. 

Now you know the reason why I prefer to keep a broken heart.
I do not want to lose my souls creative counter part.

We are in love with my despondency, 
me and my friend Misery.
