Feeling Blue

and post notes and photos about your poem like Emile Pinet.
In pursuit of happiness, you follow
persuasive shadows tethered to the night.
And fall into a pit of depression,
plunged into darkness where there is no light.
Alluring smiles draw you into the dark,
where resistance is slowly stripped away.
And your innocence is stolen by those
who introduced you to the games they play.
Your fragile heart is constantly broken,
shattering into a thousand regrets.
But your pain's numbed by drugs and alcohol,
under whose tutelage your heart forgets.
You never thought this would happen to you,
and it's left you puzzled and feeling blue.
